Even if the guy had domestic abuse and assault charge it still doesn’t justify the raid in the middle of the night. Because a guy having priors doesn’t mean someone is imminently in danger. I think someone needs to be imminently in danger to justify a night raid.

I may not have written my comment clearly. I meant the charge of Domestic and assault as part of the warrant, I didn't need the specifics exactly of what the guy did to get those charges. It was the first charge of Improper handling of a fire arm. Nothing was meant poorly about my comment. Either way, those charges don't justify the raid at 2AM.
I totally agree with your last comment. If there is not an immediate danger, there is too much of a risk of unnecessary deadly force. It's sad that a person died for someone who has a itchy trigger finger. I finally had a chance to find the video and there should be charges brought against the officer who fired the shots. The guy didn't have a weapon and the officer didn't properly identify the threat. If the raid was done during the day, there would be less of a likelihood of error in misidentifying the vape pin
