Change the laws to stop this #### from happening again, but you can't charge a person if they hadn't broken a law.
I'm no lawyer, but since they were so utterly incompetent that they executed the no-knock warrant at the wrong address and the person they were actually trying to arrest was already in police custody, could the officer in charge of the operation be charged with criminal negligence causing death?

Edit: apparently this information was reported inaccurately. See comments below.
