Nebraska Police Officer Caught On Tape Shooting A Rottweiller

fire him

Fire his ass. Should be no doubts.

What a piece of shit! He should be tied up and let some attack dogs have some payback! fair is fair!

fire him, what the heck was the dog doing running loose if you loved him so much, by god if one came at me and I had a gun Id shoot it too!

Why did the officer come onto the owner's property to shoot the dog?

So sad… sorry didn't look like that animal was attacking at all!!!!

he should be flogged, fined, made to buy the family a new Rotti pup, which won't replace Bos, and then fired. he should never be allowed to own an animal.

He should have come back when the family was home. Some of us get dogs for a reason. They protect our family and homes.

that cop needs to go that dog was not acting mean or he would haven't been running from him while he was being shot at. this dog owner would have showed that cop what acting mean was if that was my dog…

Wtf! The bastard needs to be fired and put in jail!!!

Oh really pepper spray …you had time to put it back in its holster and then pull your fucking gun out …you are an asshole bastard

didn't look like the dog was able to attack, could clearly see the chain. FIRE HIM!!!!!

Pig mother fucker! That dog was feet from his dog house. I'm so tired of this country becoming a police state. This country is out of control anymore. Police do whatever they want. They lie , beat , steal , ect as they please. If you are a police officer.. And you abuse the power the people give you. They court should be allowed to double the action they take against you.

Fuck you

THAT's F'D UP..FIRE HIM.

I love dogs and think this is awful, however you can't see what happened behind the house, if the dog really attacked him and that is no servaliiance camera. It's moving erratically which means it was hand held. May be a typical situation where illiegle actions are going on and an innocent animal is sent out to hold officers at bay.

How the hell was the dog acting aggressively? How aggressive can a dog that's chained up possibly be?

The dog wasn't loose. You can see on the video that it was tied up to the fence. After the police officer dragged the poor puppy, if you look closely, it looks like he undoes the leash from the fence to make it look like the dog was running after him. I say shoot the jerk like he shot that poor doggie. I have a Rott and I was be ticked off if some cop came in my yard for no reason and shot her!

that dog was chained up what right did he have for shooting it, He should be fired immediately.
and then sued.

The dog was on a chain in it's own backyard. Moron !!!!!!

Typical effing cop thinking he can get away with murder! If it was a citizen they would be facing animal cruelty charges!

the dog was clearly on a chain…he had no need at all to shoot it.

I cannot believe that a cop couldn't shoot better. There was no need for multiple shots if that close. The dog did not appear aggressive prior to but video was unclear. If the cop was on the property he shouldn't have been in the first place. Cop is trigger happy, should be fired.

He should go spend time in the same cell Mike Vick was in!

omg! I wanted to throw up and cry! fire his ass, now! get him off the force before his dumb, warped sence of control lures him to due this to a human or another animal. my heart goes out to the family of this poor rottie.

I agree.

Rhonda Burnett if you come on MY property and shoot MY dog you better do it on your way to the airport to leave the country you smartass!!! I hope he gets fired…sorry SOB!!!

fire that son of a bitch. I am fed up with hearing about animal cruelty and when a cop does it I am even more sickened. Serve and Protect? My ass! That dog did nothing and I tell you, I find ANYONE messing with my babies they would have me to deal with. I don't care who you are!

to be honest i detest most cops. not the honest measured officers that selflessly protect and serve…..that other kind and i know you know the kind i mean. lol

that poor dog was still moving a little in the video so he was still alive barely probably but still he may have been able to be saved from dying! that MF needs to be shot just like he did to that poor innocent dog! I fucking hate people who think they can get away with shit like this!

Firing him isn't enough!!!!! If that dog was doing anything wrong, he could have done something besides shooting him so many times.. I hate that cop!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! If they keep him on the force then they are not worth 2 cents as a department.

Shoot that dumbass cop! See how it feels, and he should most definitely lose his job and be charged with cruelty to animals.

