Comments on: No Bail For Woman Accused Of Killing Agent

Wife Of Suspected Drug Dealer Allegedly Shot FBI Agent During Pa. Raid

[mike18881]

he''s a drug dealer, who''s breaking into his house? the cops,or someone who''s trying to steal his drugs. they''re crimminals.

[swingset4u]

Parker, who also represents Robert Korbe, said he can''t explain why the husband appeared to realize police were raiding his home when his wife didn''t.

Christina Korbe was not named in the indictment.


Ummm, I know I may be going out on a limb here, but is''nt this how it usually goes down: Husband deals drugs, wife is oblivious to the fact and so when the hous egets raided she thought she was getting burglarized and SHOT the FBI agent. Ehh, I would have done the same if someone came crashing thru my door. The husband sounds like he was the ONLY one who knew what was going on. He is the guilty one. Not her....Dumass cops.

People used to do this over beer.

I do realize that cops should be smarter than that..so they are NOT EXPEMPT from part blame...they have to do thier jobs.

YOU HAVE TO HAVE A GUNG HO MENTALITY when you do this kind of job..who do you want tod o this
"a peave loving pacafist"?

Ok, obamasNUTZ you''re making a little bit more sense than your previous posts. Of course, cops can''t act like ''a peave loving pacafist'', but some common sense should be applied. Unfortunately, it is not applied because cops get high off of busting down doors. Its their drug; that adrenaline rush they get is directly related to this gung ho mentality. Last but not least: You do realize that there is a spell check in this forum (see above quote) so please use it in future posts. Intelligence is equatable to grammatical ability so please use it.

Think about this Ritalin is essentially a form of Methamphetamine as are so many other "ADD/ADHD" drugs. You don''t want your kids using Meth, but, many people don''t even think twice about pouring Ritalin down their kid''s throats like M&M''s... Just a thought, for the record, before anybody starts flaming me for this post. I DO NOT ADVOCATE DRUG USE, I MERELY RECOGNIZE THE FACT THAT DEER, MICE AND MOST ANIMALS WILL EAT POISONOUS FOODS/PSYCHOTROPIC DRUGS THAT GROW WILD IN NATURE, AND HUMANITY IS MERELY A SELF AGGRANDIZING ANIMAL.

On further consideration, I think that women in this story may have a case for her actions. Why? I can not see why any sane person would resist the police with firearms. I do, however,see why someone would resist what they believe are criminals. I don''t think this women is stupid--and cocaine or no cocaine-- taking on someone you know is a cop is not too smart. Therefore, she must have believed her life and the life of her children was truly in danger. Yes, you don''t often hear of a civilian using the defense that "they feared for their lives..." i.e as in cops justification for using deadly force. But in this case, it may work.

no it is not..its those idiot drug dealers who brings these drugs home and surround thier family with it..

then you go on to post...
Posted by obamasNUTZ at 06:30 PM : Nov 20, 2008...I am against this kind of early morning raids specially in residential areas where kids are involved.

obamaNUTZ you completely contradict yourself here when you state you''re against the cop''s gung ho mentality but you are against early morning raids of this kind. Get your story straight!

BTW, Unfettered Legal drugs are a problem in this country as well.
They have pain medication out there that is far more dangerous than weed ever thought of being, yet they keep weed illegal.

Where''s the thought on that? It''s all about the money, nothing more, nothing less. Well, and control the masses as well.

First of all, they need to go to the southwestern border states and get a handle on whats going on there, before they start breaking down doors in the northeast. You know, the point of entry, the kidnappings,, etc,,etc,,

Secondly, they need to legalise marijuana and there would be no need of these other drugs. The way it is now, if you are going to do something illegal, might as well go for the big(good stuff).

But my thanking is that, pot is far safer than all this other stuff going on. Like Meth. Coke, etc,,etc.

People would just stop at weed and be done with it, if it were legal.

Exactly, and well said.

They need to stop this illegal war on drugs. By extension, they have committed war on U.S citizens, which is prohibited in the Constitution.

So this "Police" action toward our citizens must stop.

