If the cops weren’t idiots and went to the right address…
Would this have been an example of parallel construction?
Per the article, the owner of the correct house said it had been empty for months.
My head cannon is that the correct house was being used for illegal purposes (drugs?). Then, this “stolen” weed wacker was the justification they were using to go poking around this residence and “stumble” upon the other illegal activity.
Seems the most likely thing. Cops don’t investigate stolen cars. Since when do they do no knock raids for lawn equipment. Paying them all to drive out there is more than the cost of a weed whacker.

Although that’s true…
But the man who police say admitted to stealing the Weed Eater from a home of a local judge
That’s why a weedeater theft got a nighttime raid, IMO. And if I’m right the judge should lose his job because it’s his authorization of a riskier than required visit to the home due to his personal interests that resulted in this death. Unless this is how he handles every petty theft it’s an abuse of power. (and maybe even then)
