Cops Murder Woman’s Three Dogs, Shooting One Through a Locked Door — To Look for Pot

Detroit, MI — Three of Detroit’s finest, Officer Gaines, Officer Paul, and Officer Morrison, are named in a recent lawsuit after they entered a woman’s home, hunted down her dogs, and murdered them all.

The officers were serving a search warrant in search of one of the most beneficial plants on the planet which is currently outlawed in the state of Michigan. After cops murdered all the dogs, they came to the owner of the home, Nikita Smith, and said, “I should have killed you too,” according to the lawsuit.

According to Smith, when the cops came to the door to tell her they had a warrant to look for marijuana, she asked them if she could secure the dogs. Smith put two dogs in the basement and locked one in the bathroom.

But the fact that the dogs were secured, did not matter to these cruel officers. “They went around and killed them. Like a death squad,” Smith’s lawyer Chris Olson told the Daily News on Thursday.

As the Daily News reports:

After officers entered the home, one of the dogs was able to get out of the basement, and harmlessly sat next to Smith. As Smith reached for the dog, officers shot the animal “multiple times,” the lawsuit charges. Smith watched from less than 10 feet away as the dog, named Debo, died on the floor.

Three officers then went to the basement and fatally shot a dog named Mama, who was pregnant. Mama was quiet and not attacking the cops at the time, according to the lawsuit.

When the sadistic cops found the last dog in the bathroom, according to the suit, they discussed if they should kill it or not. It was locked in a bathroom.

“Should we do that one too?” one cop asked.

“Yes,” replied the other as Officer Gaines and Officer Paul opened fire, shooting through the door multiple times killing the dog on the other side, named Smoke.

“Did you see that? I got that one good!” Officer Gaines said as he laughed, according to the lawsuit.

According to Smith, after the officers killed all of her dogs, one of them walked up to her and said, “I should have killed you too.” Then, another officer told her, “you could have been killed.”

Pictures from the scene show Smith’s home riddled with bullet holes. They also show the tragically brutal aftermath of Smoke flailing around the bathroom as officers shot through the door. Blood quite literally painted the walls.

BLOODY BATHROOM

“I couldn’t believe my eyes,” Olson said.

Cops incorrectly believed that Smith’s home was a drug house and during the raid, they found only marijuana.

“They had a warrant to search the house,” Olson said. “That we don’t really quarrel with. But when you search the house, you can’t go in the house and kill all the dogs.”

Smith was arrested on charges of possession of marijuana — a misdemeanor. For possessing a plant, police officers felt it was just to break into Smith’s home, kill her dogs, kidnap her, and throw her in a cage — and this is called ‘Justice’ in the land of the free.

The charges against Smith, however, were later thrown out as the cops who broke into her home and murdered her dogs never bothered to show up to court.

Cannabis has been shown to kill cancer cells, save the lives of countless epileptic children, treat PTSD, heal bones, treat brain trauma, and a slew of other uses science is only beginning to understand. And yet, the only thing dangerous about this seemingly miraculous plant is that police will kidnap, cage, or kill you or your pets for possessing it.

Some cops seem to love to kill dogs. Is it because those cops know that dogs are more decent and valuable creatures than those cops are?

I am for the decriminalization of pot but I find these stores mostly bs. They have the dogs as a weapon or refuse to cooperate with police which makes them angry and short tempered. By the time police have gotten the warrant they have dealt with the person one too many times.

Not saying this is the case but I would be more surprised that its not the case.

What I find telling is that serial killers and rapist can live in a neighborhood without the police ever knowing but somehow certain people just have the cops camped outside their house day and night! Cops must be called out to come out!! Kinda tells you who these people are!!

Typical Matt Agorist sensationalist bullshit.

Black's Law Dictionary, 6th Ed.

Murder. The unlawful killing of a human being by another with malice aforethought, either express or implied.

It is legally impossible to murder a dog.

Who said he was using the legal definition? http://www.dictionary.com/browse/murder?s=t: "to kill or slaughter inhumanly or barbarously."

My dog was worth approximately 500 of these thug cops. Had a cop killed my dog to compensate for his numerous inadequacies, only regard for my family would have kept me from stalking and exterminating him.

I always thought murder was taken of an innocent life.

Too many people these days are using their dog as a weapon and might not even know they are doing it. I can not tell you how many times I have been bitten by a dog that the owner swore it never bites. This really only started since the mid to late 90's. Before that dogs really were not the issue they are today.

