But no dogs were shot, right?
I guess a requirement for some small town police - is having a low enough IQ.
Here’s a bit on the other officer involved and his retirement effective Dec. 31, 2013.

Long-time Covington Police Capt. Jack West filed his retirement paperwork
Wednesday morning, and will retire from the police force effective Dec. 31,
Chief Tim Lentz said. West, a 30-year veteran of the department, will use
vacation time for the remainder of the year, Lentz said.
West was one of two Covington police officials investigated following the arrests
of two referees during a high school football game in October. He also was
placed on paid administrative leave last week after a 12-gauge shotgun
discharged in his office.

This dude was a walking time bomb it seems....
Is that why there is no actual information in it about why the officiators were arrested?
Without a working knowledge of the law and procedures how did this guy ever rise to Lieutenant???
Geez. Just suspended? Seems like firing would have been more appropriate.
Anyone violating such rules should not be an officer, period, not demoted.
Looks like the bad cop hired himself a New York lawyer who de-camped to Louisiana
They should have arrested Roger Goodell.
