WOW! You’re on a roll tonight.
Beautiful dog. Hopefully the owner will receive justice for the wrongs committed against her and her dog.
JMHO, if you have to tie your dog outside unsupervised, you shouldn’t have a dog.
Very lucky the deputy didn't shoot the dog right then, if for no other reason than to end the case right there.
I hate these cruel people and I am ashamed of our justice system. No one should get away with doing that kind of harm, let alone someone wearing a gun and a badge. I’m surprised this happened in North Carolina. What happened to us?
The deputy was frightened because that dog is a black assault canine. Hopefully, the dog was registered. God forbid if it was pregnant, then the owner might be charged with having not only a scary black assault dog but one with a high capacity uterus.
Bastards.
I see many more traffic tickets and other assorted run-ins with the sheriff’s dept. for the Browns in the future.
Why don’t law enforcement officers learn how to calm a dog before tasing or shooting it? In most cases it can be done. Also, tethering a dog in a yard will make it more aggressive.Yards should be made secure so a dog can have the run of them.
It seems to me that a national organization could be formed, of people whose pets have been gratuitously attacked and injured or killed by police officers. Along with the opinion of the owner whether or not it was justified. Special notice if children are traumatized in the process.
The purpose of this organization is simple, to compile a list of incidents, police excuses and efforts to block investigation, compensation, or discipline, names of officers and department or agency involved, etc.
The idea is that patterns may emerge, indicating collaboration, at the local, state, or even national level, to having police injure or kill animals for known or unknown purposes, including intimidation, situational dominance, anger release, or other purposes.
While officers may have a need to injure or kill a dangerous animal, policies that encourage them to do so gratuitously are a threat to the public, and like the taking of steroids resulting in uncontrollable rages, to be discouraged.
I want to know why the dep was poking around the back yard. Looking around to see if anyone was outside? Still don’t know if he would have to go all the way back there to see.
Yet he was nice enough to not shoot the dog, and leave a card and explain that the dog was tasered.
Inconsistent behavior, I guess.
I was further informed that the deputy had every legal right to be on the property and had a right to defend himself
Only if it is a FELONY WARRANT, and they need a search warrant also. A failure to appear is a misdemeanor the last time I looked, Call them on their bullshit Lies and get a Lawyer.
Well, there you are!
Nothing to see here citizen, move along now...........
This has got to stop.
dumb evil “sheriff” I hope he gets boils and hemorrhoids