Quite often you are so immersed in legalities it seems you have no sense of human dignity.

That's not an insult. It just seems that way to me when I see that response to a story that, however true or not, on it's face illustrates epic callousness.

Cannabis has been shown to kill cancer cells ...

Yep, it has ...

In one study, the researchers determined that it would take a concentration of cannabinoids of approximately 10 µmol/L to cause the death breast cancer cells in cell culture. This converts to around 3.14mg/L of THC. So, you’d have to assume that to kill any breast cancer cells, you’d need at least a blood level of 3.14 mg/L to achieve breast cancer cell death. So how close to that 3.14 mg/L can we get by just smoking a joint or two? According to research, smoking one joint will give you a blood level of THC of around 1.3-6.4 ng/mL serum, or about .00013-.00064 mg/L. In other words, to get an anti-cancer effect, you need to light up around 1000 joints per day. http://www.skepticalraptor.com/skepticalraptorblog.php/medical- marijuana-hitting-bong-science/

Another one was shot through the locked bathroom door.

The third one, the pregnant one was in the basement - they went down there and killed that one too.

Nowhere have the cops claimed that the dogs threatened them.

All charges against the owner were dropped when the cops failed to show up in court.

This is sociopathic behavior - and to make it worse, the cops gloated about killing the dogs and threatened the owner.

These are the types of cops you worship.

You really are a simpleton if you believe that smoking cannabis is the only way to reap its beneficial effects.

Yeah, I guess the National Cancer Institute is full of shit.

In the most recent update to the National Cancer Institute’s (NCI) website included a listing of studies, which indicated anti-tumor effects of cannabis treatment.

Preclinical studies of cannabinoids have investigated the following activities:

Antitumor activity
• Studies in mice and rats have shown that cannabinoids may inhibit tumor growth by causing cell death, blocking cell growth, and blocking the development of blood vessels needed by tumors to grow. Laboratory and animal studies have shown that cannabinoids may be able to kill cancer cells while protecting normal cells.
• A study in mice showed that cannabinoids may protect against inflammation of the colon and may have potential in reducing the risk of colon cancer, and possibly in its treatment.
• A laboratory study of delta-9-THC in hepatocellular carcinoma (liver cancer) cells showed that it damaged or killed the cancer cells. The same study of delta-9-THC in mouse models of liver cancer showed that it had antitumor effects. Delta-9-THC has been shown to cause these effects by acting on molecules that may also be found in non-small cell lung cancer cells and breast cancer cells.
• A laboratory study of cannabidiol (CBD) in estrogen receptor positive and estrogen receptor negative breast cancer cells showed that it caused cancer cell death while having little effect on normal breast cells. Studies in mouse models of metastatic breast cancer showed that cannabinoids may lessen the growth, number, and spread of tumors.
• A laboratory study of cannabidiol (CBD) in human glioma cells showed that when given along with chemotherapy, CBD may make chemotherapy more effective and increase cancer cell death without harming normal cells. Studies in mouse models of cancer showed that CBD together with delta-9-THC may make chemotherapy such as temozolomide more effective.

The NCI, part of the U.S. Department of Health, advises that ‘cannabinoids may be useful in treating the side effects of cancer and cancer treatment’ by smoking, eating it in baked products, drinking herbal teas or even spraying it under the tongue.

So, after all the commotion, dog killing, etc, charges were dropped and the hero's did not even bother to appear in court.

Wonder why these hero's do not go & raid some large drug traffickers, or the Bloods & Crips, Black Panthers, Muslim Brotherhood ? I guess some woman & her three dogs are easier to bully.

One day, Karma will pay these brave "hero's" a visit. It will be bad.

If marijuana is so DAMNED GOOD, then whey won't the NCI recommend it as a treatment for cancer?

The National Cancer Institute stated that cannabis kills cancer cells, but it is still far from recommended as a treatment for cancer patients.

It all depends on what the definition of shit, is!!!

On 16 July 2015, the National Cancer Institute (NCI) updated the FAQ on their web site, Cancer.gov, to include a statement about cannabis and its effect upon cancer cells: “Cannabis has been shown to kill cancer cells in the laboratory.”

While the above-displayed quote does indeed appear on Cancer.gov, this does not mean that cannabis has been proved to kill cancer in humans. In fact, the NCI clarified the referenced statement by saying that insufficient evidence exists to recommend cannabis for use by cancer patients: “There is not enough evidence to recommend that patients inhale or ingest Cannabis as a treatment for cancer-related symptoms or side effects of cancer therapy.”

