Balko's Raid of the Day Series

Radley Balko, having recently moved his blog to the Huffington Post, has started a series on botched SWAT team raids. Today's is here. Scroll down his blog and you'll find more. He's trying to do one a day and has said that while he's focusing on botched raids, he'll also present some raids that were done right.

The series is an offshoot of his soon to be available book Rise Of The Warrior Cop in which he looks at the militarization of our police forces.
