So Mike Storie, the idiot attorney that is representing the SWAT team that killed Cpl. Guerena<\/a>, is now pushing this story that Guerena was “linked” to a home invasion outfit<\/a>. \u00a0His evidence to support this theory is that body armor, a “partial” police uniform (which could simply be a left over khaki shirt from his Marine Corps days), and get this, a PICTURE of a dead drug dealer, were supposedly found in the room. I say “supposedly” because this contradicts earlier statements by the Pima County Sheriff’s Office that this raid was related to drug charges and that none of these items were found in any of the houses that were searched. However, based on Pima County’s history with changing their story and not getting the facts right, it is possible that these items were find in the home, along with the body of Jimmy Hoffa and the Holy Grail. Anything is possible.<\/p>\n

What I find odd though is that even though Storie keeps repeating that body armor and other “dangerous” items were found, he has also admitted more than once that these items were not illegal and if the SWAT team would have made a proper entry into the home that Guerena probably wouldn’t have been arrested. Additionally, this version of events inevitably leads to a question we have asking here at TAH for the last couple of weeks: Why do the raid in the first place? Assuming Guerena had all this stuff at his house and Guerena was Tucson’s Pablo Escobar, wouldn’t it have been better to pick him up at work, where he likely lacked weapons and body armor? Or maybe a preplanned traffic stop near the mine and out of residential areas? Additionally, by admitting none of this is illegal, it shows that by saying all this stuff was found, all Storie is trying to do is smear Guerena and his family.<\/p>\n

Then there is the issue of the surveillance car that was supposedly during pre-raid\u00a0reconnaissance\u00a0on the house. Storie claims \u00a0that they were forced to abort after someone ran the license plate and he claimed someone in the neighborhood was doing “counter-surveillance” on law enforcement. Well according to the AZ Daily Star<\/a>:<\/p>\n

Under the Federal Privacy Act, the MVD in Arizona cannot release information on a license plate to anyone other than to law enforcement.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So that part of the story is probably complete bullshit or, even worse for the SWAT team, they were running multiple, uncoordinated surveillance teams on the house. Wow, these guys look stupider every day.<\/p>\n

This SWAT team, even though they by all accounts appear incompetent, unprofessional, and totally unqualified for their jobs, deserves a thorough investigation and a fair trial with a professional and competent legal defense team. Based on his statements up to this point, Mike Storie is neither competent nor professional and if he really wants to help these deputies out, he should shut his mouth and go away.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
