I was going to post this so glad to see you did.
Bottom line, HPD executed 2 people. Chief Acevedo has a lot to answer for.
No, execute, in this context, means to execute a judicially ordered death warrant. This was not an execution, this was a murder. Felony murder. The raid was felonious, based on a search warrant obtained by perjury. Any evidence of criminal conduct against the two would have been the fruit of the poisonous tree, and inadmissible. Z
I am not anti-cop, I am anti-criminal, regardless of whether of not he wears a badge.
I am a Houston resident.
In the past, I had a lot of respect for the professionalism of HPD, even in the face of leadership that amounted to no more than grandstanding politicians (Lee P Brown, Elizabeth Watson).
Now with Arthur the @$$hole as chief, that respect is gone.
BTW I had an encounter with the chief when he was in Austin. 2015 USA Cycling Cyclocross National Championships at Zilker Park.
Murdered.
Please.
Of what crime were the couple convicted? NONE!
What court sentenced them to death? NONE!
They were murdered.
The Houston "Police" Department consists of murderes and conspirators to commit murder.
Don't like the truth? Prove me wrong! Arrest the "officers" involved, charge them with murder, aggravated assault, breaking and entering, deprivation of civil rights, conspiracy, perjury etc.
Until then, EVERY HPD "officer" is a suspect.
