YES Grandma has many guns and has only had to use one once. Come over and find out yourself.

This jerk cop will get his life back in a couple of years. Too bad the lady who the police murdered won''''t.

This cop was convicted of lying to investigators. 4 1/2 years seems like an appropriate sentense to me. Those who planted the drugs and pulled the trigger should get much longer sentences. What about the judge who issued the warrant? I don''t see anything in this story about him or her. No knock warrants need to be declared unconstitutional. If I heard someone busting down my door I would shoot too. You won''t know if it is the police or a bad guy until it is too late.

Corruption at its best. Poor black folks, with no money for a good attorney, would have been sentenced to death. But the privee cops and its crooked justice system gives a slap on the hand. Since they were white cops, they got the circus package deal - 8 months and your out of jail. A black cop would have gotten aleast 10 to 12 years.

What planet are you from? This is AMERICA. People LOVE guns. Even victims of gun violence are often the most ardent supporters of the so-called "right" to bear arms.

There is no such thing as a good cop (the honest ones keep their mouth-shut which makes them as guilty as the bad cops). Law enforcement is disgrace to any justice system. Its an organization that only serves its own - so much corruption.

After searching the home and finding no drugs, the officers tried to cover up the mistake, planting three baggies of marijuana, prosecutors said.

Manslauter? This was State Murder with conspiacy plain and simple against an old woman who was tring to legally defend herself. If the courts won''t punish, sue ATL and let the family seek their revenge when these murderers are released, On that day, Justice will finally be served.

When your home is invaded, Shoot first and ask questions later. Anyone can buy a swat outfit from a catalog or online. No jury will convict you of not hearing the words "search warrant" with all that shooting going on. Cops need to knock unless the want a shootout. These guys even shot themselves!
