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 Georgeâs 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 thereâs a lot more to this storyâŚlike 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.

âŚand IFâŚour laws had been enforced, this NEVER would or should have come upâŚcomprende?
The immigration status matters not.
She sicced a dog on a person when not appropriate.

Her siccing the dog on the innocent twice.
Did you not read the case?
Allan
They are allowed a retrial in that circumstance.

We she wasnât 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?
She should have had a better lawyer advising her.
The one she had sucked.
Allan
What evidence do you have to support that? What bad advice did he give her?
You have no possible way of knowing what advice he gave her.
Hint, Clients donât always take the advice of their atty⌠.

From the article in the OP, policy has changed, and now theyâre 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, thatâs just more spaghetti-armed wokeness. Whatâs 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 shouldnât be the handlerâs fault that the dog bit. That was the whole point of having the dog there that day.
Absolute travesty.

From the article:
" On instructions from her canine training officer, Stephanie Mohr released her dog, which bit the suspect in the leg, preventing his escape."
