Kentucky dispatchers repeatedly told police officers the address of a house they were supposed to raid over an alleged stolen Weed Eater, only for the

And remember, kids, even if it was the right guy why the fuck were they ok with killing a guy over a fucking weed-wacker? Also why do they need to raid someone’s home over a not even that expensive bit of gardening equipment? Like yea I’d like my shit back too but if I was in the states I’d call insurance about it and get a new one long before I essentially ask the cops to go kill some dude over it.
Yeah, something's not right. Usually you can't get cops to even take a report for 'minor' property crimes, and these guys just go busting doors with guns blazing?
The weedeater belonged to a local judge. Cops will go above and beyond for their pals who take them at their word on the witness stand.
I figured it would be something like that.
Right?????
Something doesn’t add up.
Turns out it belonged to a county official. Go figure.
David Westerfield. The Laurel County Judge Executive.
There it is.
If I had to guess, either someone on the force didn’t like this guy.
Either that, or someone really cozy with the cops was mad about their weedeater being stolen.
It’s crazy to me that one of my neighbors could be doing something shady and it gets me killed. As often as my packages get delivered at the wrong place, it’s scary to think about.
Yeah, but you're not a "local judge".
Not that I disagree with most of your comment, but insurance claim wouldn’t be worth it for a weed whacker as the excess would be prohibitive.
True enough, though I’d still rather not send a potential hit-squad over it. The chance of that is low but nowhere near low enough. Just glad to live in an at least passably civilized country where I don’t need to worry about that as bad.