I almost threw up watching this! what kinda sick person kills a family pet like that? Multiple shots and the dog was chained and helpless. That was no different than setting the dog on fire. Poor bos was running for his life. Sick bastard i wouldnt piss on him if he was on fire. His badge needs to be taken before he targets humans next

He should be fired, that is a very sad video..

Fuck firing the guy string his ass up!!! Hells got a nice cozy spot set up just for you you stupid dirty freaking pig!!!!!

What is wrong with this guy. Is his next victim going to be a person. This man is in serious need of some mental health. What he did was wrong on so many levels. He needs to be fired, fined and jailed and apparently treated for his stupidity. What a joke. And the poor dog had no chance. Being tied up and all he couldn't attack. And what was the police doing in their yard in the first place?

This is terrible. at the very least that officer should apologize to that family. who shoots a puppy and then drags it around by its leg??? He's sadistic. and his superiors can clearly see on this video that he deserves termination. I have a pit, and if someone EVER shot my dog like that in cold blood they would not live to regret it.

Aww I can't watch that but he should
Be shot as well !

this pisses me off, that a cop would shot a dog for no good reason, , fire th cops ass.

Maybe if we can find the dog's mom then send her to "deal" with the cop. Oh, well.

This man needs to be terminated. First off: why was he on the property in the first place? Second: It is obvious the dog was in a motion away from the officer (after the pepper spray). And it honestly looks like a dog spinning and playing not aggression. If the dog is in a motion away from him he is not attacking and therefor there is no stance for shooting him. Another thing… he shot the dog and stood there while it bled to death! What kind of human being does that! If anything else you be a man and finish what you started, not allow that beautiful dog to die a long agonizing death! I want him gone and want to know who to call and where to write to get it done! I don't want someone like that walking the streets as a "protector".

Poor dog…

Fire that S.O.B…what right did he have to do that…

Why was the cop even at the house to begin with? And it's that the same thing as tampering with evidence? I t was a 18 month old puppy it was probably jumping and wanting to play. It looked to me that the cop was a chicken shit, afraid of a pup so shot it, give me a break. What if a kid had been running around that house at that time would he have shot it saying it was aggressive? Cops overstep that badge everyday, it's time to stand up to them and hold them accountable.I'm sorry but had that been my dog he would've gotten his ass beat right there.

Someone is obviously video taping the the recording…..

FIRE HIS ASS! It plainly shows he has no compassion the way he just dragged the dog and dropped him. Why was he in these peoples yard and not in his patrol car? This man just makes me SICK to think he is in our society to protect us.

Fire the &$@()!!!! I don't usually use such language, but this angered me to my core! What a cold hearted SOB! This could've been handled totally differently!

no it looked like he was trying to get whatever stung him on the butt, wasnt even going toward the officer was going the other way

That dumbass should get fired. And jailed

I don't understand. What did the dog do? And how is he justified being on these people's property?

dog was a chain for crying outloud.Sue his ass..What the hell was he doing on their property anyway.

and i would know u don't use that language ever!!!

send the sick bastard to hell where he belongs.

Fired! Sick

What was he doing in the back of the house? Cop was behind house and shot the dog, then the dog raced away. Sadly he didn't get far. Police like that need to be fired. NO probable cause to shoot the dog.

This is the most awful animal abuse I have ever seen

THAT DAM COP IS A SICK BASTARD, FIRE HIS ASS AND MAKE HIM PAY THESE PEOPLE WHAT EVER IT TAKES TO HELL EASE THE PAIN OF IT ALL THE DOG WASNT TRYING TO ATTACK ANY ONE HE WAS SPINNING AROUND TRYING TO GET THE PAIN OF THE BULLETS TO STOP HURTING, I HOPE AND PRAY SOMETHING REALLY BAD HAPPENS TO THIS SCUM PIECE OF SHIT BECAUSE THAT IS ALL HE IS AND I BET HE DIDn't KNOW THAT IT WAS BEING FILMED SEE ASSHOLE THE CAMERA WAS ROLLING AND GUESS WHO WAS THE STAR YOUR AN FING IDIOT AND YOUR A LYING ONE AT THAT.

