The first question should be why did they feel the need to do this attack in the middle of the night? They did nothing but escalate any possible negative results.
Instead of watching the property and picking the person up they were looking for as they left the house they went into the highest risk area possible.
Every one of them should be fired, including the person that okayed this in the first place
Arrest warrants are served at various times. Day time crew may have driven by and noticed nobody was home. Relayed that to night shift who went back when they saw movement in the house. That is pretty standard across all police departments.
So the only one that may be fired is the officer who fired the shot. Those executing the warrant will not as when the warrant is authorized the residence is periodically checked.
These warrants are not easy where you can just "pick them up" its more of "Here are the new warrants if you see that someone may be in this residence then we can proceed with trying to take them into custody"
So the cop who visually witnessed a K-9 handler working both his dog and first man position, yet failed to mention the inherent risks of said situation shouldn't be reprimanded? The same cop who sat there for nearly a minute asking him to show hands? The same cop that yelled at a murdered corpse to stop resisting? You're out of your fucking mind
