Unfortunately, the county has revealed almost nothing about how or why the SWAT team turned a search warrant into a death warrant.<\/p>\n<p>Scott and I also discuss the protest at Montgomery Co. Police headquarters on Saturday.\u00a0 One of the organizers encouraged attendees to bring rifles even after learning that guns are prohibited by law at demonstrations in Maryland. Roughly 10% of the attendees were arrested for firearms violations.<\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s great that people across the nation are refusing to forget Duncan Lemp and demanding justice on his killing.<\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s a link to the<a href=\"https:\/\/libertarianinstitute.org\/scotthortonshow\/4-27-20-jim-bovard-on-the-murder-of-duncan-lemp\/\"> official page with the interview<\/a> or you can listen to it by clicking below:<\/p>\n<audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-14553-1\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/dissentradio.com\/radio\/20_04_27_bovard.mp3?_=1\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/dissentradio.com\/radio\/20_04_27_bovard.mp3\">https:\/\/dissentradio.com\/radio\/20_04_27_bovard.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n<div class=\"et_social_inline et_social_mobile_on et_social_inline_bottom\">\n<div class=\"et_social_networks et_social_3col et_social_slide et_social_rounded et_social_left et_social_no_animation et_social_withnetworknames et_social_outer_dark\">\n<ul class=\"et_social_icons_container\">\n<li class=\"et_social_facebook\">\n<div class=\"et_social_network_label\">\n<div class=\"et_social_networkname\">\n<p><strong>Discussed on the show:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>\u201cDid Maryland Police Shoot and Kill a Sleeping Man?\u201d (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theamericanconservative.com\/articles\/did-maryland-police-shoot-and-kill-a-sleeping-man\/\">The American Conservative<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>\u201cThe Mystery Deepens Over the Pre-Dawn Police Killing of Duncan Lemp\u201d (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theamericanconservative.com\/articles\/the-mystery-deepens-over-the-pre-dawn-police-killing-of-duncan-lemp\/\">The American Conservative<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>\u201cDuncan Lemp\u2019s Parents Threatened With Jail For Protesting His Killing\u201d (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.theamericanconservative.com\/articles\/duncan-lemps-parents-threatened-with-jail-for-protesting-his-killing\/\">The American Conservative<\/a>)<\/li>\n<li>\u201cTamir Rice\u2019s Basically Reasonable Murder\u201d (<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.simplejustice.us\/2015\/10\/11\/tamir-rices-basically-reasonable-murder\/\">Simple Justice<\/a>)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Here is a link to\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/jimbovard.com\/blog\/2020\/04\/25\/photos-from-protest-of-duncan-lemp-killing-at-moco-police-headquarters\/\"> my photos from Saturday&#8217;s demonstration.<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Libertarian Institute boss Scott Horton had me back on his radio show this morning to discuss the latest on the Duncan Lemp case.\u00a0\u00a0 Lemp was fatally wounded when a Montgomery County SWAT team fired through his bedroom window without warning at 4:30 a.m. on March 12.\u00a0 The fatal assault was propelled after the Montgomery County [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":14555,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[349,2270,1330,2327,214,305,989,395],"class_list":["post-14553","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-uncategorized","tag-coverup","tag-duncan-lemp","tag-killing","tag-montgomery-county-police","tag-mp3-2","tag-protest","tag-scott-horton","tag-swat"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/product\/yoast-seo-wordpress\/ -->\n<title>Duncan Lemp Killing &amp;
