Cops Raid Wrong Address, Abuse Naked Woman, Kids
"Stop f*cking crying!" Massachusetts SWAT cops berated their victim. "We treated you with respect," they tried to tell her later.


Marianne Diaz said she was awakened about 5:30 a.m. Wednesday by SWAT officers knocking down the door to her Worcester, Massachusetts, apartment as officers wearing helmets and shields burst inside and pointed “big guns” at her head, reported the Telegram & Gazette.

“Stop f*cking crying and take care of your f*cking kids,” one officer commanded, Diaz said.


Diaz said her 7-year-old daughter was shaking in terror as she held her 18-month-old daughter in her lap, and she said officers would not allow her to cover up for about 10 minutes — after a woman officer frisked her nude body.

“It was terrorizing, and the worst thing I’ve ever been through in my life,” Diaz told WBZ-TV. “They were loud, vulgar and disgusting in behavior.”

-----
After officers failed to turn up any drugs, weapons or the target of their warrant, Diaz said they started murmuring to one another.

“Oh sh*t, the snake got away,” one officer said, according to Diaz.

Diaz has asked the city and police department to investigate why the raid was permitted in the first place, but prosecutors have already said it “was executed in the manner it was for the safety of all involved.”

This sort of thing isn't even acceptable toward people who are breaking the law. WAY out of bounds. And people flippantly say we don't have a police state in the making.

Don't worry, they'll come visit everyone in time.

5. Worse than a police state...

this is sanctioned terrorism and is what the 1% have decided is best for us because it keeps us from thinking we have rights or that we can defend our rights. It also is a money maker for the NRA and they like this stuff a whole lot because it will set them up for endless profits, and then there's big pharma who are likely providing the "roids for the perps.

6. NOBODY will convince me these raids are "executed in the manner it was for the safety of all

involved." This is straight-up textbook fascism. Terrorize the populace and beat them into submission.

7. Militarized nighttime and early morning house raids

right out of the gestapo playbook.

America needs a good look in a mirror.

8. Yay drug war!

I suppose we should be grateful that at least this time, no flash grenades were lobbed into any baby's crib.

They would murder you if you tried to stop them from abusing an innocent naked women in front of her children.
