Glenn Dee, regardless of what the helmet cam shows, let us not lose sight of the end results of this search warrant "service": This was (remember), a search warrant, for an address ... it was not an arrest warrant for a named individual. By electing to serve this SEARCH warrant when they did and in the way they did, they created a situation that got the male resident killed, blatantly endangered the lives of an unarmed woman and small child ... and when they finally made their search they found ... NOTHING illegal.
How could justice or public safety possibly have been served by this action?
Why was it necessary (actually, it WASN'T necessary, so why did they choose) to execute the search when the guy was known to be home, since they knew when and where he worked and could easily have served the warrant when just the wife was home -- or done a smash-and-grab while the wife was at the supermarket?
