Money & Drugs Keep Going Missing After Louisville Police Raids

A VICE News investigation has identified an alarming pattern of largely unchecked abuses within LMPD's narcotics unit, which for years has used residential search warrants to target Louisville’s West End, where the vast majority of the city’s black community lives.

And yet both republican & dem politicians kiss law enforcements' asses. Biden wants to increase police funding... Yeah, because giving more money to corrupt thieves is such a good idea 🙄 You're right. There needs to better oversight and accountability rather than flushing more taxpayer money down the toilet on departments rotten to the core with bad apples. If they refuse to clean up their act defund them.

[@lancetennenbaum2509]

@@AlcideIzMine Law enforcement and policing do serve an important and necessary role in our communities when done properly and within the confines of the law. The reality is police officers are just people, and they are only as good as the system that they work under and the training they receive. If by "defunding" the police, you mean limiting their budgets so they don't have weapons and equipment that were designed for the combat zones in the middle east, then I agree. The solution to the problem with police isn't just taking away their money, it's making sure the money is being spent properly. It's making sure officers will be held accountable as individuals for actions they commit. It is changing the culture of policing so that officers will step up and tell the truth instead of hiding behind the so called "blue wall of silence."

[@lancetennenbaum2509]

@old man strength Yeah when they are doing their job properly. Not when they refuse to prosecute cases that absolutely deserve to go to trial. Many DAs protect the police because they regularly work with them.

[@lancetennenbaum2509]

@old man strength I like how you act like someone being older means they are somehow more intelligent. Age garners experience, not intelligence. Regardless of my age, I know that district attorneys are supposed to be completely impartial and try whomever regardless of their position solely based on the preponderance of the evidence. What I said in my previous comment was how many district attorneys have a conflict of interest because the very same police officers that they are trying to prosecute potentially are the guys who they have known for years and who have worked with them potentially on other cases. I'm sure many DA's do a fantastic job and are completely impartial, but many others don't follow the word of the law and don't try cases that should have been brought to trial.

[@lancetennenbaum2509]

@old man strength Congratulations on being retired. I don't particularly care what you think, but I have a job and make good money. I have a lot more than $8k saved up, but go ahead with your stupid assumptions. I'm somehow "liberal" for wanting a transparent system?

I hope you have a nice retirement, but maybe watch a little less Newsmax and FOX.

My brother's brand new vehicle was stolen in Louisville. My brother called them multiple times to ask them if they found it. They kept saying, no. He eventually found out (after it was auctioned off) that they found it the very next day after it was stolen. Please do a story on this issue next. He has phone records proving that he called them multiple times to ask if they found it yet. They lied about having it, just to buy time to auction it off as "unclaimed property." The Louisville police are criminals. Attorneys even told him they couldn't do anything, because the Louisville police are so good at legally committing crime.

A Hispanic man traveling in the south to a party with food and dog in his car was stopped the police decided the soup was drugs and he was carted off to jail no one knows what happened to his car impounded his dog sent to animal control he was kept for some time before the drug lab said inconclusive. This stuff happens all the time. The courts have supported illegal search and seizure because of war on drugs makes it easy for them to steal and then keep money for that police dept to use. The courts say prove it's your cash and how you acquired it. A man traveling to a dentist in another state was stopped on highway the police took over $10k he was using for dental work and he never saw it again had committed no crime. Happens all the time on the I-40 interstate across country esp Arkansas and North Carolina.

I was stopped in Missouri and harassed. He searched my car. He had his dog walk around the car and he kept trying to push the dog down and the dog howled. I am a senior citizen, piano teacher, and it is obvious that I do NOT do anything harder than jelly bellies. He called in "backup" and could not find anything. He had me pull over off the freeway (70) and it got dark and after a couple hours, they got another call and took off. My (older) car battery was drained and I was stuck. There is NO WAY he would even think I was connected with crime. He kept my car registration. I have no idea what he could have been looking for, maybe hidden money? ( I don't have money, hidden or otherwise.) I will never forget that experience and also, I will never drive through Missouri again, even though I own property there. I was also stopped in Wyoming at a Loves and the police said I was reported as "drunk walking". I do not drink. It was freezing but he pulled up a chair and slept outside my car all night as I would not open the window as there was another man in regular clothes on the other side of the car and the policeman was wearing a reindeer hat. I was too tired to call the "real" police so I went to sleep in my car and was amazed the next morning that he was still there, sleeping in his chair, (or pretending to sleep) outside my car. I was worried that he might have frozen to death but then I noticed his police car lights were flashing behind me. I woke him up to make sure he was alive. I don't know if he was pretending to have slept there all night but he kept me safe. He looked across my dash and saw my cane and realized that I was NOT drunk walking. I dreamed that I was his grandmother and he was a little boy and had dragged a Christmas Tree over to my house.

If you are stopped and you have a really nice car, expensive, you're a drug dealer. No, that's pastor. They saw all of us through one lens even if say like a 20 mile radius, everybody works, kids in school, no crime has been committed, if you own a nice home you bought it with drug money. I've been gone from the Ville for 20+years. Came back to visit and saw 26 police cruisers show up to a fight that was over before they swarmed. Caught in the drive thru for 45 minutes. No arrest, citation, nothing. Just strolling around talking and trying to appear as something they are not. Plus I read about the thefts a while back. Typical. Had a cop friend tell me what really goes on. I asked why do you not tell and his response was "I didn't do anything. That's about so and so". What? Everyone knows who these people are and do nothing. They just want to hang on long enough until they do 28 and retire with a pension. The rapist boasted about destroying those women's lives. There are no good clops. We are nothing to them and the majority doesn't mind one bit. Oh, snap! They care about the opioid voluntarily ingested, but seem to forget what crack did.

I agree totally. This is happening in California, too. The reason is clear: Cops have one rule, above everything else: *_NEVER_*_ SNITCH ON ANOTHER COP!_ The so-called "good cops" are _just as guilty._ All cops take an oath to uphold the law. Did the "good cops" have their fingers crossed behind their backs when they swore an oath to uphold the law? When a cop has a good reason to suspect that another cop has stolen someone's money or property, the "good" cop needs to *_ARREST_*_ THE PERP!_ ...even if it's another cop; _ESPECIALLY_ if it's another cop!! Nothing will change unless/until that starts to happen. It's hard to arrest someone a cop knows, there's no doubt about that.

The police had also verbally humiliated her as well. Listening to her tell it, there was no doubt at all she was telling the truth. And to top it all off, they found nothing illegal in her home.