It isn't bad enough that he shoots the poor dog, but then he lets it lay there and suffer a long slow death. What a jerk – FIRE HIS ASS!

Seriously ridiculous! The cop could have just backed off, it was chained.

What upsets me is the cop will always say the DOG PROVOKED him and charged at him. They believe the cop and he get's off scott free.

True, so sad:(

There has to be more to the story…

He's wrong for that no questions about it

Why didn't this loser cop leave a note or contact the owners about what happened. What kind of cop is that? And cops wonder why people don't like them nor trust them. CAUSE THEY ARE SKETCHY A$$ MOTHER F***ERS! I hope he gets shot so he will know how that dog and his family felt!

I'd like to know why the cop was there to begin with! The area looks like it was the dog's territory in the yard and you can see his dog house in a kennel area. The family was out – who called him and why? I watched the video – the dog was already hurt or something and was spinning in circles and the cop is taking aim at close range. He should be fired. Unless I hear the "story" he didn't even belong there and could have called animal control or used a tazer. This is outrageous!

lock the "cop" pig in my opinion in a cell with charles manson that seems fitting to me!

I agree it's wrong but what if the dog had just attacked his 4 year old son – I think I'd probably do the same thing regardless of who's pet it was.

hmmm…it does look like a hand held camera, however by your thinking the camera could mounted wrong and some motion cameras do behave erratically and waver in focus as it moves…how would you know what a typical situation of illegal actions are…not to mention the dog looks tied and it's retreating… I'm not for anyone side, only the dogs and cops go too far…infringing on people rights. If you don't have a warrent and no PC to be on the property cop or not I expect my dog to protect my family and property also.

WHY IN THE HELL WAS THE COP AT THERE HOUSE TO START WITH THAT COP SHOULD BE PUT IN JAIL.
LIKE ALL WAY THE COP NEVER DOES NO WROUG THEY GET A WAY WITH SHIT LIKE THIS.

pretty bad when cops think they are above the law. but not all cops are bad, sure this ones needs fired and replace the dog. and if they don't fire him then sue his ass in court.
his ass in court.

dont get me started on that 1!

pretty bad when cops think they are above the law. but not all cops are bad, sure this ones needs fired and replace the dog. and if they don't fire him then sue his ass in court.

That officer better be fired for his injustice of cold blooded murder of that beautiful family pet. There are no doubts that he did it and without and since he had no reason to be there. He planned to do it. So if people are put in jail for killing people the least they can do is fire this officer and then give the family something for their pain and lost. The man owes that family and if I were them I would sue the police department and the man. Nothing will bring Bos back but in time it would replace the beloved pet with another.

1st no one saw what happened behind the house. 2nd the officer was aiming, he was shooting the dog repeatedly on purpose it looks like he was trying to aim for the head to put it out of its misery. 4th the witnesses said the rottie was acting aggressive and Rotties aren't naturally aggressive but they can be trained to be. 5th why was the officer there???

I should there is some kind of punishment for this

I can see the riots that are going to start in that town because of this, hell I'll even lead the group fire that god damn SOB now, there was no cause for this. the dog wasn't even attacking, it was in it's own yard. chained to a fence. who in hell was it harming? fire him or hang him hell do both.

You are one sick son of a bitch and I hope they fire your ass for this!

stupid asshole…he should be shot in the same manner. they"ll give any jerk a badge an when they do….he becomes judge ,, jurry…….god?

I think he should be charged with animal abuse and trespassing.

This was a senseless act of violence and it makes you wonder if he'll stick to shooting innocent dogs or move onto humans next. Take away his badge… He's not worthy of carrying it, nor a gun. How sickening. They're supposed to serve and protect. Not shoot and kill a families pet…..

Where was this? In the back yard? Why was he there? Was the dog leashed?
If a dog isn't on a leash in many states, this is considered self defense. It's imperative that you put your dog on a leash at all times, even a chihuahua, because if something horrible happens to them when they are not on one, you could still be fined or sued for any harm they may have caused and there is nothing you can do about harm brought upon them.
That said, I'm still very confused as to why the officer was there.

