Woman furious after Winnipeg police smash way into her home.
The reason: They were looking for her son, a drug trafficker who hasn't been there in years.
This poor woman went through hell. She could have had a heart attack, they caused 2000$+ of damages, never apologized and laughed of it as if it was a big joke.
Welcome to the New World.
They called this operation "Project Distress"...
How appropriate!
They did have a warrant but why the excessive force?
Sometimes, I wonder what happened to good old police work. And common sense.
Why couldn't they have a team checking the back door while someone knocks on the front door?
Oh, probably why the same reason as the one where they'll shoot to kill if you show them a 2" blade...
This woman is a Saint. All she wants is an apology and damages repaired.
This sort of thing is wrong. Just wrong.

As I said. Welcome to the New World.
A 59-year-old Manitoba woman is demanding an apology from Winnipeg police after officers burst into her home and handcuffed her on the ground.
Geraldine Demchuk said police, using battering rams, barged into her home in Winnipeg Beach at 9:15 a.m. on Wednesday.
Both her front and back doors were knocked in and the officers fired two smoke bombs into the house as well — one into the back door and the other through her bedroom window. The window was left shattered with glass all over the bed, Demchuk said.

"It was terrifying. Like, I'm thinking, 'what if my grandkids had been here ... if they'd been jumping on my bed,'" Demchuk said.
"All they had to do is knock on the door. I've got nothing to hide. They shouldn't have used the force that they did to come into my home. If that's not overkill I don't know what is."
"All they had to do is knock on the door. I've got nothing to hide. They shouldn't have used the force that they did to come into my home. If that's not overkill I don't know what is."
"Really, I'd like to know why they felt it necessary for them to come and destroy what I have and then just walk away like nothing happened, like it was just a big joke."
