Cop Shoots Dog ‘in Cold Blood’ Responding to 9-1-1 Call At Wrong Address

A police officer in Dekalb County near Atlanta responded to a 911 call on Wednesday and shot a pet German Shepherd just moments before finding out he responded to the wrong address.
Now, the owners of the dog are outraged, and there seems little they can do about this very sad incident.
One of the owners told WAGA-TV: ”When I opened the door I started screaming, I said this dog has been shot. I saw nothing but blood… he killed that dog. She added ”It frustrated me because he was so quick to kill the dog.”
The 2-year-old German Shepherd, named “Easy,” was still chained up when the officer shot it. He later stated that he “felt threatened.”
Even more agitating for the owners, though, was that the police officer was investigating the wrong home. He was supposed to be on the scene of a domestic disturbance call across the street.
“Why did you shoot my dog?… I did not call you,” Easy’s owner said she yelled at the police officer.
The officer was not placed on administrative leave and is back on the streets already, though internal affairs was apparently investigating.
WAGA-TV has more on the dog shooting incident below, which it described as ‘in cold blood‘:

It should be good for the goose since it’s good for the gander. If it doesn’t stand up in court, I can sue the judge for not having recused himself since he has a ‘vested’ interest in law enforcement.

Posted on January 20, 2012 at 2:09pmUnfortunately VMan is correct to a degree. Although he often uses police brutality to justify blacks killing and raping 10s of thousands of whites which is extreme the fact is however that cops and soldiers are no different than the society as a whole which is becoming more and more degenerate.
I like what Dr. Paul said last night on abortion. Our nation demands the right to murder babies because we are an immoral people as a whole.. He said first change the morality then you can change the laws.. You know for several hundred years you’d been killed in this country over suggesting that one had a right to murder a baby. It’s just one more indication of who/what we have become.

If we feel threatened by a cop, can we shoot him, what’s the difference. Cops carry guns, and as we can see, are threats to everyone and in this case everything. With idiot cops like this around we all need guns for protection against cops.

Posted on January 20, 2012 at 2:37pmWas it during daylight or at night? How long was the chain? Was this a trained guard dog that the owners left outside every night to charge and snap at everyone who walks by? Of course the Blaze didn’t include these facts, they just wanted to throw more red meat to the haters! They just want you to believe that it was at mid day, the chain was five feet long, and the dog was wagging its tail when the cop shot it!!
Cop screwed up by going to the wrong house, in spite of the public’s perfect expectations cops do make mistakes like that sometimes, but I won’t be so quick to judge him on shooting the dog.

Dogs are animals and should not be treated with the same value as humans. German Shepherds are strong, fast, and can be trained to be vicious.

Posted on January 20, 2012 at 3:04pmOutrageous. When someone kills a police K9 (which is trained to attack), they are labelled a cop killer and the cops do everything they can to put them away for as long as possible. When a cop kills an innocent citizen’s dog because it barked at them… “self defense.”
Cops should not get special privileges when it comes to “self defense.” In fact, cops should be held to a higher standard. They are specifically trained to know when deadly force is justified. You cannot justify killing a dog that is chained up.
He should be fired immediately, and charged as if he were a regular person that just showed up and shot the dog for no reason… because that is exactly what he did. The only difference is he did it on the taxpayers’ dime, with a gun paid for by taxpayers, with authority granted for the purpose of protecting the taxpayers.

The problem is, when police make mistakes, someone ends up dead. In this case it was the dog, lots of other mistakes lead to the death of people. Cops have become trigger happy. Marines in combat zones have better firing discipline then our domestic police depts. If cops have become this scared, they should not be carrying firearms, they have become a danger to the public. Maybe they need to become like british police for our safety.

Report Post »you know what? this issue on abortion isnt just about whether its wrong or not to kill a baby. i
1) a woman should be given the choice to abort if having a child is detrimental to her health and well-being and potetially KILL HER. 2) if a woman has been raped and is impregnated by the person who raped her, forcing her to have that child is cruel and inhuman because that child is a constant painful reminder of an ATTACK she had to endure, and giving the baby up for adoption has a chance of coming back to haunt them if that child tries to find its birth parents. at which point that leaves a hurtful situation where a mother has to explain to this child where he/she came from and why she didnt want to keep the kid. 3) scientifically speaking, for the first 2-3 months a womans body is trying to kill what the body view as an illness, because in the first two months the baby is the same as a tumor/parasite on a cellular level.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Defense_of_Abortion
http://serendip.brynmawr.edu/exchange/node/1845
the only people who should be involved in this issue are the ones who made or want to make a baby and their doctor. birth control was orriginally created to regulate a womens menstrual cycle, which some of us still use it for, and the contraceptive just happened to be a side effect.
so, you, the fed, and santorem dont need to be dictating my or any other woman’s body, and keep your nose out of my uterus.

