No, fuck you for saying he’s not as guilty. An innocent man isn’t murdered in his own home unless both parties do what they did. The caller and the cop should both go up on manslaughter or murder charges, depending on what statute allows.

I dunno if you can make a murder charge stick. Far more likely to land a negligent homicide charge.

If I’m home in the afternoon theres a good chance I’m possibly in some loose fitting comfortable clothing. Sometimes clothing that tends to sag and I’ve been conditioned my entire life to pull up my clothes before they fall. Its easy to see how someone may have unconsciously been trying to keep their clothes from…

“I didn’t get anyone killed”

Then the police would have to admit they’re out here murdering all the time and cannot be trusted with their trigger happy tactics.

I’m so sick of hearing about the police murdering compliant people in total absence of wrongdoing. I’m even sicker of the fact that they get away with it.

If the cops ever come to my house I’m getting buck naked before answering the door.

Yup, in a nutshell. I’m really surprised it hasn’t been standard response to swatting to charge people with attempted murder, but I guess so long as the cops themselves aren’t being put in danger, police and prosecutors couldn’t be bothered. Maybe this will get the ball rolling for serious charges for anyone…

And make the little shitweasel responsible cry all the fucking way to prison.

Exactly. This kid is about to learn what Felony Murder is.

Not a “prank.” Murder. You don’t call SWAT on someone unless you intend for someone to die.
