Wow.
That's fucked up, I wonder why she would lie to cover up the murder of an innocent child.
Wow.
The raid was being filmed by a crew from "The First 48," a cable TV reality show, and Allison Howard, a principal photographer with the show, has been charged with perjury and obstruction of justice charges, facing accusations of lying under oath during the investigation.

If I remember the guy they were looking for wasn't there. Also, I highly doubt the grandmother grabbed his gun.

Killing a cop is like killing a nazi = nobody cries.

> Serna said Chavez will not be arrested because authorities don't believe he's a flight risk, and they expect him to show up for his arraignment.
Normal person: arrested and handcuffed for the slightest offense.
Cop: not arrested for murder because he has special cop privileges.

It is perfectly 100% justified. When someone is in active duty as an agent of force, they are a fair target. Hence killing cops is morally justifiable, while the murders of Osama, Awlaki, and Qadafi are unjustifiable.

Imagine you were an absolute monarch with unlimited power. What would you do to this child-murdering prick?

Police should get the benefit of the doubt. It's a hard job with a lot of snap decisions to make.
