Police Raid Wrong Same Wrong House 41 Times

Single File Guys, Same Drill As Last Week

News Mirror - An innocent couple’s home has been wrongly raided for the 41st time – just days after police pledged it would never happen again. Matthew Jillard and Claire Hayes told last week how they have suffered 18 months of their home being mixed up with another 100 yards away. Police promised them they had fixed the problem – but blundering officers made the same error at the weekend. Now the couple, who have never been in trouble with the law, have vowed to move. Office worker Claire, 42, said: “This was the final straw. They apologised but I feel the only thing we can do is move house.  Police keep confusing the couple’s home in Repton Road, Birmingham, with one round the corner in Repton Grove. Matthew, 38, was once confronted by 10 officers in bullet-proof vests. Officers also banged on the door twice on Christmas Day. They later apologised with flowers. But handyman Matthew, who took photos of the police after the latest raid on Saturday morning, said: “We’ve been renting this house for 10 years but we’re definitely moving. I fear one day armed police are going to come flying through.”

Here's the big unanswered question I kept waiting for this article to provide, what the hell was going on at the house next door to these people? I mean shouldn't this shit have been cleared up by the 38th or 39th time at least? Think about it, what on earth could he be possibly doing to warrant 41 raids, but he's still out free?  Some kind of criminal mastermind with the worlds best lawyer I guess.

That's assuming that the SWAT team isn't doing this on purpose as some form of elaborate pay back or revenge.  Like this poor home owner slept with the Police commander's wife or something and is now screwed for life.  Just regular 3 AM SWAT raids from here till eternity. Dudes dressed as storm troopers kicking your shit in and stomping on your balls while they execute phony search warrants.  All the while the Evil Police commander is at home watching on video, petting his cat and saying "excellent, excellent" like Dr. Claw.

Yikes we've kind of gotten off track.
