Article: Couple mistakenly shot 15 times get $4M settlement

I love this:

Deputies testified they didn't think the shack was habitable, and the only person inside would have been the hiding parolee.

It could only be the bad guy - therefore it is perfectly fine to shoot whoever we find. Great logic.
 
Conley and Pederson were cleared of any wrongdoing by the L.A. County Sheriff's Department and the L.A. County District Attorney's Office. Mendez went forward with a lawsuit, alleging use of excessive force and that his constitutional rights had been violated.

WTF is considered wrongdoing in LA county sheriffs office.
