'It's the wrong house': Audio of Ohio police raid that left a baby injured raises new questions

The mayor of Elyria has ordered a probe after the woman who lives at the home accused police of raiding the wrong house, an incident that she said left her baby with severe burns.
The mayor of Elyria, Ohio, has ordered an investigation after a woman alleged that police officers who raided her home had the wrong address and deployed flash-bang devices that sent her 1-year-old to the hospital with burns.
Police have offered a conflicting account of what happened Jan. 10, saying in a statement Friday that they had executed a search warrant at the correct address and the child did not "sustain any apparent, visible injuries."
Courtney Price says audio from her Ring camera proves them wrong. In a clip shared exclusively with NBC News on Tuesday, someone can be heard saying "it's the wrong house." It is not clear who made the remark because the camera fell to the ground and went dark after police deployed the flash-bang devices.

I want to see a new version of CSI in which they depict police doing shit like this that the unsuspecting public are dealing with and not the super heroes it tries to be written as.
It is a tremendous amount more difficult to make a police show without the cooperation of actual police. They only help if you portray them acceptably positive. Like B99 is about as critical as they can get I think.
So make a show without police cooperation.
The Rookie on the other hand is almost an ad for the police.
Yeah, I love the show because it’s entertaining and Nathan Fillion is amazing, but it’s 100% blatant copaganda. They don’t even try to hide it.
That show is my guilty pleasure. At least I am not giving them my money, if you know what I mean 🏴☠️🦜
Maybe Law and Order?
"Yeah so this perp got away while we raised the wrong house and we just lost a multi-million dollar lawsuit for flash-banging the neighbours baby. Also another perp just walked because we failed to follow due-process and violated his rights"
To be fair, they do have some episodes like that.
The Hayes Code probably still blocks this, even if it's not enforced. Part of it was that producers of TV and movies could never portray the police in a negative light.
The Hays Code was never law, just an agreement between studios.
Gosh I looked it up and confirmed. I had actually thought it was law. In any case, that set us back for generations and is surely at least partially responsible for the rampant NIMBYism that is ruining the country--people don't have the capacity to recognize these things for what they are.
Fun fact - the Hays Code was set up to preempt real government censorship. If Hollywood hadn't started censoring itself at the time it's possible that the federal government would have. Some city and state governments were already doing it, and SCOTUS had ruled that movies were not art and that somehow made them not subject to the First Amendment.
The SCOTUS has a history of absolutely mental decisions.
