re: #192 Spare O’Lake

Why would the lawsuit be “massive” unless these folks, with the help of an ambulance-chaser, try to cash in big-time. If the entry was in fact illegal then the police should apologize and should have to pay some damages to replace the dog and something for the owner’s suffering…but such a small claim could be easily settled out of court unless the owner gets greedy or the police are unreasonable.

They stormed in without the proper warrant, shot and killed the dogs, and cuffed and detained everyone in the house (including an elderly woman.) I’m not a lawyer, but it looks like they have grounds for a suit.
