We'll never get rid of no-knock warrants entirely and maybe shouldn't, but one reasonable reform would be to require some minimal prior surveillance before executing them.
Why shouldn't no-knock warrants be banned? They don't have to knock gently; they certainly could yell from outside the door, but how can one possibly justify a resident in his own house, with a legal gun, shooting someone who is inside his house and just broke in? Without prior notice, how could he possibly know it was cops, and even if they said they were cops, how would he know immediately they really were? Fundamental principles in home defence - if they're outside the house, get your gun but hold your fire; if they're inside the house, fire away.
Why is it that basic common sense is lacking in both of these scenarios?
Was the alleged criminal supposed to be armed and dangerous?

... Was the alleged criminal supposed to be armed and dangerous?
It is a homicide investigation, but details re who they were looking for and why remain sketchy. This suggests to me that there are fuck-ups we don't know about yet. We'll see . . . unless a coverup is successful.

A North Carolina State Highway Patrol trooper has died after being struck by a vehicle driven by his brother, also a trooper, while the two were responding to a traffic stop, authorities say. The detained driver involved in the traffic stop, later identified as Dusty Luke Beck, was also killed....
The Trooper collided with the stationary patrol vehicle and struck Trooper John Horton and Beck, who were both standing along the roadside....
There has been no information released about why Beck was pulled over or what the conditions were at the time of the crash....
I will guess that the reason why "there has been no information released about why Beck was pulled over...." is because the state is not very proud of the fact that they've now lost one trooper, possibly two trooper cars, and a citizen all because of an inoperative tail light or something hanging from the mirror of Beck's car or some other asinine reason. It just makes for a bad equation.
... A crash report from North Carolina Highway Patrol says the road surface was icy on the day of the wreck....
According to the incident report, just released by the North Carolina Department of Public Safety, Trooper James Horton was going 90 mph and traveled off the road to the right, colliding with his brother's parked patrol car at a speed of 70 mph. The report says Trooper James Horton then hit Trooper John Horton and Dusty Beck before hitting a guard rail. The collision sent Trooper John Horton’s car nearly 90-feet on impact....
I figured this whole episode was under the influence of improper influence just because the brother called for backup (he must have been skeered) and once the backup arrived and then went off the rails into the non paved surface, he totally fucked up. After all, it's hard to make a sudden stop on grass or dirt at anything over about 30mph. I predict no charges for the brother just from sympathy and corruption. 50% sympathy, 50% corruption. In this case they go hand in hand. I would't be surprised if posthumous awards are not forthcoming. That's how they roll.

... Cynthia Perkins, 36, was sentenced Friday to 40 years of hard labor without the possibility of probation or parole. She accepted a plea bargain on Monday to charges that include second-degree rape, producing child pornography and conspiracy mingling of harmful substances, according to the Louisiana attorney general.
The deal requires her cooperation against ex-husband Dennis Perkins, 44, a former SWAT team commander for the Livingston Parish Sheriff’s Office scheduled to stand trial later this year.
Cynthia Perkins admitted assisting her husband in sexually assaulting a juvenile, helping her husband film a juvenile bathing, and lacing cupcakes with her then-husband’s sperm before feeding them to schoolchildren.
The couple were arrested in October 2019 and indicted on 150 charges, according to LivingstonParishNews.com....
Cynthia Perkins pleaded guilty on Feb. 14 to multiple charges including second-degree rape, producing child pornography, and conspiracy mingling of harmful substances. Perkins has agreed to testify against her ex-husband, former sheriff’s lieutenant Dennis Perkins, at his trial later this year
Baton Rouge suburb Livingston Parish is not some hick backwater. Its population is 142,282.
Well, they're slime-balls fershure, but I really don't understand the sperm-laced cupcakes. What's the point, if any? I mean, shitting in the pie in (I think) "The Help" had a purpose. Spitting into an obnoxious customer's latte has a purpose. What do they get out of feeding sperm in cupcakes to some random kids who probably wouldn't even notice it unless it was a schmear on top.
