Kentucky dispatchers repeatedly told police officers the address of a house they were supposed to raid over an alleged stolen Weed Eater, only for the cops to raid the wrong home and kill the man inside.

But the man who police say admitted to stealing the Weed Eater from a home of a local judge had already been in custody prior to the deadly raid that took place minutes before midnight last month, according to WLEX. That man told police he had stored the stolen Weed Eater at a home at 489 Vanzant Road which is a rural area outside of London city limits.

    I can’t help but notice you haven’t given your name and city. Could it be because you prefer to keep them private?

      You know there’s a distinction between free speech in the legal and moral sense? “I want my privacy” and “That is private information” are also distinct. This is obvious. Stop being deliberately obtuse, everyone sees through it.

        I don’t think it’s being obtuse to be shocked they’re just putting people’s addresses in a news article when it’s not relevant. That’s not being obtuse. I very clearly mean the “want my privacy” sense. You’re the one who brought up “that is private information.” 🙄 But you’re accusing me of being obtuse.

          I was being kind. It’s also possible that you’re just a dumbass, which is looking increasingly likely.