It should also be noted that NCI's claim that "cannabis kills cancer" cells is based on preclinical studies (research using animals to find out if a drug, procedure, or treatment is likely to be useful). While cannabis and cannabinoids have been studied in clinical trials (research involving human test subjects) for ways to manage the side effects of cancer, Cancer.gov reports that: “No clinical trials of Cannabis as a treatment for cancer in humans have been found in the CAM on PubMed database maintained by the National Institutes of Health.”

Cannabis and cannabinoids have been studied in clinical trials for ways to manage side effects of cancer and cancer therapies. Cannabis and cannabinoids may [repeat: MAY] have benefits in treating the symptoms of cancer or the side effects of cancer therapies. There is growing interest in treating children for symptoms such as nausea with Cannabis and cannabinoids, although studies are limited. Accordingly, the FDA has not yet approved cannabis as a treatment for cancer: “The U.S. Food and Drug Administration has not approved Cannabis or cannabinoids for use as a cancer treatment.”

With Cujo behind the bathroom engaged in excessive low-range barking; snarling; growling, snapping and scratching at the bathroom door, I would damn well think … no, scratch that … I would damned well know that Cujo was exhibiting dominant behavior which crossed the line to aggression. Hey, sport, it doesn’t take an animal behavioral specialist with a doctorate degree to know that a dominant-aggressive dog is very dangerous and poses a threat.

BAM! BAM! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG! BANG!

If for some reason Donald Trump is not inaugurated, taking office at noon Friday January 20, 2017 there will be a 'civil' war like none ever seen on earth before.

If, by the Grace of God, Donald Trump is inaugurated, taking office at noon Friday January 20, 2017 there will be an escalation of the war that will begin with his winning on Tuesday November 8, 2016.

The important thing to remember is that, We, The people are not going to go back to serfdom and the ruling political class, their masters and owners in the donor class and the slaves of both, the enforcer class, are not going to surrender the power and wealth they have accumulated, by a simple vote of the people.

There are some things you, who support the status quo, you who side with the ruling political class, their masters and owners in the donor class and the slaves of both, the enforcer class, should not forget, you are not going to be forgiven.

The mistake made by our forefathers by allowing, for the most part, the Tories to stay, to retain their wealth and property, will not be repeated.

I do believe the events will be much shorter and much less horrifying if Donald wins and takes office, for I am convinced that the Enforcer Class will not shed their blood and die as willing and for as long a period of time defending, protecting and serving their rulers and masters, as we the people are for freedom.

Why do you ask such ignorant questions? There is no state that charges the offender with murder for the intential killing of ANY ANIMAL including a police K9. Most people with a half of brain would already know without paging through a states penal code that EVERY state that desires charges be filed against a person that injures or kills a police animal has MADE A SEPARATE CHARGE FOR THAT PARTICULAR CRIME because no state could possibly prove "murder" when talking about an ANIMAL as a victim.

No animal equals human life, no, not even a police K9, the Kentucky Derby winning horse or even Lasy himself... the idea that an animal is on the same "equal" status as a human being IS A LIBTARD IDEAL... you show your colors.

No animal equals human life ...

Ordinarily I would have to agree with you. But in certain cases, I must say that it depends strongly on the human(s) and the particular animal.

There is a breed of dog know as the Rough Collie. Like Lassie in the movies and on TV, the Rough Collie is a friendly dog that is intelligent, active and good with children, people and other animals. Rough collies have a history of being incredibly loyal and protective of their owners, making them excellent family dogs and compatible with people when out and about mingling with society.

Take the case of a Rough Collie named Sassy. She is a therapy dog with some pretty amazing skills. In addition to being trained to perform typical tasks for a therapy dog, Sassy is able to tell if someone is going to have a seizure using her sense of smell. A family is hoping to adopt Sassy for their son who suffers from an unusual form of epilepsy, which can cause him to have several seizures a day.

Now, if Buckard and Pukard could be trained to do the same as Sassy and become as intelligent, active and good with people as a Rough Collie … then I would agree with you that no animal equals a human life.

Until then, we will just have to agree to disagree … with respect to these two Paultards.

I have a mindset that searches for factual information and I will not "shoot from the hip" like you do after reading an article that obviously presents only one side and therefore must be determined to be biased.

You are done here because you have tunnel vision that only sees what you want to see and "you can't handle facts."

You are frighten of me standing up to you and challenging you to consider all aspects of a situation ... so you are running away.
