On Tuesday, the Wharton Police Department in Texas shot a 17-year old boy, Daniel Castillo Jr. to death. The SWAT team was serving a search warrant looking for drugs after the police allegedly witnessed a drug deal take place at the residence. According to the family, Castillo was unarmed and asleep when the SWAT team burst into his bedroom door and killed him.

Legislation needs to be passed mandating that the PD take responsibility, including criminal penalties stiffer than the general public.
In an “ideal” world the actual people who shot the boy would be prosecuted and made to pay restitution, but that would be in an “ideal” world.
