DEA raids woman`s Shorewood home after she shops at garden center

Posted: Apr 12, 2014 CHICAGO (FOX 32 News) -

A woman in the southwest suburbs says she woke up to find armed DEA agents pointing guns at her -- all because she shopped at a hydroponic garden center.

Angela Kirkling was driven out of her bed in Shorewood at gunpoint. The DEA had started investigating her because she had made a purchase at a hydroponics shop.

Agents say they thought she was growing pot indoors. Police had also been digging through her garbage and tracking her electrical bill.

Evidently the Chicago area has so little crime that major resources are available to pursue the likes of this woman.

But why were they interested in her anyway? Recording license plates at the gardening business? Credit card receipts? Warranty info?

Thank you for posting that...that issue will be addressed; my wife is still stressed (frisked by a male officer while I was never searched), and it is affecting her health...the topic needs to be approached gingerly.

Seems like every day we hear about how the federal govt. is targeting it’s own citizens for some reason or another. They won’t go after ILLEGALS because they would be to dangerous. Nothing but a bunch of JACK BOOTED THUGS.

It’s time to strip these assholes of their power.

BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY!

Yep.

You may have multiple issues, male cops ain't supposed to kop a free feel, your town should have guide lines in this area, they should have, I think that it is required to have broads shake down broads, unless imitate danger exists.

Any destruction of property? Bringing you into disrepute and slandering your reputation by inference of criminal activity.

Call Logs? Try Kilowatts: Reports Reveal Demands for California Energy Data
06/18/2013
Smart Meters
By Matthew Cagle, Volunteer Attorney, ACLU of Northern California at 4:34pm
Amid recent revelations that the NSA has been secretly spying on phone records and the Internet activity of people in the United States, transparency reports filed by the California utilities companies and obtained by the ACLU of California show that a significant amount of data about the energy use of Californians could be ending up in the hands of the government too. In 2012, a single California utility company, San Diego Gas & Electric, disclosed the smart meter energy records of over 4,000 of its customers pursuant to legal demands – and it’s unclear whether this information was turned over in a private lawsuit, to local law enforcement, or even to the federal government.

No danger...she was just coming home from work via the doctor’s office...she had just been told by her specialist to ‘avoid stress’. My understanding is that a male may frisk IF no female is available. (There wasn’t.) Still...why frisk her, and not me? I know where that leads in MY mind.

...and leave it on to simulate the length of summer days.

I fake out my hens in the winter, at the other end of the daylight. Turn on light at 5 am to approach a 14 hour day for better laying.

Actually there is a Robert Service poem along these lines.

Miner in Yukon, tobacco, no papers, but with a partner with a Bible.

Finally gets an obscure page and rolls a smoke — “It was the worst smoke I ever had.” (approximately)

Get a hold of your police departments ROE, public document, it should cover situations such as this.

In most places they may detain a woman until a female cop is called or an appropriate substitute. I hope your wife didn't threaten to beat the hell out of them. (My Dear EX Would Have, the beating part.)

Get a copy of the Rules and Regs and hold them accountable. If you really want to piss them off find a lawyer, on a contingency basis, and sue the hell out of them.

Find a Lawyer on contingency, tell him the truth, a must, and sue everyone involved.
