I feel like part of this story is missing. Dogs running around being a pain in the *ss don’t usually need to be shot unless they threaten someone. So what, she knocked on the door, nobody answered, so she said “Oh well. I’ll just shoot these m*****f*****s.”? I mean, she walks onto someone’s front porch and drills their dog 2-3 times because she thought nobody was home? What’s the excuse for shooting the dog in the backyard? Someone HAD answered the door at that point. Did the dogs mutilate someone’s kid or something?
According to the locals there, the dogs had been known to break out the yard and run around the neighborhood. Florence used to be a small farming community.
I used to hunt dove there with my cousin in the 70s and 80s. It has grown quite a bit the past 15 or 20 years. The PD chief is lucky she didn't have hot lead headed her way after this incident.
