Former Chief Art Acevedo served with papers on deadly raid.

Been a long time since happened. 26th will be 5 years.

George Floyd happened a year and a half later, police convicted of allowing him to die from a drug overdose, in jail and one stabbed in jail and family paid what 27 million dollars in that case already.
That's awesome that Acevedo finally got served!

Woman who made 911 call pleads guilty.
What a awful person. She earned a spot in hell for that.

DA finds that nearly 70 people may have been convicted on false evidence given by Gerald Goines.
He should go for life with no parole.
How many other cops knew about his actions and said nothing?
The Thin Blue Line is real. When police have to operate in leftist jurisdictions like California I can honestly sympathize that police don't want to be punished for doing the right or necessary thing. But in this case clearly Goines had gone rogue and needed to be taken off the street. Sad that he was allowed to continue until this kind of blowup occurred.

Re: 5 Officers Shot In Houston - Pray

Her alleged motives remain unclear....She has an extensive arrest record dating back to 1996 for crimes such as theft, assault, drug possession, assault and driving without a license.
It's not unheard of for CI's to be "paid" in drugs. It would be sad if she did all that just to get drugs.

Re: 5 Officers Shot In Houston - Pray

Cell phone video of 2 shots being fired inside the home 30 minutes after the shootout? Wow!

Officers lied to get the warrant...and after the raid... FBI investigating...

If Art can't give answers to the DA, perhaps he needs a new job.

Officer at center of investigation retires.
In 2002, Goines was in trouble for keeping crack cocaine he’d purchased in a drug buy. The evidence was found unlogged in the toolbox of his city vehicle.

That particular problem persisted, because drugs were also found in Goines' city vehicle after the botched raid in January.
It would appear that Goines had a habit of keeping unlogged narcotics on hand. Unlogged narcotics have been used by other police departments to manufacture crimes

72 year old cancer patient with a feeding tube was unaware his home was raided until he was arrested and spent three days in jail.

https://abc13.com/man-says-gerald-goine ... e/5150459/

Walked by while a drug house was being raided and got arrested.

I guess this is all going to be costing taxpayers plenty.
Wow!

It is common for drug dealers to take over houses of older people who are living in the hospital. Talk about being victimized twice.

Press conference this afternoon.

Mayor, Art and DA.

Art back tracking no knock with someone’s approval.
Interesting turn of events. I am glad the issue has their full attention and they are working to prevent a re-occurrence.

Houston police end no knock warrants.
Needs to happen nationwide.
Very good to hear Houston is severely restricting no knock warrants.

Agreed that this needs to happen nationwide.

Re: 5 Officers Shot In Houston - Pray

Interesting that Goines is worried about being judged unfairly but apparently not about the events that lead up to 4 other injured officers and 2 dead home owners.

But I suppose however things work out for Goines, getting shot in the face and neck is probably not something he's going to want to repeat

Re: 5 Officers Shot In Houston - Pray

I salute the Houston MSM for covering this story. We have the right to be safe in our own homes.

Looks like Acevedo has come a long way from initially blaming guns and the 2nd Amendment. It's like Sheriff Scott Israel Part 2.

I wonder what Rep. Eric Swalwell thinks about what 1 disabled vet defending his home with a revolver can do?

Here's the WaPo article that's linked in the tweet:
Houston police chief Art Acevedo urged Congress to act on the issue of gun violence Wednesday, saying "our streets, our neighborhoods are truly drowning in the blood of our victims and in the tears of their loved ones.”

At a hearing of the House Judiciary Committee dedicated to gun policy, Acevedo declared, “Gun violence is arguably one of the greatest public health epidemics facing the nation everyone in this room loves and serves."

“Chiefs of police and sheriffs join the victims in asking you to act now to prevent one more death and bloodshed," he said.

...

In the past, Acevedo has been outspoken about his desire for increased gun-control measures. His congressional remarks came the week after four Houston police officers were shot and a fifth injured during a drug raid, after which Acevedo expressed “frustration” with lawmakers. “For whatever reason, they offer a lot of prayers ... We didn’t elect people to pray for us. We elect people to lead us; we elect people to make public policy decisions.”
Sheriff Scott Israel helped create the catastrophe at Parkland, and shifted blame to the NRA and US Constitution.

So far Acevedo is just blaming the Constitution... but they do appear to be birds of a feather
