This is unbelievably infuriating. With the recent video of the dog (a ******* Corgi, no less) being shot multiple times by police during a raid for a MISDEMEANOR marijuana offense, all I can picture is some scene where the girl is running away from the police after the FLASHBANG effect wore off and getting shot in the back of the neck.

Oh, and the murder suspect was found... IN ANOTHER APARTMENT!

Thank God for a place to rant about this...

And we wonder why people do not trust the police.

I never in my wildest dreams thought I'd say this, but...
Thank God for reality shows! "The First 48" was filming and evidently the terrori-, err, cops, were caught on film in the act.

Apparently the original police cover story was a damned lie (surprise, surprise). They threw the flashbang grenade and immediately, "within milliseconds of throwing that, firing a shot from outside the home."

According to the family, the flashbang set Aiyana on fire via her blanket on her bed.
