This made me sick. How can you forget about your own "partner"?!?!
Drug-sniffing dog left in locked car died - El Paso Times

that is horrible. Shouldn't the person involved get the death penalty since they killed an officer?
It sucks, but it was just a dog. We abort babies every day, and no one gets up in arms about that. Let a dog die and everyone wants to throw the book at the person responsible. I am sure there are a million things going on during a cops day. He probably feels horrible that he let his partner die, not to mention what it is going to do for his career.
Sorry, but that's no excuse. This guy should be removed from the police force. The cost of training these dogs is not cheap. And a police K-9 isn't 'just a dog'. :nonono::nonono:
I don't have a problem with him losing his job. I just don't think he should be looking at criminal charges for this.
No. He killed a police dog which is a 3rd degree felony in Texas.
The circumstances should mitigate the severity of sentencing but his actions resulted in the death of a Police Service Animal.
a guy by me got arrested for hitting pidgeons off of his AC unit with a broom, but cops rarely get in trouble like they should.
And a police K-9 isn't 'just a dog'. :nonono::nonono:
Yes it is... :shrug:
If you want to get technical, they're also a very expensive, well trained tool...
