Goose Creek Update

For those of you who don’t remember Goose Creek, here’s the skinny:

A drug sweep Wednesday morning at a South Carolina school has some parents and students questioning police tactics.

Surveillance video from Stratford High School in Goose Creek shows 14 officers, some with guns drawn, ordering students to lie the ground as police searched for marijuana. Students who didn’t comply with the orders quickly enough were reportedly handcuffed.

Police didn’t find any criminals in the armed sweep, but they say search dogs smelled drugs on a dozen backpacks.

Pete reports on a tentative settlement resulting from a suit filed in the case:

The students could receive between $2,000 and $5,000 each.

I wold have preferred criminal charges and jail time for those involved in the raid.

    Usually the tools of the state have sovereign immunity, unless of course it has to do with the chief LEO signing off on a carry permit or a Class 3 application. For handing out permission slips from the state, the police chief might be held personally liable. 🙂

Remember, I do this to entertain me, not you.
