On June 14, 2023, the United States Marshals Service listed Joshua Smiley on the “15 Most Wanted” list. He was the 26 year-old male suspect in an August 2021 shooting death of a man in Mobile, Alabama. On June 20, 2023, about a week after Joshua Smiley was put on the most wanted list, he was peacefully apprehended in Avon, Indiana - a suburb of Indianapolis. It was no big deal. They found him in just a couple of days, called him out, he came out and was arrested with no issues. It was a success. So why did the US Marshals raid Cathy George’s home in Sandy Springs, Georgia three months later?

Regarding the above, they were probably looking for information, not to arrest like they want you to think.

Mobile police responded to a home on Amsterdam Street on Aug. 13, 2021, where investigators say they found Crum dead inside.
It wasn’t until almost two years later Smiley was captured, hundreds of miles away.
Smiley was added to the U.S. Marshals Service’s 15 most wanted list in June of 2023.
Seven days later he was apprehended.
He also was wanted in Indiana for a federal bond violation on a federal drug charge in Fort Wayne.
In addition, Smiley was convicted for his role in a fatal 2018 shooting in Fort Wayne.
He received a five-year prison sentence, with two years suspended.
My big problem is when police (and feds) screw up like this, they rarely apologize, make restitution or take corrective action. The rest on qualified immunity and either deny, blame the victim or pretend it did not happen.
An apology and fixing what they broke would go a long way in many of these cases.
Sounds like another instance in which the cops relied on AI. Not long ago, a woman in Tennessee was flagged by AI for committing fraud in North Dakota, a state she had never visited. She was held in jail for six months before the mistake was discovered, but as a result of her lengthy incarceration, she lost everything she owned, including her home and her dog.
John Wick would not let this go. That Tennessee woman needs a gun and justice against those who messed her up. A home or freedom is one thing, but the dog requires revenge.
Many people have said that law enforcement personnel should be required to have malpractice insurance like Doctors and all people who have cars do.
if you do a lot of stupid stuff or are just basically incompetent eventually premiums become such that you can no longer afford it and have to find a different job.
I have a friend who has a state job, she tells me all about the shit that goes on and how basically you cannot be fired.
I have never had a union job and worked my ass off in all kinds of sweatshops so I have a hard time even understanding this, however I have had way too many encounters with Revenue enforcer Cops so yes I think many of them should not be employed.
( I had a friend who was a county deputy and was fired for trying to expose departmental corruption, one of the few things they can actually fire you for )
Yet...
I'm not sure what you mean when you say, "they were probably looking for information, not to arrest like they want you to think." Surely you're not suggesting it is appropriate for 15 armed police to arrive at your house in the early morning hours without a warrant and try to batter your door down in order to get some information!
Ruh roh. Somebody didn’t recall the warrant. Should have been done by the arresting officer, department, and court.
