About this episode
This True Crimecast episode examines the heartbreaking case of Douglas Harless, a 63-year-old man from Laurel County, Kentucky, who was tragically killed during a botched police raid. Mistakenly targeting the wrong home in their search for a stolen Weed Eater, law enforcement officers ended up taking an innocent life. Jamie and John delve into the details of the fatal error, drawing parallels to past cases of police misconduct and exploring the critical questions surrounding the raid. Was this a case of gross negligence, or does it point to deeper systemic issues in law enforcement?
