It was a rental home. The landlord had been on sight at one point with a layout of the home. The renter has nothing invested in the house. Hopefully, she has renter insurance.

She has a gift for understatement.

Regardless of who lived in the house, tearing it down and destroying it to get to the criminal was a terrible thing to do.

Search FR for keyword “robosigning” You can cross reference many other keywords for pertinent articles from there.

My guess is that fallout from the RE crash is rearing its head again as some of those who did not default then are attempting to sell now and are running into problems.

YMMV

The mental state is that all property belongs to the state and authorities to do what they like with it no questions asked. The concept of “Private property” went by the wayside many many years ago.

—— Young’s landlord, Gary Apps, was called in by police-—

So, it wasn’t their home. The dwelling was owned by Gary Apps.

They can find another rental, perhaps even from Gary. The pro criminal, Anti cop media blitz is ati American in nature and

Article mentions “landlord” so Young may have lost contents and belongings, but the owner lost the house.

As a last resort yes, but I am guessing that barricaded gunmen are among the least likely people to have tangible assets.

A similar thing happened a few years ago when an LA cop started shooting people and then escaped to Big Bear and took refuge in a house. The police totally destroyed it.

This ought to be a Fifth Amendment takings case

I believe you meant Fourth Amendment:

The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.

there is no situation so bad that it can’t be made worse by bringing the police into it.

I have to ask, what would we expect the police to do? Leave the suspect in possession of the house?

Have a heart! Could they not have tried lobbing tear gas or smoke bombs in a part of the house, instead of destroying the clothing, toys, family photographs, jewelry, documents, and furnishings of seven people? Are the adults' employers going to give them time off to deal with replacing all they have lost? Have you ever tried to clothe and shoe five children of different sizes, all at once? She probably had bags of clothes and shoes from the older kids to be worn again by the younger kids—all gone now. And winter is coming.

That also applies, but I actually was referring to the Fifth Amendment:

No person shall [...] be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

The renters have had their personal possession destroyed, and the landlord his rental unit destroyed, for the public purpose of getting the bad guy.

(Recall that the police are not bodyguards and have no duty to protect individuals, not even from specific and imminent threats, but merely "protect the community as a whole" by going after bad guys. That is their public purpose.)

In this case, there was no due process, for example, no notification to the landlord, let alone any court hearing, and there should be "just compensation" for the losses sustained by both the renters and the landlord, for the public purpose of protecting the community as a whole from the bad guy who holed up in that particular dwelling.

(In a just world, that is, but, evidently not in America.)
