Wonder if she’s unvaccinated? Maybe she volunteered for a Republican campaign in the past?
This amounts to reckless and negligent conduct on the part of the officers. They shouldn’t be sued, well, they should also be sued, but, primarily, they should be criminally charged for armed home invasion under color of authority, with enhancements for use of firearms and with possible NFA elements to those firearms. At some point incompetence no longer satisfies as an explanation for raids like this; at some point these actions amount to criminal malfeasance.
At least they didn’t strip search her.
Ouch!
That was cold.
Of course, the handcuffs were probably cold too.
This thread is useless without pictures.
Trust me. You don’t want pictures
Future BATFE officers to be sure.

This case is a perfect example of why most qualified immunity should end. Officer incompetence should not be at the expense of the taxpayer and there should be personal incentive for an officer to not be incompetent - there currently is little enough of that in most departments.
With signing bonuses…
Maybe she spoke up at a school board meeting.
Not to worry.

We need to provide our peace officers with better pay and training. We need to make some changes with qualified immunity. Why don’t police have to carry personal malpractice insurance just like health care workers? I have seen that work when a surgeon with too many complications has to retire because he can no longer afford insurance. The police need to quit acting like occupation forces , afraid that everyone is trying to kill them. Dynamic entries into homes needs to become rare. Remember common law concept of “your home is your castle”?

You mentioned something important there. In the old days cops usually saw themselves as “peace officers”.
There are exceptions. But now most cops see themselves as “law enforcement officers” instead. This is no minor detail. The mindset has changed. It has gone from “peace” to “enforcement”.
FTA: Young recently rejected a settlement offer of $1 million made at a mediation hearing this spring. While she is not seeking a specific dollar amount, her attorneys called that offer a “lowball,” as it’s less than half of what was paid out to a similar victim.
It seems like the attorneys are playing games to increase their cut. If $1mil is not enough, stop the nonsense and come back with a counter offer.
