Police raid house kill dogs

[skypilot]

Scary article about Maryland Police raiding a house and killing the dogs because a package of marijuana was delivered there. Seems like the people in the house had nothing to do with the marijuana.
Hope they sue the hell out of the police dept. In a case like this I think some of the individual cops should go to jail.

Practically no chance ...

Cops almost never go to jail, since their handlers know it would mean these stupid, arrogant bullies would become cringing, wimpering bitches after a few days with the other prisoners.

It's a truly outragious story although there is more to it than is sumarized above. I note that the FBI has launched an investigation of the conduct of the Prince George's County Police.

They showed the press conference on CNN. Cops shoot the mayor's dogs, whopps... Not the typical hood shown on COPS episodes either. Maybe the COPS producers can still work with it.

There were other homes raided in the same way. If it was not the Mayor’s dogs that were shoot I doubt we or anyone else would have heard about it.

Scary stuff.

What the drug dealers do is find someone in some random neighbourhood that is gone for most of the day. Then they use a delivery service, maybe their own even, to deliver the junk to that address. Since they figure that no one's going to be home for awhile, one of their guys comes by to pick up the package off the door mat. Ideally, the residents at that address have no idea of what happened.

I think the cops probably knew this, and they figure that if someone at that address was actually home, and accepted the package, then something's up.

Then they went all haywire, imo, with the no-knock warrant and the guns. I think the zeal to get the no-knock warrant, along with the guns-blazing approach, gets them in deep trouble when the target is a truly innocent, random person.

In Michigan --in the Detroit area, cops are always shooting and killing dogs, you can not sue expect for the value of the dog--if you can even prove they had no right-reason to shoot it.

Drug dealers do use them to guard their homes--and drugs, mostly pit bulls...if the police call animal control it take too long and the drugs could be flushed away....its sad the dogs die cause of people like dopers.

No, the Police did not care about it, as the Nazis did not care about it, either.
America more and more resembles to the Nazis - or the Communists-- in a lot of ways, this is an excellent example.
