When a SWAT team raids a family’s home in the middle of the night, the officers ought to be very sure they have the right house. But no officer did that the night a SWAT team raided an innocent family’s home in Willard, North Carolina, in April 2024. And the officers had indeed raided the wrong house. Officers terrorized the family with flash-bang grenades, shattered glass, and aimed guns at children as they were ordered out of their bedrooms.

The fugitive for whom the officers were looking was not at the home. Even worse, the officers lacked probable cause to believe he had ever been there. The officers misled a judge into issuing a warrant to search the house based on false information and omitted facts that pointed in the opposite direction. The raid left Alisa Carr, Avery Marshall, and their kids physically harmed; psychologically traumatized; and without a secure and clean home to live. Alisa and Avery can’t afford to repair the damage to the home. And the responsible counties have refused to compensate them for the destruction.

Hoping to prevent other families from suffering the same wrongs, Alisa and Avery have teamed up with IJ to hold the government accountable. Officers cannot lie or disregard obvious or known exculpatory information when applying for a warrant, misleading a judge into issuing a warrant without probable cause. And when officers intentionally destroy an innocent person’s property for the public use of apprehending a suspected criminal, the public as a whole should bear the cost of the damage, not innocent unlucky property owners.
