Reason: This Innocent Woman Is on the Hook for Thousands After a SWAT Team Destroyed Her Home

Reason: This Innocent Woman Is on the Hook for Thousands After a SWAT Team Destroyed Her Home by Billy Binion (“In June of 2022, law enforcement arrived at a modest home on East Calvert Street in South Bend, Indiana. They threw dozens of tear gas grenades into the house, launched flash-bangs through the front door, smashed windows, destroyed the security cameras, punched holes in the walls, ripped a panel and fan from the bathroom wall and ceiling, ransacked and tossed furniture, snatched curtains down, and broke a mirror and various storage containers. The tear gas bombs left openings in the walls, floors, and ceiling. Shattered glass lay strewn across the interior, and a litany of personal belongings—from clothing, beds, and electronics to childhood drawings and family photos—were ruined.”). This is not the first time this has happened to an innocent person, and it won’t be the last. It happened to a friend of mine where the local police did $250,000 damage to her house over a five-hour siege to get her suicidal son to surrender. It turned out he shot himself to death before the first tear gas round came in. Insurance is paying, but they were out of the house for over a year.