What is seen in this video is a person covering up his tracks! forget the uniform if anyone else had killed the dog in cold blood, dragged it to the side and washed up the mess they would be found guilty….I find this action shocking! I would take this to the state level if the police department is not seeing this for what it is…..Sad day,

someone shoots my dog cop or not they better shoot me too,, because I will not forget..

They would've had to call 911 after I shoot that cop 10 times and drag his ass by the leg.fat ass cop. I would want to know why his fat ass was on my property.

I am sorry my husband was a police officer and he would of never shot a dog that was chained he was not harming him in the least bit , This guy should be fired today! there was not reason what so ever he should of done this!

I surely would not want him protecting me on the street!

I don't agree with the shooting, you could clearly see the doggie was running away from him and afraid in circles feeling cornered. All dogs bark and try to protect their grounds. That doesn't mean the poor dog launched at him. I have 5 doggies and can only imagine the pain this family is going through.

What?…What do you base this on? I read the story & watched the video…doesn't provide enough information..What about the witness report's the story mentions? All you have is the owners "opinion"…that I can see….Just like when they interview the neighbor of a convicted mass murderer.."oh he was a quiet man"…let's get the facts out first..

Why was the cop there to begin with?? That is sick!!

The officer shouldn't have been on the property in the first place the dog was protecting his owners home like he was supposed to he didn't deserve getting shot and I think the officer should be fired 1 by coming on the property for no reason just because he has a badge don't mean a damn thing

I live in Nebraska not to far from there. This is by far the worst and most discomforting thing to see. Cops are not here to protect us unless it is at their convince. They get away with anything as far as I am concerned. I have 3 dogs 2 of which a medium sized dogs and their 7 puppies. I will never never leave my dogs outside in my 6 ft fenced yard while I am not home because of cops wanting to kill family pets, protectors and loved ones. But if the cops had their own pet shot they would do the same as us everyday people and fight for justice but later will find out they will be lie others and get no justice. I do not trust cops nor do I like them. This is crazy and heartbreaking..If you have a pet love them and hold them and promise with all your heart and soul you will protect them from jerks and irresponsible cops like this man and many others.My dogs love everyone never shown their teeth or aggression unless they have a reason to. WHy was the cop there in the first place? Who knows but it will be a BS reason I am sure. Something needs to change and cops need to be taught that not all dogs are mean and nasty. They need new training and us as pet owners to be trained to see these ass***** pay for what they do.

I hope PETA sees this film! They will take care of this cop!

There is a special place in Hell for people who harm animals…

Why was the POS Cop even there?

Well if that's the case then yes he shouldve put the dog down but by the looks of it he just shot the little guy

OMG IT WAS CLEAR THAT THE DOG WAS TRYING TO GET AWAY FROM HIM! WTF…he should be fired for this…what was he doing at the property to begin with! so wrong on so many levels…he should be made to pay for this ~.

Should do same to him

The police department will not do anything because it was an animal. But they need to consider that this "cop" has some serious issues that made him act the way he did. This time it was a family pet, but next time it might be a family member. It is obvious that he needs his badge and gun taken away from him until he gets help for his psycological issues. It is extrememly frightening that the police force has men and women with mental health issues.

shoot the fuckin cop!

Fire this loser!

please explain to me how a chained dog is sooooo aggressive that you couldn't move out of reach of his chain that you had to shoot him multiple times, some of you will think its inappropriate but "Officers" like that should be take out back and shot in the groin so they die a slow and painful death just like that poor animal. If we need police like that to protect us then I would rather just protect myself.

Charge his ass with animal cruelty, he'll with murder n throw his ass in jail!

How abt we chain you up asshole…shoot you and leave you to die!!! I hope you spend the rest of your life looking over your shoulder in fear of retaliation.

Oh mein Gott :O Verfickte Drecks Bullen .

