I'm not trying to turn it around. But personal responsibility goes both ways. And the father, who spent 2 minutes NOT telling the cops he had his daughter in the car, should take some of that responsibility.
I think armchair quarterbacking situations you can't even imagine being in is the more disgusting thing.
You are armchair ing it, particularly blaming the victims
More blood thirsty SOB's with no commonsense and incompetent disregard for the public. Why do they bother to get a description of the suspect if they are going to ignore it and wrongfully detain the first person they come in contact with.
They just don't care who they hurt because they get away with over and over.
If there was a prosecutor interested in doing his/her job they would be investigated, charged with crimes, and looking at some jail time. That dog is a dangerous weapon and just like a gun it needs to be controlled until a threat is encountered.
Complete BS if they get away with this. I hope someone starts a petition. I'll sign it.
Your hatred of law enforcement is quite pathological.
What's with the pathological need to blame citizens who aren't trained as to how to respond to a police stop unlike the so-called law enforcement "professionals?"
Two minutes is a life time to simply ascertain if their were any other passengers in the car. It ain't like this was a single unit stop, there were more than enough cops to search the vehicle without unleashing the do!

I think, he thinks were in occupied America where all people, innocent or not, need to bow down and worship their authority.
First they indoctrinate them with videos where they say our founding fathers were terrorists, then they supply them with surplus military goods and lately they have been shipping them off to Israel with the IDF for further training. Against who, they are a Domestic Police Force.
During the Bush administration, Israeli-American dual citizen and Director of Homeland Security Chertoff mandated that American police forces be trained by Israeli groups in crowd control, counter-terrorism and intelligence gathering.
Since that time, shootings of unarmed civilians has gone up 500%, attacks on legal political protests by police have become a scandal and huge stockpiles of ammunition and military heavy weaponry have been distributed to law enforcement groups in every region of America, both local and federally controlled.
The negligent k9 cop was taken off K9 duty and there was financial reimbursement, so the situation was handled.
How was justice served?
Why is money the solution to everything?
What would have happened if the shoe was reversed and a citizen out of nowhere attacked the dog and his handler accidentally? Just slap on the wrist and a fine from the tax payers like above?
That's what the headline (copied to the thread title) was meant to evoke. And the result is what happens when people emote rather than think.
The cop hatred is clear here, as evidenced by calls to fire or imprison them all. This happened quickly, and the only one who could be considered to have acted too quickly was the K-9 officer. The others didn't ask him to intervene. And no one knowingly released that dog to maul an infant as the title suggests.
There was miscommunication all around. The guy they questioned never said a thing about a baby in the car, and the responding K-9 officer saw movement in the car (the red SUV that a "witness" claimed to have seen a "perp" get into). Turns out there wasn't even an attempted robbery, and that information, reported to police, was incorrect (someone [the black guy] wasn't allowed to return an opened item and made an offhand comment about coming back to rob the place, so the shop owner called the cops).
No perp, wrong guy ID'd as getting into the red SUV by "witness," ....miscommunication all around. No wonder everyone was confused. Which is probably why, after almost a year, no one (much less all of them) has either been fired or imprisoned.
Sorry, I missed where the article noted a "red" SUV.
