In the early morning hours of June 27, 2013, a team of Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department deputies pulled up to the home of Eugene Mallory, an 80-year-old retired engineer living in the rural outskirts of Los Angeles county with his wife Tonya Pate and stepson Adrian Lamos.

The deputies crashed through the front gate and began executing a search warrant for methamphetamine on the property. Detective Patrick Hobbs, a self-described narcotics expert who claimed he "smelled the strong odor of chemicals" downwind from the house after being tipped off to illegal activity from an anonymous informant, spearheaded the investigation.

The deputies announced their presence, and Pate emerged from the trailer where she'd been sleeping to escape the sweltering summer heat of the California desert. Lamos and a couple of friends emerged from another trailer, and a handyman tinkering with a car on the property also gave himself up without resistance. But Mallory, who preferred to sleep in the house, was nowhere to be seen.

Deputies approached the house, and what happened next is where things get murky. The deputies said they announced their presence upon entering and were met in the hallway by the 80-year-old man, wielding a gun and stumbling towards them. The deputies later changed the story when the massive bloodstains on Mallory's mattress indicated to investigators that he'd most likely been in bed at the time of the shooting. Investigators also found that an audio recording of the incident revealed a discrepancy in the deputies' original narrative:

Before listening to the audio recording, [Sgt. John] Bones believed that he told Mallory to "Drop the gun" prior to the shooting. The recording revealed, however, that his commands to "Drop the gun" occurred immediately after the shooting.

When it was all over, Eugene Mallory died of six gunshot wounds from Sgt. John Bones' MP-5 9mm submachine gun. When a coroner arrived, he found the loaded .22 caliber pistol the two deputies claimed Mallory had pointed at them on the bedside table.

Mallory had not fired of a single shot. The raid turned up no evidence of methamphetamine on the property.

To find out more about this case, including details about what the police did find, watch the above video, featuring Mallory's widow Tonya Pate. Pate has filed a wrongful death lawsuit against the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department, an agency plagued by prison abuse scandals, questionable hiring practices, and allegations of racial profiling and harassment in recent years.

The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department declined multiple requests to comment on this story.

Not for lack of trying.

"The baby’s family had moved into the Cornelia residence after their Wisconsin home burned, Terrell told CNN affiliate WXIA, and while the family members were aware of drug activity in the home, “they kept the children out of sight in a different room while any of these going-ons were happening.”

Maybe that photo should include the child's parents who placed him in danger to begin with.

Nothing found.

Should the officer(s) be punished?

He had a gun. It was ruled self-defense.

It doesn’t matter that the raid is the product of a dishonestly obtained search warrant issued on the basis of an anonymous tip from a petty criminal, or that no evidence of illegal activity was ever discovered. If your home is torn apart and your infant is nearly killed, you alone are responsible, and the gallant agents of public order cannot be held liable. This is true even in cases like that of the Phonesavankh family, who sought a temporary home with a relative in Georgia after their house in Wisconsin was claimed by a fire. 

This is all covered by the “Sucks to be you” provision of the “If you’re not a cop, you’re little people” doctrine.
Looking for other babies to burn, deputy?

No evidence of any illegal conduct was found at the home as a result of the raid. The front yard and driveway of the residence abounded in evidence that children lived there – evidence so clear and compelling that even a police officer would have recognized it.

If they want the drugs so badly, why don't cops just go out and buy them instead of murdering old men to steal them?

Before, during, after, or no warning at all. The suspect had a gun and the cops shot in self defense. They had a warrant and entered after announcing. From another article:

"After Sgt. John Bones opened the front gate of the property, he and Detective Patrick Hobbs approached the front door of the main house. According to an audio recording of the raid, Hobbs knocked on the door and announced, “Sheriff’s Department! Search warrant! Demand entry.” There was no response. After Bones repeated the announcement, again without a response, he and four other officers entered the home through the unlocked door.

And where was the evidence that they were using the playpen -- with the child in it -- to block the front door preventing entry?

In other words the cops - as they so often do - lied.

Fixed it.

Only drug addicts barricade their crack house with their children... and only drug addict boot lickers condone such activity.

Shame on you, Dicktard.

There was no drug activity or any criminal activity at all discovered at in side the family home by the cops who brutally maimed baby Bou Bou - the child wasn't used as a shield either.

Parents of "Baby Bou Bou" awarded $3.6 million

"Baby Bou Bou" was injured after a flash bang grenade was thrown in his play pen during a botched drug raid, in May 2014. At the time, "Bou Bou" was only 19 months old. He and his family were asleep in the same room in the aunt's home in Cornelia. The SWAT team broke through the door and threw the grenade into the room.

The flash bang grenade not only landed in the play pen, it exploded on the child's face and chest.

But don't let the facts stop you from continuing to suck cop cock.
