Cops kill 92-year-old, plant dope, lie later
This story shows all the major issues wrong with the War on Drugs: uncritical use of informants, failure to evaluate informants’ motives in snitching, the use of no-knock warrants, lying to get such warrants, lying to cover up afterward, and the ethos that can develop in drug enforcement.
Plus, what in the hell is the difference between a “certified” and an “uncertified” snitch? Do you go somewhere to get a piece of paper? Do you have to reapply or get continuing education credits?