[cockamammy]

My thoughts go to the children who were most certainly traumatized during this police action. It is deplorable that a raid took place when children were present. SensibleJack is right in his opinion that if there was a rudimentary investigation uncovering the fact that children were present then an armed incursion would be deemed imprudent to say the least. The War on Drugs and its immoral governing laws have made it unnecessary for police to practice no-knock raids in the hopes of securing evidence anymore. We now longer are innocent until proven guilty regarding complicity in drug cases. Considering present wire tapping laws and other surveillance activities by the police, there is no reason to bust down doors to make sure no white powder gets flushed down the drain. Circumstantial evidence is enough to convict in America''s courts. So, not only is this action unneccesary, it is criminal in itself considering the suffering inflicted on the innocent in this situation.
It is the gung ho mentality of cops that caused this tragedy.

[pachamaxi]

you have to look at this side too:
the lady protecting her children and the cops going to arrest the drug lord.
why the husband sells drug? he is the one who put his familly in danger, this day it was a cop who did his job and get killed wich is unacceptable but if it was one of his kids.....
And when the police came he knew they were there he was busted but he went on his basement and try to throw away the drug instead of: ok my familly is in the house i am busted let''s comply!!!!
the only one to blame here is the drug dealer and not the cops or the lady.

[guadalcanal3]

Kill an FBI angent...and suffer the consequences...

[tbuckl]

As long as the police engage in behavior that causes people to be suprised someone will die. I guess it is okay when it is the citizen but not good when it is the cop. Why not just arrest him as walks to his car, while at the red light, steping out the car to go in the house, why in the early morning hours unless thats what you really want, that moment of fight or flight. Some run, some do not, this behavior will cause death. The cops know this, they want to engage, they want the show down aggressive push till it pops moment. Sad to say but that will get someone dead, life wasted due to hast. Perhaps the Art of War should be required reading for law enforcement, the idea of taking the enemy intact would be a good start.

[pbcityvet]

It''s funny how everyone assumes this and that when the investigation hasn''t been completed by anyone including the police and media. Led the investigation run it''s course before targeting the police or Mrs. Korbe.

[slim1h2o]

Christina Korbe called 911 during the raid and said her house was being robbed and that she had fired at a burglar. She was arrested while still on the phone with an emergency dispatcher"

Yup, so the round-up of inocent people has begun!

What did she do wrong? Nothing, she was protecting her home, That''s it. And some of you people out there cheer on the "War on Drugs"?

This is the most assanine aspect of it.

You go in with a no-knock warrant, expect this outcome.

Release the woman pronto!

[JRC_903]

As far as this lady is concerned. She might be able to convince a jury that she did not know that the police where about to launch a "secret assault" on her house.
And therefore argue, that she believed a a criminal enterprise was about to kill her and her children. To attack her defense the government might argue that she knew the raid was coming and therefore her response was premeditated. But if they did that would would say about the competency of the police? Not much. In the end, no one kills a cop and walks away free--even in the unlikely instance that they are "absolutely" innocent. So, she is going away for a while-- reduced sentence perhaps.

[sensiblejack]

As a law and order person i am conflicted...if serving an arrest warrant it would seem prudent to have waited to get this guy as we was leaving the house vs an armed incursion....even a rudimentary level of investigation would have revealed home occupied by children ( and those not on the warrant).

Not saying her guilt or innocence can be determined one way or another, could be she knew it was a raid and was protecting her husband , or might genuinely be that she was unaware....... although now she weill be crucified either way.....seems like offical arrogance/incompetence on the part of LE here cost this FBI agent his life.

[spredbury]

This is the reverse of the normal case where a cop kills an innocent civilian. The cop gets a paid vacation and is then found innocent of anything because he "feared for his life". This woman will probably receive a hasty trial, found guilty and sent to prison of a very long time where she will be further persecuted by prison guards because she "killed another cop". Remember cops take care of other cops. I''m sorry this cop got killed but I really think there is reasonable doubt about what this woman thought. I just hope the facts come out and she gets a fair trial but I doubt that will ever happen, remember cops and prosecutors are all just alike and will take care of one another. Cops and DAs are like dogs, they all lie together.

[gramto8]

If I had a gun and had kids at home, I would probably have responded the same way this lady did. You come in my home uninvited, expect consequences. Her kids had to come first.
