To protect and serve? Does this seem like proper police priorities to you?
(KSEE Fresno) Kerman Police removed more than 30 marijuana plants from the home of a couple killed in home invasion robbery Wednesday night. It all began that morning at a home at El Mar Lane and 4th Street in Kerman. Ironically, the home was under surveillance by police when 3 men went inside and allegedly shot and killed a couple in their 60s who lived in the home. Police chased until the suspects car crashed into another vehicle at Golden State and Jensen.
Three people in the car were arrested immediately, but a fourth man ran and was later tracked down and caught.
Kerman police say the home where the couple were killed had been under surveillance for weeks, suspected of being a marijuana grow house. Police were planning on raiding the home when the suspects entered the house.
Neighbors, who identified the couple as Gary and Sandra DeBartolo, were shocked at the couples death, noting that Sandra worked at the nearby Kerman High School.
So the police are watching this home for weeks and watch three guys walk in and murder the occupants? Why do you suppose the guys wanted to invade the home in the first place? Because marijuana is illegal and they can’t buy their own at a store and they can sell what they steal for tens of thousands of dollars.

The people did not go inside to kill them for the plants. They had no intention of taking plants. They were in a car and spent 30 seconds inside and killed those two and ran out the door. The plants inside shown on the news were too big to have fit in their car and the police Chief had said they believed the people that killed them knew the cops were going to raid that house soon. Sounds like they killed that couple to keep them from talking about something!
That’s true Russ! :(
Marijuana’s prohibition is a deadly policy which has no social benefit. Fixed Gil, thanks.
