Police state ping. Roaming assassination squads. Leftist union cops out of control.
You screw up even half that bad in private business and you’re fired, and subsequently served with papers. Any real man who committed an act like this would end his own life after making everything which was his, part of the survivors of the family. But there are very few honorable people in law enforcement. Their honor is only to each other, their power, and paycheck.

IMHO The victim was executed because he had damaging info on someone/thing/op within the LE organization. Witness neighbor said he heard 2 different auto weapons fired, 45 sec pause then 2-3 more rounds sounding like a shotgun were fired. Witnesses opinion of weapons used could be questioned but not the intent of several extra shots fired to finish the job. Other releases by PCSO indicate an officers weapon was accidentally discharged. I think the other Officers opened fire on that account and not to any supposed verbal threat by the victim. It would’t have mattered if the victim was a Saint or a Demon after the A/D, Swat provided their own reason for escalation. That the Vic held his fire through the door battering, A/D and final volley tells me he wasn’t sure who was busting in. He had doubts, he held fire. Same can’t be said of the certified professionals.
Who bangs on a door for 45 seconds when the situation warrants a swat team deployment? That doesn’t pass the smell test. Why are we getting info on what was seized in the raid after records were sealed? Smell test again. Why the info (from top link) that license plates were run? That tells me the LEO’s have a security leak and/or mole working in or for the dept. WHY? For whom? Too many holes, too many errors to think its a coincidence.
And my little jab for the evening- Why do we have a swat team running amok with full auto weapons to serve search warrants in crowded residential areas, and then require the Bortac unit, in the open desert, to use beanbag guns to subdue border bandits and smugglers? WTF???