Posted on January 20, 2012 at 6:10pm@Bumpkin; you are dead wrong. It IS as simple as whether it is right or wrong to kill a baby. There is no scientifically proven point between conception and birth at which a fetus magically “turns into” a baby. So we must assume one of two things; a person gains human rights at conception, which is the earliest point at which we can determine that life is about to happen, or there is no discernible point at which a human “gains” rights. Where do you draw the line? As long as the baby hasn’t been delivered yet? Right after it’s been delivered? As long as it hasn’t left the hospital yet? As long as it hasn’t learned to talk? When does it receive the same right to live as you and I? That’s a damn dangerous path to tread. Furthermore, the men in a woman’s life should be getting her a handgun and lessons to use it efficiently to prevent rape, etc. I acknowledge that a firearm isn’t a good luck charm, but having one and knowing how to use it can go a long way in preventing yourself from becoming a victim of such a crime. I know women who carry a firearm on their person every day and know how to use them. I also know women who won’t touch one. That’s their choice.
And lastly, there are approx. 1.37 Million abortions in the United States every year. Guess how many rapes? 92455. That accounts for only a 14th of the abortions that occur, and that assumes every rape results in pregnancy. Sorry, the issue of abortion is more about convenience than it is rape

Posted on January 21, 2012 at 3:52pmI feel threatened everytime I’m pulled over. Feeling threatened is not and cannot be an excuse for use of deadly force. Obviously this trigger happy jerk didnt even wait for the dog to reach the end of the chain, or he would have noticed the animal was chained. He had time to draw a gun then he also had time to deploy pepper spray. Every cop I encounter carries pepper spray on the same belt as his gun often right next to the gun. He execized extremely poor judgement with the use of deadly force and represents a threat to the community he should be removed from the force immediatly and have his right to conciel carry reviewed possibly revoked.

He needs to be the one chained up as to see there is no harm he can do to anyone. He is not mentally stable in the head. He may very well be one of the rejects they weed out of the military within the first five weeks of bootcamp when they realize that the jackknife is actually only there so he can have the opportunity to kill other people to feed this desire that has burned in his soul since he was a child, you know the unstable types I’m talking about, and obviously, this clown is very unstable; there is no other way to justify it.

Posted on January 20, 2012 at 1:43pmThe officer shooting the dog should be treated the same way as if he shot a human. I understand that officers have a lot to deal with but incidents like this are uncalled for and the officer should be punished. If someone came in my house and shot at my dog I would not hesitate to put him out of his misery regardless of the uniform he was wearing.

So you are putting dog life on the same level as human life?
The police officer should be treated like he shot a dog. Dogs can be replaced, can not replace a human life. The human has an eternal soult, the dog ends up as worm dirt.

With the way I see how some humans act and behave I would have to put the the dog above many of these losers in society. I have been owned by many dogs and their level of loyalty and devotion far exceeds that of many humans. In this case an out of control cop who like you considers the dog as nothing but livestock will likely get off with nothing but a slap on the wrist regardless of how he has devastated an innocent family. If the out of control cop was shot by a protective homeowner I wonder how this story would play out.

You’d get the same treatment attacking one of them as you would attacking my child.

I guess I care about my dog a good deal. My two girls absolutely love our little red boxer, and will be very sad when she passes one day
If the folks living next to me are running a meth lab, and the cops come to shut it down, and some how shot Pepper (our boxer). We would be sad and mad. If it was a mistake, we would be looking for the police to pay, and replace the dog. I do not put the police man that accidently shot my dog or any others at less of a value (for his life). He will not be up for the death penalty for shooting my dog, and I could not justify killing him.
If the cops accidently came over and shot my daughter, do you think I would react the same as if he shot my dog? If so, you need your head examined. Human life is greater than dog life. If your kids are not more important that Fido, then I feel very sorry for you kids.
If you shot a police dog, or are trying to shoot one, the police can shoot back at you. If you did kill a police dog, you will not get life in prison or the death penalty for doing so. You may do time, but not life. If you shoot a cop, you will do life, or may get executed.

Posted on January 20, 2012 at 1:46pmReally, REALLY? This officer shot a chained up dog, more than likely Easy was trying to protect his property and family, and you say “accidents happen”? How would you feel if a member of your family was shot and killed because an officer got the wrong address and that family member was just trying to protect you and yours? AND YES, PETS ARE FAMILY MEMBERS! People like you just amaze me. I hope you never have to deal with something like this. “Accidents happen” Pleeeeze.

Posted on January 20, 2012 at 7:50pmcome on people it was an accident…DOGS ARE NOT PEEEEPPPOOLLLEESS. they are. come dogs dont respond like people do. dogs attack cops as well as burglars they dont know. hey im sorry the doggy died..ive had GS and they are good dogs, but lets have perspective here. as for the comment if it was a person. well if the person running towards the cops screaming with a knife..yea.. cause thats the same as a dog. admin leave for a week or so and the cops should buy a new dog…case dismissed. enough with the “what ifs”
