Too many dogs get shot by police being all Rambo. They always site policy and say they were in danger even if video shows them calmly walking up to a dog and executing it. A correction officer's puppy and I do mean puppy got out and a sheriff officer saw the puppy sniffing the grass in it's front yard and he got out of his car walked up to it and shot it in the back then calmly got in his car and drove away. A neighbor saw the whole incident and had innocently thought the cop knew the other cop until fido got shot... she rushed the puppy to the vet as it was still alive, it lived. The sheriff officer did not report what he had done until confronted by his boss and the other officer, and the correctional officer had to do back channel stuff to get the vet bills paid but he could not press charges as the sheriff department would then harass him, thin blue line bully BS. So that mother still has a badge and a gun, along with a lot of other bad cops in my area... I got lots of bad cop stories from around here... it is always near impossible to get the leos to investigate crime their officers are committing, one was a serial rapist of elderly women, families kept saying their granny said a police officer was raping them and the PD kept calling it all lies and the old folks have dementia... finally people put surveillance cameras in their elderly relatives homes to see what was happening and he was filmed forcing his way into homes and raping people, there was another guy who is a stalker and breaks into homes of women and even made one single mom's children sit on couch while he stole their moms underpants... no he was not fired! I work with ex cops and bad officers no one can touch is a pretty common subject between the retired cops and us non cops who have dealt with the bad ones. So I am always cautious when dealing with cops as you got to figure out is they a good one, a bully sneaky one (so could go bad quick if you don't gratify their bully needs) or a straight up criminal behind the badge. The only thing that has saved my co-workers and me from leos abusing us is the State Troopers aka CHP coming to our rescue, certain local PDs try to intimidate, threaten, abuse and interfere with us regularly... they are oblivious to the fact that their antics of throwing their badges, guns and authority around to try and scare us or make us brake a law they find inconvenient is endangering their lives, our lives and the children we care for. They also are usually ignorant of the fact we can have them arrested and charged with a felony if push comes to shove and we have better and better camera and microphone systems. It is amazing how many people (including officers) forget we are under constant surveillance and think they can just make stuff up and get us fired or in trouble as revenge for us saying "no, that is unsafe, I will not comply" or "no, that is illegal, I will not comply"... nope cameras show all the stuff adult bullies in position of authority do and thank god the CHP sees us as their territory in the great law agency pissing contest.
