SWAT Team: “Sorry, Not The Right House Ma’am”

SAN ANTONIO – A Leon Valley family is suing several law enforcement agencies after authorities mistakenly raided their home in a search for drugs and left them traumatized, according to a lawsuit filed Monday.
On Nov. 14, the suit said, Lucil Basco was on her way to pick up her son from Empower Behavioral Health, which offers clinic-based applied behavior analysis services to learners across the state.
During her drive, Basco was “unlawfully” pulled over for not using “her blinker, her license plate was obstructed, and she did not pull over immediately,” the suit said.
After a search of her vehicle, Basco was given a warning ticket. An hour later, the front door to her home was smashed in and she and her 5-year-old son were met with masked, armed officers on a “narcotics search warrant,” according to the suit.
Authorities placed Basco in handcuffs while they searched for drugs in her home, breaking down two additional doors inside it. The raid was based on “information from a confidential informant,” the suit said.
According to a police report, the informant pointed out Basco’s house as a “stash house” to BCSO deputies and agents with the Drug Enforcement Administration. The report said an entry team knocked and announced their arrival “several times” before forcing their way in to Basco’s home.
A BCSO deputy was later told it was “not the right house” and no drugs were found inside the home, according to the report.
Oh well. At least the cops got to go home safely at the end of their shift. That’s what’s really important here.

I can clear up 80 percent of what’s wrong with her son. No more artificial colors, sugars of any kind, corn syrups (sugars) of any kind, no preservatives, chemical salts, chemical preservatives, food additives, ‘natural’ flavors, foods with chemicals at all or words you can’t pronounce in the ingredients, in fact just feed him food that is organically raised without hormones uses no GMO feeds and only food that comes in a skin, a leaf, a pod, a peel, or shell and none that comes in a can, a box, a package, or a wrapper. If you want it cleared up 100 percent by the time he’s grown you might just have to love him enough to give him a whoopin’ and most importantly of all, you should introduce him to Christ Jesus. Did you know that demons are real? You’re welcome.
Oh, and may the LORD destroy the police and their drug and Red Flag snitches. There is no crime against the State. The State is not a person.

Is literacy a disqualifying factor in the police hiring process?

@revjen45: Actually yes, in some jurisdictions it is – or at least being educated is a disqualifier. My son-in-law was passed over for a job with the Po-po in a nearby town after passing the intelligence test with flying colors and the physical test as well. The reason provided to him was that he’s too intelligent, that they had found out that intelligent officers use “too much” of their own discretion and the dumber ones are more likely to simply follow orders and procedures without questioning anything. And the Chief preferred the ignorant officers over any who may have questioned him about anything.

Right on David! The same applies to jurors. The Reichsshysters prefer jurors on the Bovine level of intelligence, the better to be manipulated. Your SIL likely IS too intelligent for that town’s PD. Their loss.

No Fred, you can’t. It sounds like her son has autism, not being a brat. Your suggestions for feeding him real food instead of manufactured Frankie crap is a good start. It won’t cure the vaccine injuries that resulted in his autism diagnosis. BTDT. We did organic, gluten-free, casein-free, soy-free(and still do). We did years of ABA therapy, Tomatis listening therapy, hyperbaric oxygen therapy, IV immunoglobulin therapy. Finally learned she had ulcerative colitis/Crohn’s disease and got that treated. All of it helped, none of it reversed the brain injury she suffered. Don’t talk about things you don’t have full knowledge of.

I’m sorry. That’s awful.
