They did find marijuana in Pates sons room.
The sheriffs department insists that the marijuana vindicates the raid.
There was a drug operation that was certainly going on in this house, said Whitmore.
Why do I have the feeling this “drug operation” consisted of one guy’s personal stash?
WWWWD
or had done?
This thing stinks to high heaven. The coroner “released Mallorys body to an out-of-state relative, and Pate claimed he was cremated before her own investigators could perform an autopsy.”? WTF would they do that and not to his widow? There seems to be a recent rash of situations where law enforcement or other authorities are arranging cremations that preclude further investigation through autopsy.
Somebody in law enforcement (or their relative/”friend”) had something against this family and the whole “smell” business is likely a ruse and pure bull shit. The widow should be suing for much more than $50 million; she’d get it if I were on the jury and could cause that to happen.
Why a no-knock raid? What was wrong with a warrant and a knock on the door? Grandpa wasn’t going anywhere, they’ve disclosed no sources to indicate a presumption of serious or dangerous criminality, or an ability to hide evidence. No evidence, either.
Well, he was acting in a hostile manner toward the King’s men . . . just like the woman who was exiting the car with a baby in the backseat in DC a couple of weeks ago.
...meanwhile, Walter White cooks on.
I wish FR had a "like" button...
Stupid cops - the meth lab was down the street, under the “Vamonos Pest” termite tent.
No, but they do have a 9mm jacketed hollow point for a d*ck.
“how can some pot in the home justify the death penalty”
It can’t justify anything that happened. The idiot cop can talk all he wants about “justification”, but he might as well talk to the wall.
It’s not going to get him anywhere.
The tax payers pay any lawsuits against police departments. The Deputy Fifes pay nothing.
Do the blackshirts ever carry out a knock warrant? Do they even train for that any more?
This event occurred for one simple reason....the badgemonkeys have
learned they can commit these crimes with impunity. They are NEVER
held personally responsible for their conduct. In a small minority of
these criminal actions a lawsuit by the victims prevails. When that happens
the cost and pain is born by the larger subset of victims....the taxpayer.
Unless and until the system is changed to insure these brigands and
criminals in uniform feel the pain personally by doing hard time and
facing real financial penalty NOTHING will change.
If a citizen victim prevails during the combat phase of these crimes he
still loses as no matter what the facts are as he WILL be railroaded for
murdering one of the praetorian guard and the badged criminal will
be lionized and granted the status of minor saint.
Personally.....if something like this happened to a blood relative of mine
I would simply assume hunting season was open and proceed as needed
to harvest as many badgemonkeys as possible.
..and I think he has some scary guns too.
A garand loaded with just about anything will do a job on a vest at short range.
“The sheriffs department insists that the marijuana vindicates the raid.”
Given that marijuana is legal in CA, that’s an interesting legal position.
Must’ve been that new Breaking Bad cologne from Macy’s he received for Fathers Day...
I think I smell Meth
Better be careful. They've been known to get the address wrong.
