Cop Lied, 4 Cops Paid For It

The Houston event just gets more tragic.

...In the search warrant that was used to justify entering the home, officers with the Houston Police Department’s narcotics unit had alleged that a confidential informant had bought heroin at the house the day before the Jan. 28 raid. The informant had also allegedly seen a handgun in the home.

But according to an affidavit filed as part of the ongoing investigation into the raid and made public Friday, the informant told investigators he or she had not bought any drugs at the home and had not been involved in any work leading up to the raid....quoted at Captain's place

The lying cop got himself and three other cops shot--not to mention the two occupants of the house, who were killed. 

This kind of thing has exactly the same long-term effect as does Smollet's claim.  LEO's must have credibility to do their job; pissing it away like this cop did......well........