SHOOT THE COP.

forget the FEAR of retaliation- somebody just needs to do it!!! i'm definitely a hater right now!

Why did this happen? This cop needs to be shot and fired! If That ever happened to one of my pets I would b a force to b reckoned with!

Yeah the dog was only whirling around towards the pain he was in.so he had already shot the dog when the dog came into frame.let me jst say too this is not a first kill for this man. No one could react so coldly at having to do something as gruesome as this slaying was unless A. the dog had maimed a child orB. they are a psychopath.

Fire his a$$.. Then make him shoot himself till he Dies….! And make sure it's on camera so we can laugh at the stupid idiot..! Dudes like that give police a bad image..!

I have no idea if that was the case, but clearly the dog was out of its pen, just think there has to be more to the story…

If that was my dog and cop or not id do him the same way he treated my dog. I own pitbulls and they r nothin but babies. Its human stupidity 2 y these big dogs have bad reputations.

the only thing I can tell u is that there is no way with THIS video that anyone can say for certain what was the dogs behavior on the other side of the wall or what was the officers behavior behind the wall. Maybe the officer was being ignorant to recognizing the physical cues to the dog and shouldve backed away or the dog was in fact being aggressive and he had no choice. In the end, the doggie is dead and the officer WILL keep his job. UNLESS other video surfaces showing what happened on the other side of that wall. This is MY FEAR for our dogs Hunny. Now do you understand???

What an ASSHOLE! First of all what is that fat bastard doing as a police officer, don't they have a weight limit? This is positively unacceptable behavior. What the F@#K was he doing on the property in the first place? People like this need to be punished and the punishment should fit the crime. He is a sorry son of a bitch who should be fired and locked up for LIFE! He obviously has no life, I can't imagine he has a family since he obviously has NO SOUL! and if by any chance he is married, she needs to leave his ass cuz I know she is a victim of domestic abuse. These are the people that should be sent to live on the moon without space suits for air! I hope he FRIES (maybe he won't in this life but HE DEFINITELY WILL IN HIS NEXT ONE) BURN IN HELL you sorry excuse for a human being and hopefully Nebraska takes away his badge so he can't hide behind it!

That dog was tied up and defenseless….how far could he have lunged tied to a fence? Why was the officer on their property in the first place? Give my Rottie and I 5 minutes with that heartless bastard…..

The dog wasn't tied up. That rope looking thing that is moving around is actuilly the garden hose. you can see the officer take it down before he starts washing the concrete

No way can I watch, I'm sick just reading the header. I hate ppl.

I hate that these are supposed to be the people we teach our children to trust and respect….really …?

i hope someone does to him what he did. bastard

and yet, our grandfather, dear friend and a family members hubbie are and were respected members of this very community…it is a damn shame that a few rotten apples spoil the barrel!

This animal clearly is unworthy off this earth, i speak of the the 2 legged one of coarse. He is so lucky that wasnt my dog.he would beg to be fired.This guy should learn to be a man.another sissy with a gun.

disgusing , who was filming without calling 911…

What a complete jerk!!!

Shit! Jamie – you could have warned me the video was so graphic!!

Shooting a chained up dog is cowardly. Fire him.

If that awful yellow lab from across the street comes at me or my kid again I'd shoot it in a heart beat!

The dog was not tied up it was out of its kennel… The video only shows a small portion of what happened – the cop probably shot it once and injured it and had to shoot it again to put it out of its misery: http://www.ronpaulforums.com/showthread.php?390860-AZ-Cop-shoots-family-dog-claims-dog-attacked-him.-Video-shows-otherwise.

You need to re-watch. The officer unhooked the chain from the fence. THAT wan NOT the hose!

"Vengeance is mine saith the LORD" That man just put every loved one he has in jeopardy. GOD doesn't always just target the sinner, He sometimes goes after those they love! His ass is done!

Why was he there in the first place? no one was home. How can we tell our children to trust a cop when they do this kind of stuff? where is Karma when you need it?

If anyone shot my dog, even a cop, they would receive a bullet between the eyes. Badge or no badge, this guy is a punk that doesn't deserve to live.

