I don't follow the "plenty of blame" on this one, the cops chose to assault this house at that time, they could have opted for many lesser aggressive behaviours, including stakeouts, warrants etc, but they chose the most aggressive form, and a 7yo innocent lost her life due to that simple choice. I don't see blame all around. just excuses for an overreaching decision on the use of force.

The entire raid procedure needs to be reevaluated from the top down, wouldn't you agree?

And at the heart of it, this guy gave the police a reason to raid his place, no? We're not talking about an innocent civilian.

And if there was a struggle upon the police entering that's a factor as well.

I'm not clear on how the cops are the only ones to blame.

Simple, because they chose the time and place. It sounds like she was burned by the flash bang. In other words, the cops were overly aggressive, they didn't check out the possible surroundings, and didn't know the occupants of the house. The police have backed off the "struggle" and say the officer may simply have collided with a 46 yo grandma.

it was a duplex and from what i hear he was arrested in the opposite house but police had a search warrant for the entire unit and thats why they are saying he was arrested in the house.

also i have read and stated before that the neighbor all allegedy told the police there were kids in the house before they entered.

it remains to be seen if the cops are the only ones to blame. if in fact they had no reason for being in that side of the duplex, that means the family of the little girl did absolutly nothing wrong. i'm sure we will find out more details very shortly
