Much more to it, the cops did a no knock raid on the wrong house if I recall. The cops were wrong, period. In this day of age of surveillance, there are many options in tracking, a citizens home being wrongfully raided is inexcusable, ALL no knock raids should be abolished, period.
Actually, it was not the wrong apartment and it was not a No-knock raid. You’re missing some important facts.
” the cops did a no knock raid on the wrong house if I recall”
Nope. Correct house. I oppose no knock warrants, but there is no doubt the cops were LEGALLY doing their job. And were shot at, and then responded.
No, they had a warrant for her apartment due to her past association with a drug dealer (which she no longer maintained).
What is problematic is they knew their target was NOT AT THE APARTMENT, but still executed a No Knock, instead of asking her to come in for questioning. The target was taken into custody at approximately the same time about 10 miles away.

My friend, you have swallowed the mainstream media/civil rights narrative hook, line, and sinker. The police did not raid the wrong house. This house was suspected as a delivery residence for drugs and a stash house for money. Ms. Taylor was dating two drug dealers and having packages shipped to her apartment. She rented cars for drug dealers, and a dead body was discovered in one of these rental cars. GPS tracking and physical surveillance proved that drug dealers were picking up packages at the apartment and driving them to a drug shop (empty house). The police had Taylor on wiretaps with drug dealers talking about the drug shop, drug money, etc. BTW, the cops KNOCKED loudly. Taylor’s drug-dealing b/f, who shot at the cops, admitted that he heard the cops banging on the door (he heard banging, but didn’t realize they were cops-—probably b/c he was high on weed).
With that said, I believe that the police should refrain from entering houses when people are inside. They do this so they catch the drug dealers red-handed. It is safer to wait for the occupants to leave and then search.
Right house, but the individual they were looking for wasn’t there.
look at all of the trolls all over this thread “it was murder” “they had the wrong house” ... Get. Bent.
you recall wrong. They were at the correct house, no knock warrants *which I disagree with* were used regularly. Her ex boyfriend had mailed drugs to THAT address. Her current boyfriend answered the chaos by shooting at the door, hit an officer and fire was returned. Unfortunately for her she was hit by RETURN fire. BTW, no knock warrants have been outlawed.
The lawyer for Briana’s family said they were at the wrong house. They were not.
According to the DA, they did announce themselves - it is on tape.
If you dig just a little deeper than the MSM Pablum, you will find that she had some interest prison phone conversations recently with the ex about drug money.
This was not an innocent. She did not deserve to be shot, but that is more on the heads of those she hung out with.
