A very frightening story hit the news this past week…a Mayor’s family in Maryland was treated to the life changing experience of being treated like a criminal; and surprised by an alledged forced entry appearance by a swat team that was performing a drug raid. It was July 29th; the Mayor Cheye Calvos arrived home and saw a package on his front door step addressed to his wife, he took it in the home and set it down, unopened. He then went to change his clothes; but, before he could re-dress…he heard gunfire in his home.
He was then taken downstairs and handcuffed on the floor alongside of his mother-in-law. That is when he saw the bodies of his beloved dogs bleeding on the floor. They had been shot by the swat team. He tried to tell them that he was the Mayor; but, he was not believed. That was something that, seems to me, should have been verified before the raid…who the homeowner was, before they went into the home with guns firing. There was no knocking, no announcement of entry from what i have heard and read.
A drug sniffing dog flagged a package in Arizona; sent from Los Angeles, through the delivery service Fed Ex, that contained 32 lbs of marijuana. It turns out that the package was addressed to the Mayor Calvos’ wife, Trinity Tomsic. She turned out to be uninvolved and was not home at the time of the police raid. (more…)
