An Innocent Victim of No-knock Warrants and the War on Drugs

Tracy Ingle was asleep in his house when armed police using a no-knock warrant burst in. Unsure about what was happening, he reached for a non-functioning pistol, but began to drop it as soon as he realized who they were. The gesture was too late -- officers shot him 5 times.

Wicked judges, who call themselves 'Supreme' as if they're supreme-beings: support & permit the 'no-knock police search policy' to be enforced, nationwide. So those so-called 'Supreme-beings' went to Court and made it easier for police to barge into homes and seize evidence without knocking or waiting.

Watch as NBC's Pete Williams goes over the details of this issue: No-Knock Police Searches.

Information About the Incident

Tracy Ingle was asleep in his house when armed police using a no-knock warrant burst in. Unsure about what was happening, he reached for a non-functioning pistol, but began to drop it as soon as he realized who they were. The gesture was too late -- officers shot him 5 times.

Mercifully, he survived, but despite not finding any drugs in his house, Tracy is being charged with two felony counts of Aggravated Assault, drug paraphernalia and running a drug premises. He is in very poor physical shape and obviously not doing well psychologically, due to the incident. Many people in his town and even family find it easier to believe the police would not make such a big mistake. Of course Tracy's neighbor -- who saw the whole thing -- believes him, but the police have intimidated him to near silence. Everyone who speaks to his neighbor privately hears his story, but after the police "questioned" him for 4 hours and "advised" him not to get involved, he has refused to testify or go on the record.

He and his family are trying to get a lawyer to fight this injustice but do not have the necessary funds, yet.

Tracy's situation is current at rock bottom. He has not received the care he needs, he cannot work, he cannot drive, and is he suffering from PTSD ever since the incident. He does not know who he can trust and lives in fear of the local police. Tracy needs help in paying his hospital bills, medical expenses (such as continued care), medications, counseling and transportation expenses.

Since the early 1990s, Mark Koernke - often referred to by his nickname, "Mark from Michigan" - has been one of the forerunners for the patriot movement. Through a combination of shortwave radio broadcasts, widely distributed videotapes and personal appearances, the university maintenance worker has used his speaking skills to spread his message of "New World Order". Koernke was one of the leaders in the birth and growth of the militia movement and achieved widespread attention after being "mistakenly" linked to the Oklahoma City bombing. Since then he has suffered numerous setbacks, including prison, but still maintains a loyal cadre of supporters. This is a lecture by Mark Koernke about the U.N take over of the U.S.
