WELL NO PERFECT SYSTEM because people are involved. People are human and make mistakes. So I am glad the good out weighs the bad. Airplanes crash (they say) in small percentages. That is great also, unless your on the plane. Life brings dangers.

Good thoughts TXI. I worked Narcotics. I was deep undercover. I also worked organized crime undercover. CI's are nothing more than criminals charged with lessor offenses. They lie, but if the Narc has done his job this can of mistakes are few and far between. I can tell you mistakes happen because we are people. Kevin no system is important including the FBP. The percentage of the bad shoots and bad warrants are small. The percentage of bad police are small.

Maybe just maye if we start throwing a few renegade cops in jail, they might start believing in " to protect and serve". instead of storm trooper tactics. I am willing to bet if they go to prison they won't last to long.
Not enough is known about that case, at least to me, to celebrate the burning at the stake of the officers involved. While I may not be afforded as much were I in the same position, I will assume for the time being that they are innocent until I see evidence to the contrary.

I do know the officers originally reported a crack purchase from that woman in that house. That was supposedly the justification for the warrant. The problem came when no crack or powder cocaine was found after the woman was shot. IIRC, the police also indicated they had at least one marked vehicle in front of the home at the time they serviced the warrant. They also reported that the woman fired first.
Very well said! Too many people are ready to hang the police out to dry. There are bad apples in every bunch, but no all are bad. I have seen officers cursed for writing tickets just to have to turn around and go to the violators home later for a family disturbance, etc. . . There are a lot of who want the drugs to stop destroying our families, but are quick to use terms as "gestapo tactics, etc. . " I appreciate the job our LEO do.
