"Police officer, ex-officer plead guilty in woman's killing"

" ATLANTA, Georgia (AP) -- A police officer and a former officer pleaded guilty Thursday to manslaughter in the shooting death of a 92-year-old woman during a botched drug raid last fall. Another officer still faces charges in the woman's death.

Officer J.R. Smith told the judge Thursday that he regretted what had happened.

"I'm sorry," the 35-year-old said, his voice barely audible. He pleaded guilty to manslaughter, violation of oath, criminal solicitation, making false statements and perjury, which was based on untrue claims in a warrant.

Former Officer Gregg Junnier, 40, who retired from the Atlanta police force in January, pleaded guilty to manslaughter, violation of oath, criminal solicitation and making false statements. Both men are expected to face more than 10 years in prison.

The charges followed a November 21 "no-knock" drug raid on the home of Kathryn Johnston, 92. An informant had described buying drugs from a dealer there, police said. When the officers burst in without warning, Johnston fired at them, and they fired back, killing her. "

Too bad she didn't get her shots off earlier. Cops like this deserve to just be dropped into the General Population.

IF they had any honor, they would have killed themselves. Just another piece-of-shit Cop. Too bad the OTHER COPS don't give a shit about their own honor to kill these kinds of cops before they smear their names.

Any police officer will tell you, "no knock" raids are safer for everybody involved and less prone to mistakes.

Maybe they'll drop a bar of soap in the prison shower. ; }

Yes, 39 shots is bit of over-kill I would say.
