(2) likely never know the accuracy of that report unless the FBI decides to publicize that report. If it turns out that the filling officer

The suspect wasn't there. She was not a party to any of his dealings, so that makes it the wrong house

The warrant was to gather evidence. It was a no knock to minimize the possibility of the evidence being destroyed.

It was the no knock warrant that allowed them to walk into the house with street clothes, and miscommunication that put them there initially

Firefighters are put in safe, but stressful situations when training. It allows them to practice calming down and assessing the situation

You can't effectively simulate a life-or-death situation in training, and you can't control involuntary chemical responses to danger.
