“#NYPD defends the use of ‘no-knock’ warrants<\/strong>”<\/p>\n

\n

NYPD officials on Thursday defended their use of so-called \u201cno-knock\u201d warrants \u2014 as the tactic has faced a storm of criticism in the wake of Breonna Taylor\u2019s killing by police in Louisville, Kentucky, last year.<\/p>\n

\u201cNo knock warrants are a critical tool the NYPD uses to keep narcotics off the streets and to seize illegal firearms,\u201d Chief of Department Rodney Harrison, a former undercover officer, told reporters at a press conference at One Police Plaza in Manhattan.<\/p>\n

\u201cPlease allow me to dispel a number of rumors which I\u2019ve heard,\u201d he said. \u201cFirst, just because a warrant says it\u2019s no knock does not mean that we don\u2019t make any announcements.\u201d<\/p>\n

He said the NYPD makes its presence \u201cclearly known.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cNo knock simply means that we don\u2019t have to wait for someone to open the door to a residence or a business in an attempt to make entry,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

He added that officers conduct \u201cnumerous background checks\u201d to make sure they have the right subjects and locations before conducting the warrants. The NYPD also trains its officer in \u201cdynamic entry tactics.\u201d<\/p>\n

Harrison said the warrants are critical in preventing shootings that have left many innocent New Yorkers dead or wounded.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe goal of a search warrant is to remove violent contraband from the streets in an attempt to save an Innocent New Yorkers life,\u201d he said. \u201cSo we don\u2019t have another Davell Gardiner, Priscilla Vasquez, Aamir Griffin, Gudelia Vallinas.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n

City and state politicians have looked at ending the no-knock warrants in the wake of Taylor killing during a police raid at her apartment. The raid uncovered no evidence and her death sparked outrage over the practice.<\/p>\n

Police Commissioner Dermot Shea said the warrants are even more necessary in the current climate.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a time when New Yorkers are facing a steep increase in gun violence,\u201d Shea said. \u201cA time when your NYPD cops are out there, and detectives, every day trying to keep you, New Yorkers, safe.\u201d<\/p>\n

Harrison said 1,815 no-knock search warrants were app<\/a>roved by the courts last year. The warrants led to the NYPD seizure of 792 firearms. Police recovered narcotics 667 times, he said. In 40 instances, the evidence cops were seeking was not found.<\/p>\n
