MASSACHUSETTS’ GUN CONFISCATION FAIL: Massachusetts SWAT team raids wrong home, keeps woman naked for 10 minutes

Some states wage a jihad against gun ownership. They equate the possession of a firearm or two with being a serial killer or child molester.

Cops in Worcester, Massachusetts are now famous across the Internet and social media for a “gun confiscation” stunt pulled last week.

Not only do they not do their due diligence to ensure the right person lived at the address before kicking down the front door, they proceeded to leave a naked woman lay on the floor uncovered – then FRISK HER – because, well, you know, naked people can have a gun taped to their ass. Oh yeah, and then there is the profane abuse of a woman whose pre-school kids are right next to her.

Those cops should hold their heads in shame. They’ve disgraced their department and the entire profession with their senseless, tyrannical acts. The story didn’t mention the cops bothering to apologize after intruding on this family’s lives – and injuring at least a couple of them physically, to say nothing of the mental trauma.

I hope this woman gets herself a new house, free and clear, bought and paid for by Massachusetts’ taxpayers… in a more freedom-loving state.

WORCESTER (Telegram and Gazette) – When Marianne Diaz tucked her two young daughters into bed Tuesday and took off her clothes to combat the humid summer night, she assumed the next thing she heard would be the sound of her alarm clock.

She was wrong.

At about 5:30 a.m. Wednesday, the Hillside Street woman awoke to the sound of somebody busting down her apartment door. Moments later, the 23-year-old found herself kneeling, her frightened daughters huddling close to her, as police officers with helmets and shields pointed “big guns” in her direction.

“Stop (expletive) crying and take care of your (expletive) kids,” she quoted one officer as saying. It would be 10 minutes, she said, before officers allowed her to cover herself up.

“My (7-year-old) daughter was freaking out,” Ms. Diaz said Thursday as her other daughter, 18-month-old Brieanne, sat in her lap. “She was just shaking, and she couldn’t stop.”

The state police detectives and Worcester SWAT team who raided Ms. Diaz’ apartment Wednesday did so on a “no-knock” warrant procured in Central District Court.

Police seized nothing during the raid, documents show, arrested no one, and did not find the man the warrant authorized them to find or the two guns he allegedly possessed.
