The more I hear about the APD narcs vs elderly woman debacle, the more it reinforces my suspicion of cops.  Here’s where the story stands now:

A flagrant repeat offender, to bargain for leniency, told the police they could get a kilo of cocaine from a certain address.  The cops went to that address — in plainclothes, smashing their way in, in a bad neighborhood, at night.  An 88-year old woman, the only resident there, thought she was being robbed & attempted to defend herself with a handgun; the cops killed her.  After the fact, they got a longtime informant to lie for them & claim they bought drugs at that address. Then, when the story was revealed to be false, the longtime informant, while waiting to be picked up by federal agents, gets a visit by the ATL undercovers that had him make it up in the first place.  The feds talk to him on cellphone & basically tell the informant “RUN!!”.  As he’s escaping, he calls 911 & says he’s got dirty cops chasing him.

This is clearly WELL beyond incompetance, even beyond “well they shouldn’t really do that” questions of conduct.  This is full-blown throw these cops in a PMITA prison shit.
