Knock and Announce

“I didn’t do what they said I did. And it was like, I don’t know
how to disprove the police. I mean, it’s my word against theirs. I
don’t really stand a chance.” In 2015, the 15th Circuit Drug
Enforcement Unit in South Carolina gave a confidential informant
$100 to buy marijuana from Julian Betton. And then they broke down
his door. Officers David Belue, Chris Dennis, and Frank Waddell
shot at Julian an estimated 29 times. We speak with Julian Betton
