LIMA, Ohio — Darla Jennings walked through the streets of south Lima last night sobbing as hundreds of people behind her called for justice after the shooting of her daughter, who was killed by police as she held her baby. (Click HERE for full story)
Tarika Wilson, 26, was shot and her 1-year-old son was wounded when Lima police conducted a drug raid on their home Friday night, prompting members of the black community to organize a candlelight vigil and demand answers from police.
"They shot my daughter and her baby," Ms. Jennings said through tears while being consoled by other family members. "The police have to pay for what they did. They went in that home shooting and killed her."
Police were there to arrest Ms. Wilson's boyfriend, Anthony Terry, 31, who was suspected of selling drugs from the house; he was arrested Friday night at the residence. Marijuana and crack cocaine were found in the house.
Ms. Wilson, the mother of six children, ages 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 8, was pronounced dead at 218 East Third St., where SWAT team police officers executed a search warrant at 8:15 p.m. Ms. Wilson's youngest child, Sincere Wilson, was shot during the drug raid as she held him.
Life is cheap to the narcs who execute these self-styled "high risk warrants." So much for the background check on the premises before the raid, I guess. The informant would have told them about the kids.
COMMENT: Maybe had these high end, armor covered, gun toting SWAT guys bothered to ask their narc about the premises, they would have learned there were lots and lots of itty bitty teeny weeny toddlers around that might get in the way of their bullets.
