No camera is normal for Fed LE, they do not even audio record. So no, that by itself is not evidence of conspiracy. Not defending the Feds, just saying that no recordings is not a "one off." Food for thought. Just saying. Again, it's just conjecture but that's all IV8888 is doing too... So, you're a tac guy looking to serve a warrant. You have intel that he travels armed and evidence strongly suggests he's always armed. So one tactical dude says "take him at work" all businesslike. Then another dude says "yeah, then what if he takes hostages and or we have a shootout in a crowded building?" Oh, tactical team says, "maybe not a good idea." Next dude says, "let's take him on a casual traffic stop." Then next dude says, "what if he doesn't stop? Then we have a pursuit of a probable armed suspect on public roads during rush hour." Oh, then tactical team says "not a great idea either." Then another dude says "let's just serve the search warrant on his house while he's at work and take him later at a safe time and place." Then another dude says "he has a security system and will know the moment we show up even if he's not there...back to armed suspect in a workplace." These kind of discussions happen when we plan missions. The idea is that if one of these ends in a shootout, it's a failed mission. Every time. So...I wasn't there in the meetings or planning and I don't know how they made the decision. Neither do you or Idiot V8888. No, complete investigative results of an OIS (officer involved shooting) usually take several weeks to complete...I know because OIS investigation was my job. So. Not defending Fed LE, I don't like the way they operate, but making up conspiracy theories for clicks is typical Guntuber IdiotV8888.

There was no reason they couldn't have walked up to him as he was leaving for work and detained him as they served the warrant. He had no record and this is a classic case of the rogue agency just wanting to play with their cool toys! No knock warrants should be the exception and not the rule!

And before they came into his house I saw a video of his house camera where they put tape over it so he couldn't see who was coming in. That's murder. Home invasion

Mr. Griffin, AG, thank you! This is huge and MUST dissected and fully investigated by impartial “party/parties”. We demand the truth!

Federal agents should be required to make it very clear who is at the door and give citizens the opportunity to communicate with them to make it very clear that they have a warrant and can enter. Give the citizen a chance to cooperate. It should be unlawful to put agents and citizens at risk by making homeowner think he is being robbed at gun point .

From an operational stand point yeah i can get taping over the ring doorbell cam. But in practicality since this shouldnt have been a raid in the first place, it just seems to make this so much more sinister and personal.

Cutting someone’s cameras should be an automatic felony assault

Mrs. Malinowski deserves a $500 Million lawsuit settlement and each officer involved in this raid should stand trial for Bryan Malinowski's Murder. The 6:01AM assault guaranteed the Mr. Malinowski would be home, in bed, asleep. The covering of the doorbell camera insured that no one could see who was assaulting the house, the door was busted down, the electricity to the home was cut off so Mr. Malinowski could not see who the intruders were, several heavily armed intruders swarmed into Mr. Malinowski's home unannounced. Any reasonable thinking person in the same circumstances would immediately come to the conclusion that there was an armed invasion of their home but a gang of criminals. Mr. Malinowski did what most of us would do in the same circumstances, he fired at their feet in order to stop the invasion of his home. There was no need for Mr. Malinowski to be present while his home was searched in accordance with the search warrant. I was a cop 1978-2006, I worked Narcotics 1983-1985 and, in my opinion, this ATF raid under the guise of serving a search warrant was either horribly bungled or a deliberate execution of a man with no criminal record.

Great video brother

The ATF policy doesn't require them to wear body cameras, that is the problem. They weren't wearing any because it would come back on them. This way they can just say they were following policy and they didn't have body cameras on. There is no justifiable reason that law enforcement should be using no-knock raids, it's a bad idea tactically when you are trying to arrest someone and/or collect evidence. The safe thing would to pull him over a quarter mile from home then take him back in custody to the home and search it.

Great video. Thank you.

AG Demands Body Camera Footage from Botched ATF Raid ???????????????????????????????????????????????????

Having done some playing with Body cams, I am not sure they provide much in the way of usable footage in a dark environment. Yes, some do have tiny IR LEDs, but they are not flood lights and the ones I have used under dark conditions acutaly are of very little value for events more than 3 feet in front of the camera. Even adding more Gamma to the resulting image usually does not greatly extend the range of their effectiveness. So how dark it was in the hosue at the moment of confrontation can be important regarding what the camea shows. Someone may also have had a weapons cam and if we are talking about a camera inside a thermal scope, those may be more useful, but only if someone asks for any weapons cam footage too. Having been involved in shootings as a FLEO and also executed or assisted in a few State and Federal Search Warrants I know that all usage of deadly force by a FLEO regardless of any local or state investigation is also routinely investigated by the FBI, and if the head of an agency (or other person of importance) so requests is also subject to an investigation by the DoJ's Civil Rights Division. Civil Rights Division investigations sometimes result in findings totally contrary to the other investigations. This incident is troubling. The ATF team had no arrest warrant, if there had been an indictment or True Bill, it's existence has not yet been publicly revealed, Subject was not known to be a felon and was a gainfully employed family man. There were some strategic and tactical critical decisions made before and during the execution of the Search Warrant which seem to be not wisely chosen and those events may result in results the participants might not enjoy. Not yet discussed in any video I have seen is the Search Warrant Affidavit that requested a 'no knock' during hours of darkness (or between 10PM and 6AM) Search Warrant. As every non-prohibited person has a right to self defense, the mere probability that a home dweller lawfully has a firearm is not usually grounds all by itself to receive and execute a potentially very violent 'no knock' warrant during hours of darkness on a residence. When it is done it usually involves to prevent the destruction of exigence (i.e., flush drugs down a toilet or ignite betting slips written on flash paper, etc.) or a history of known violence and a reasonable expectation of armed resistance based on a past history. I am very curious to read what it was in the Search Warrant Affidavit that justified a 'no knock' entry. I also think someone higher than any of us should be asking the Magistrate or Judge who signed the Search Warrant what he or she was told that justified in their mind such an approval for the raid.

ATF has never botched anything. Not even this event or Waco or ruby ridge. No need to Google either two of those

From the ATF'S pov was it a botched raid?

It just gets worse and worse.
