Title: Coward Cop Caught on Dashcam Walking Up to a Leashed Dog and Killing Him for No Reason

Detroit, MI — Citizens are on the hook yet again for police misconduct, this time because an officer shot a dog — which was tethered to a steel cable.

Detroit Police Officer Darrell Dawson and other officers responded to a call of an active shooter in the area near Daryl Lindsay’s home on the city’s south side. Looking for the suspect, officers then surrounded Lindsay’s home. In the yard was Lindsay’s dog — securely tethered to his home by a ten-foot, steel cable leash.

What happened next should infuriate every pet owner.

On January 31, 2015, according to police dashcam footage obtained by a Freedom of Information Act request, “Dawson approached the dog and while standing just outside of the dog’s reach, shot her twice in the chest.”

Babycakes, as Lindsay called his female Dogue de Bordeaux, died from the gunshot wounds.

Lindsay felt compelled to file a lawsuit against the City of Detroit for the completely unjustified killing of his beloved pet.

“A well-developed body of federal law holds that police unreasonably killing a dog violates the owner’s Fourth Amendment rights,” Lindsay’s attorney, Chris Olson explained, as local FOX 2 reported. “In particular, where the dog does not pose an imminent threat, or the officer is not surprised by the dog and has time to make alternate plans to control the dog, other than shooting; the shooting of the dog is an unreasonable seizure that violates the Fourth Amendment.”

Lindsay won the lawsuit and has now been awarded $100,000 compensation — which will essentially leave citizens on the hook for the payout.

As for the original emergency call, no shooter was ever found in the area.

It’s unclear if Dawson was disciplined by the department for the shooting, though records Olsen obtained under the Freedom of Information Act show Dawson described seeing a “large brown dog” and that he “was verbally counseled … regarding other avenues of approach one can take when entering private property for exterior searches.”

The Free Thought Project has previously reported numerous incidents of unjustified police killings of people’s pets, including one case where an officer laughed in the face of the pet owner whose dog he’d just killed.

This heartless and unjustified police killing of yet another non-threatening pet, leads many to wonder how those so petrified of restrained animals choose law enforcement — and supposedly apprehending dangerous criminals — as a career.

Face the facts - this cop (like so many others) has a pathological obsession to kill animals, threat or not.

Not surprised that you and the other badge bunnies here condone this behavior from cops.

There is no need to hold a tethered dog.

Simply stay out of reach of the tether.

Nice story.

Different circumstances.

The cop, coward that he is, was in no danger from the dog.

He deliberately went up to the animal, just outside the length of the chain and shot the dog.

And badge bunnies like you defend it.

Killing innocent animals for pleasure is a sure sign of a psychopath.

“You Don’t Have a Dog Anymore” Cops Take Turns Shooting Family’s Dog While Laughing

When Fry got up to see what was going on, she heard more shots. Fry recalls those frightening moments:

I hear 2 gunshots. As I’m getting up I hear the third. As soon as I’m standing, I can see out my side window. Police. Fourth shot. I look at what they’re doing & see my dog on the ground. My dog starts screaming. I scream. More shots. Five, six, seven, eight. There’s 2 cops taking turns shooting him with smiles on their faces.

I run out yelling “What the hell!!!!!” They said “Is this your dog?” “Yes!!” I replied. “What happened??!!” The officer said (& I quote!!) “Well you don’t have a dog anymore. He’s done now!” & laughed in my face.

My 1yr old puppy that I did everything in my power to save was laying there dead. They shot my dog like he was a human coming at them with a gun.

Until the 2000's or so I really did not have an issue until people started getting vicious dogs such as pits and rots. Then like over night you had to make sure the dogs were put up. Owners always think the dog is not going to bite but they do. With pits you never know what they will do until its too late. They can be friendly and then you do something and the dog just freaks out and attacks. I really really really hate pits!!!!!!!!

Its not like I have changed the way I do things.

I have really grown to dislike dogs in general because I have been bit so many times. Its bad enough the economy sucks and some people are slow to pay or just don't but then manchilds gotta have a freakin pit!
