SWAT Team Officers Being Sued For Home Invasion- Yanked 10 Yr Old, Out Of Tub - Terrorized Family For 45 Minues!! (WARNING: GRAPHIC Video)

Over a warrant of arrest for the father. Funny, it seems rather retaliatory, based on the fact the father, William Moreno had knocked out an officer in a bar fight, the night before. The arrest warrant was executed by a team of 14 SWAT officers. Really? I live in Pittsburgh and lately, they seem to find any reason to bring out all of their SWAT toys.

Here’s the account of what happened, according to the family:

The events unfolded as Georgeia, her husband, William; and her stepfather, Mark Staymates were watching television in their living room as Georgia’s sick mother, Darlene, slept upstairs at 7 p.m. on Dec. 7, 2010. They suddenly heard a loud explosion and saw bright lights, “as if grenades were going off,” the complaint states.

     Pittsburgh Police SWAT officers wearing helmets and face masks then broke and “stormed through” the front and back doors of the home, according to the complaint.

     Those officers allegedly never identified themselves, pointed assault rifles at the family, shouted obscenities and destroyed their property.

     Although the team purportedly sought to arrest William for quarreling with a drunk, off-duty police officer at a local veterans club early that morning, the family says that their “terrorization” continued for another 45 minutes after William was apprehended.

     The officers threw to the floor, kicked and handcuffed Georgeia, her stepfather and her adult son Billy. They also injured Mark’s shoulder and forced Billy to lie face down in broken glass, according to the complaint.

     When Georgeia pleaded repeatedly that she had young children in the house, at least one officer allegedly stated, “You think you can get one of ours, and we won’t get one of yours?”

     The family says the police proceeded to drag Georgeia’s 10-year-old son Trentino violently from the bathtub, injuring his ankles. They allegedly then made the boy stand naked at gunpoint next to his 4-year-old sister Briseis.

     Officers have continued to harass and threaten the family since the raid, telling them “that’s how we do things here” and that they should move out of Pittsburgh, the complaint states.

The family is seeking $50,000 in damages.

These raids have to stop!!

Here’s a example of one of the really bad ones gone wrong. In Columbia, Missouri, SWAT raided a home for marijuana and killed the family pet in front of a 7 year old child. Discretion is advised, video is disturbing and graphic:

Now if you piss off a cop, they’re gonna get their SWAT team buddies to raid your asses! That’s where we are people! We are cattle to them. They kill our pets, our loved ones, take our property, sexually molest us.

How much more???
