Gerald Goines, the former Houston police narcotics officer, led the infamous 2019 “no-knock” raid on Harding Street that resulted in the tragic deaths of Dennis Tuttle, Rhogena Nicholas, and their dog.
The murder trial of Gerald Goines continues with dramatic body camera video from the Harding Street raid being shown in court, capturing the chaos and tragedy of that fateful day.
Charged with murder in the deaths of Tuttle and Nicholas, Goines faces scrutiny for securing the warrant based on false information, portraying the couple as dangerous drug dealers.
While the defense highlighted drug evidence and weapons found in the home, a detective testified that there was no evidence of a drug operation or unlawful use of force during the raid.
A community organization called “We The People Organize” has emerged in response to this tragedy, seeking justice for the families affected by the raid.
As the trial unfolds, it raises important questions about police conduct, accountability, and the impact of wrongful actions on innocent lives.
The trial is expected to continue for several more weeks, shedding light on the events that led to the deaths of Dennis Tuttle, Rhogena Nicholas, and their beloved dog.
