Because police are a tax funded gang and gangs don't sell out their own.

Because police unions vote, so they get laws to protect them from almost all consequences as both parties will bend over backwards for their vote.

Police are seen as "can do no wrong"
They protect their own over all else
The law heavily favours the police
Oh, and she was black.

It is not legal, not even for police. However, with regards to police, there is more leeway in extenuating circumstances for hitting a bystander with your bullets.

Whether that is proper is for that community to decide, and elect leaders who follow the people's wishes.

Cops have no accountability and masses of people protect them out of habit so they kill people flagrantly if needed op

I'm genuinely surprised the boyfriend isn't criminally liable somehow.

How many of those had police officers visit New York on vacation, arrested a man in the subway and got medals by the mayor for not using any violence?

They were exercising a court issued warrant. It was initially a no knock warrant and then was changed to a knock and announce raid warrant.

They did knock but there is disagreement on whether or not they announced who they were. The boyfriend says they didn't. they say they did. It doesn't really make a whole lot of sense that they would knock but not announce who they are, that's just making the situation more dangerous for everyone including themselves. That doesn't necessarily mean the boyfriend is lying. I'm sure it was a startling moment and he might not have heard them if they did.

Either way, they knock in the door, the boyfriend fired first striking an officer and the officers returned fire and unfortunately this girl was killed in crossfire.

To boil all that down to "they killed her in her sleep" is extreamly disingenuous
