"Officers claim they announced the warrant and proceeded to clear the house, when they encountered an armed Westcott pointing his gun at police. Officers proceeded to fatally shoot him."

No, Westcott wasn't killed over $2.00 worth of pot. He was shot because he aimed a gun at a policeman.

Allegedly. If he did he was merely pointing his gun at illegal home invaders.

If the dogs start warning me and I get a weapon whoever comes crashing through the door is going to the morgue. I hope folks here will remember that. I don’t grow drugs, have drugs or sell drugs. There is no reason for the police to be coming round here. I suppose I would not do anything different if there were.

He was killed because the police acted as though they were entering Pablo Escobar’s house. Arrest him when he leaves the home, then execute the search warrant.

He was shot for protecting his home.

Hope you remember not to point guns when somebody breaks your door down CLAIMIMG to be the police.

Did you mean:

No, Westcott wasn't killed over $2.00 worth of pot. He was shot because THE POLICE SAID he aimed a gun at a policeman.

Actually he aimed his gun at a criminal who had invaded his home under color of authority. Mr. Westcott knew he had done nothing at all to warrant a raid.
