Taking the facts as presented as accurate this was a grave injustice and the prosecutor should do ten years while the judge should be disbarred and have to pay her his/her salary accumulated during those ten years.

Yes she should be pardoned if her conviction cannot be overturned.

She went to prison and served the entire bull feces sentence. She deserves a lot more than a pardon.

A 24-year Takoma Park police department veteran admitted yesterday to helping cover up unprovoked attacks, one involving a Prince George’s County police dog, on two homeless burglary suspects.

Sgt. Dennis Bonn pleaded guilty in U.S. District Court in Greenbelt to being an accessory after the fact in the 1995 incident. Bonn, who retired from the police force Nov. 1, also agreed to cooperate with related federal civil rights prosecutions.

After a first trial jury acquitted her of the conspiracy charge and deadlocked 11-1 for acquittal on the civil rights charge, the government nonetheless went forward with a second trial.

It would appear that there’s a lot more to this story…like someone attempting to save their own butt.

Should have never been in charge of a dog.

Overly harsh sentence however.

Hopefully she learned the error of her ways siccing dogs on the innocent.

Illegals have it better than citizens now. Hell you can shoot a woman on a pier and not even get charged.

The immigration status matters not.

She sicced a dog on a person when not appropriate.

We she wasn’t qualified to handle a dog but she had a badge and a gun… . Makes perfect sense.

According to her supervisor who ordered the attack and cut a deal in the case for a fifty percent reduction in sentencing.

Why do you accept his word as gospel?

komobu:

If the SOP called for the dogs to bite, why vilify a handler? The handler doesnt train the dog.

From the article in the OP, policy has changed, and now they’re no longer trained to bite:

"Under revised rules, the department now trains them to merely bark at suspects, holding them at bay until police arrive. "

To me, that’s just more spaghetti-armed wokeness. What’s the point of having a barking dog in these situations? Dog should chomp down until the handler orders it to release.

But to the point of your question, it shouldn’t be the handler’s fault that the dog bit. That was the whole point of having the dog there that day.

Absolute travesty.
