[Police illegally raided Kenneth Walker's apartment b/c they had the wrong address, didn't announce themselves before breaking in, and summarily executed EMT Breonna Taylor while she was sleeping. Walker stood his ground and fired back, hitting one of the killer cops in the leg.] https://twitter.com/KYFOP614/status/1243557106487361536 …
Bonus: the person LMPD was actually looking for *had already been arrested* before their illegal raid of the wrong apartment https://www.wdrb.com/in-depth/attorneys-claim-lmpd-officers-killed-26-year-old-emt-in-botched-police-raid/article_4bb33de6-704e-11ea-bb3c-4785530c8830.html …pic.twitter.com/7O4dtO4VIr
Double Bonus: none of the officers involved in the illegal raid and murder wore bodycams, because LMPD doesn't want to risk facing the consequences of their officers' bad decisions Too incompetent to raid the right address, but *juuust* competent enough to testify in courtpic.twitter.com/pMns0znEPd
So keep these sorts of things in mind when you see gibberish tweeted by @KYFOP614 and other police unions
Even when police use the wrong address, to find a person they already arrested, invade your home, and murder your gf, they'll still find a way to pretend it was your fault
All while they demand freedom to violate your rights without pesky things like bodycams to get in their way
Also, Miss Taylor was a black EMT – one who *volunteered at 2 hospitals* in addition to her regular work. So it's an appropriate time to remind y'all of the 5th Rule of @fsckemall:
"When people say 'Blue Lives Matter,' they don't mean the dark blue ones"https://twitter.com/fsckemall/status/950142197332049920 …
Police will continue to do dumb 
, even when being recorded
Start at the source
There are no new stories, just new names & jurisdictions
The Wire was a documentary

Likely, yes But since it was cops doing the killing, they'll be exalted as heroes "putting their lives on the line" by the local prosecutors, and protected with qualified immunity by the courts https://twitter.com/no_scooters/status/1260576078764093444 …
Because of course they did 
Y'all think @KYFOP614 knows I can still talk about them and encourage others to do the same even when I'm blocked?

It was a 1am raid. It's only a clearly established violation when it's a 2am raid.https://twitter.com/rscholtz/status/1260578066713190401 …

He can sue, but will almost certainly lose on qualified immunity grounds
This is the culture of police lawlessness that the US Supreme Court has created with its qualified immunity decisions

If there isn't a functionally identical case already decided somewhere – same type of raid, same time, same warrant, etc – it's not going to count as "clearly established" Here my understanding from the news is the wrong address was put on the warrant 1/https://twitter.com/rscholtz/status/1260579530495987715 …
In that scenario – where the warrant info is wrong but not obviously defective on its face – the courts have held police are entitled to rely on the warrant because a "disinterested" magistrate issued it
Even when it was issued based on info the police provided
2/2
@rscholtz
I *was,* just realistically so?

It doesn't just excuse sloppy clumsiness – it even excuses outright malice Police got qualified immunity just a few months ago for stealing a bunch of rare coins seized in a raid. It wasn't "clearly established" they couldn't commit thefthttps://twitter.com/armaverus/status/1260583043066212353 …
In case y'all missed that story, here's the March 2019 thread:https://twitter.com/greg_doucette/status/1108477962599522305 …
There's an effort to convince the Supreme Court to backtrack & reverse some of its Qualified Immunity precedents; @ConLawWarrior recently submitted an amicus brief to the Court on that issue
*But* I'm a cynic on this, and IMO it'll need legislator actionhttps://twitter.com/backstroke619/status/1260587126929993733 …
Police, especially police unions,, *always* argue they were attacked. They have raised professional victimhood to an art form And 2A groups never speak up when it's a black victim killed by a cop, until it's so outrageous it becomes politically expedienthttps://twitter.com/abefroman/status/1260583973329215488 …
[And by "the virus," they mean cowboy cops no-knock raiding the wrong apartment and summarily executing a black EMT while she slept, then insisting they did nothing wrong]https://twitter.com/kystatefop/status/1245416782824968194 …
Yep. If the warrant is issued with the wrong info, the courts say it's the magistrates fault and the police had the right to rely on the warrant And you can't sue the magistrate, because they get absolute immunity for their official acts 1/ https://twitter.com/narnianexile/status/1260593915234787328 …
Think of it as money laundering, but for incompetence Police give the magistrate bad info, the magistrate rubberstamps it, and "voila!" police have a defective warrant they can hide behind when they kill a black EMT for sport 2/2 @narnianexile
On here from anon accounts, yes In the real world, I'm the one they call when they get charged for something and the union won't save themhttps://twitter.com/mightybattlecat/status/1260595187711172608 …
Police routinely argue that failing to answer the door creates exigent circumstances for forced entry, because someone could be flushing drugs down the toilet or some such There is -0- respect for preservation of life, esp if the lives lost are melanatedhttps://twitter.com/neumarkdn/status/1260608352117116929 …
You'd think that, right??
But it makes too much sense, so the courts have repeatedly said no

That particular comment was gallows humor, but it's not far off from the truthhttps://twitter.com/agtmadcat/status/1260611970182479874 …
It's usually criming when they're off-duty, or when they get ratf*cked by their colleagueshttps://twitter.com/doctorgoatmd/status/1260611933927071745 …
Fantastically lopsided. I can't find the study that was done right now, but someone analyzed it and found that out of the subset judges w/ crim law experience before taking the bench, something like 95%+ were ex-prosecutorshttps://twitter.com/mrskippy69/status/1260612607465136128 …
Some are better than others. But yes the judge often ends up being a 2nd prosecutor.https://twitter.com/armaverus/status/1260635944031584256 …
The police always provide the info, that's the crazy part But since the magistrate is "neutral and detached" (magic language), the cops then magically get presumed to be acting in "good faith" (again, magic language) when they use the rubberstamped dochttps://twitter.com/matthew__cline/status/1260663804767006721 …