Oh, and if the police support his actions, it is time for the citizens of this town take action at the highest levels and install a new ethical leadership in the police dept. There is no possible way in hell the police dept can stand behind this violent criminal. if there was no wrong doing, why'd he cover it up. It is blatantly obvious what he did, and anyone that backs him should be rightfully terminated.

Disgusting. Shameful. Burn in h$**. Fire him and jail.

I really hope this cop ends up SHOT!

The officer should be excited for this murder.

My God….

That guy should suffer just like the pup did….inhumane people in this world=lowers my head shakin it slowly=rip puppy..

I'd like to see the officer's "termination" as well. Not the kind of termination that ends one's job, either.

It's so hard to watch that video…. Made me burst out loud….

Makes my stomach turn.

This whole thing smacks of cover up because there are zero details as to why the cop was there in the first place and their explanation of why he was washing the evidence away is crap. If they really wanted clarity on the situation they would give all of the details, but they aren't.

OMG..this makes me sick. That poor dog. I have to wonder why he moved the dog and wash away the blood? I do not believe his story. People, please keep your dog inside the house or a run when you are not home or unable to watch them.

this is why when we're not home we have our rotties locked up in crates inside the house. whenever they need to go outside to potty, i'm right there beside them because of stupid assholes like this. there can be no justice served here, only retribution. Sometimes what is right and what is legal, are two completely different things.

so sad people like to kill for no reason. My heart goes out to the family for there loss.

Discusting fat slob, on the property illegally, while the family was out in broad day light and destroys private property, killing a fsmily pet. Then attempts to cover it up. That is unacceptable, try that at my house on my property. It would cost you more than your job, wake up if he isnt punished for his actions you send a message to all the other lowlifes with a badge its ok to kill what is ours.

Cops are swine. They love to kill and abuse their power needlessly. And police departments always back their thugs in uniform. Cops do not deserve respect. They do deserve disrespect, but that is trouble to show it, since contempt of cop will get you in trouble in itself. Cops are proud of" "Let them hate, so long as they fear". Thugs in uniform is what cops are. And swine.

Good question. Cops will lie when they answer, though.

Not to say that the dog deserved to get shot because he certainly didnt from what I can see, but it says the family wasn't home then you can hear kids talking. It also seems like someone video taped this when it said in the article it was home surveillance…..seems kinda fishy to me.

Christina DelValle it looks like a cell phone recording o the security feed if you look at the top of the screen you can see that its two seperate images the bottom being the back of the house. my biggest issue is "why was he there?" if the dog wasnt between him and a victim or preventing him from helping a human why not call animal folks or wait till the owners home and have them fix it. pointis he went back there to kill the dog and then tried to cover it up. cut and dry.

So sick, the dog was chained up, hope he gets shot!!

What a prick. I lost my dog to a cop speeding down the road when I was a kid.

id Murder that officer if it was my dog.

Can't wait to see this asshole in a coffin… he does not deserve it to be flagged drapped. Fat SOB, Karma (and animals lovers) will get him. Good cops die and this POS is alive. WHY?

It's becoming an everyday occurrence – I think we'd be better off with criminals running around in police cars – they may steal our stuff, but at least they might not shoot every dog on site. I can't even begin to tell you how much respect I've lost for the police in the past 6 months. And he'll get a slap on the wrist, just like every other one of the puffy chested pieces of shit that hide behind a badge. Do the world a favor – turn in your badge and weapon and go be mall security – make the world a safer place for the rest of us.

It was definitely the garden hose. Zero doubt. The whole reason the cop was called in was because the dog was loose. The owner does not deny that the dog was loose. The point is, though, that the supposed attack is definitely in doubt, and even so, in my mind, if a stranger comes in on the property the dog knows is his, then of course they will react to that. The cop should have called animal control and then informed the owner. I'd like to know if they found any evidence of pepper spray on the dog. The cop probably only stated that part of it after it was too late to check. I absolutely believe the cop was in the wrong.
