A cop walks up to the front door of a family’s home. Nobody answers the door, so he just lets himself in and begins to look around. About a minute later, shots ring out from inside the house. He just shot the family dog. The husband was at work. The wife was out of town. The 4 kids were at school. It was just Zelda, the family’s beloved Belgian Malinois, being a good girl, doing her job protecting their home from intruders. Then the cop walks back outside.
Does he call the family to tell them what happened? No. He calls more cops and basically an army of police officers arrive at this home in this quiet neighborhood, and they begin to circle the wagons. They then proceed to go all through the family’s home, garage and backyard, for a period of about 40 minutes – all without even notifying this family, or obtaining their permission to do so. Oh, and also – without a warrant. Surely they made this right with the family? Apologized? Compensated them in some way? Surely they fired the officer and prosecuted him for unlawfully entering the family’s home and killing their dog?

Did the Wake County Sheriff's Office serve the community here? Or did they attempt to hide misconduct from the public, shield themselves from accountability, and do their best to avoid justice?
NOTE: the bodycam video showing a cop walking to the front door is from one of the responding officers. There is no bodycam from the shooter.
When conspiracy to subvert justice is department policy.
It's not proof, but when the supervisor asked him, "Did you hear the dog?!" he said, "I did not." Often liars neglect to use contractions, because they are methodically trying to emphisize their answers, where an honest person would say, "I didn't.", because an honest person won't need to emphasize a true statement. His supervisor should have noticed that as a red flag, and rather than protect a lying dog killing officer, the supervisor should have protected his community from this officer. I think shielding this officer is an indication of this supervisor's dereliction of duty.
Yes, its the fault of this breaking and entering, 4th amendment ignoring, family dog killing liar cop, but supervisors who ignore their own training and experiences for the purpose of protecting a criminal, are the very reason criminal cops like this are confident enough to violate the public's 4th amendment rights and snowball this catastrophe into murdering a family pet. What a horrific example this county sets for the entire country to see. It's a series of crimes that would never happen if they obeyed the amendments made to protect the innocent home owners. The officer and the Supervisor should have been dismissed and forbidden from working in law enforcement ever again and perhaps been sentenced to prison for the crimes and aiding and abetting a criminal. Disgraceful for all law enforcers!
I do not know what I would have done if I was the resident of that home if I was home with the dog, but I am pretty sure I would have been killed by the officer.
Abolish all the immunities‼ Those who don't break the laws do not need immunity for not breaking the law.🤯🚨This Sovereign Citizen ideology in our public servants needs to end. 💡A sovereign citizen mentality / attitude of the mind / or way of thinking can manifest in public servants who believe they are not bound by the laws they are sworn to uphold, and leads to a breakdown in the rule of law. 🤯'The Scale Of This Threat Is Staggering' Time To Start Charging Them With Their Crimes‼ Abolishing qualified immunity‼
How is this guy still employed?
"Officer" needs training; he forgot to say "I got a call", "we had info that a gunman was in the home" or "I thought I heard someone scream for help" or some other laffable bs. The dog didn't even present an ID when asked.
What a nightmare:/ even more that cops are not held accountable, what would happen if i shot a police k9
Fire and charge all police who do not have their body cam on.
Sue their ass off!!!!!
You do amazing work and I always enjoy your videos👍
He is a dangerous criminal the rest of the cops there entered into a conspiracy with him, and they all should be fired, and jailed. The dog shooter should get 10 yrs. And if the DA doesn't charge he is a corrupt coward. Im too tired of this, I don't care about laws anymore for these people
They corrupted the system.
I'm surprised this snowflake of a deputy didn't shoot the cat as well. Sue sue SUEEEEE! Country bumpkins with badges.
This country is getting pathetic. 😥😮💨😳😡
He was looking in the back to shoot the cat. The cat was a witness.
First lie revealed in 12 seconds. "The door was open…" Then the camera shows the cop knocking on the closed door.
The lies come so naturally!
It’s like pulp fiction.
A storm door is a door. I don't see the nuance of it being a storm door as being significant in allowing a cop without a warrant to open it and walk through it.
Earning the HATE !!!!
Law Suit!!!
The concern for the family is, can they continue to live there? Its sad. Guess the entire neighborhood is shaken, the entire nation really at this point because that 'mistake' can happen anywhere. Talk about ptsd. People need to pray more. Poor dog. Lucky cat. Thank God no one was home to get hurt or otherwise. Prayers go up for the family.
This qualified immunity needs to be abolished, ASAP.
Sue that department for everything
catch me outside
No body camera because he was looking to shoot something for somebody. That looks a lot like he was planning to do some killing.
Anyone can just yell sheriffs office and walk on in where they please? Reminds me of the actual video of burglars busting doors and yelling police
The entire communities of this county should be in fear of this sheriffs department. If they get by with this no accountability they can do this to you or anyone ….
It needs to be said. If the kids were there, he would have shot one or both of them.
Thank goodness the homeowner wasn't home at the time and surprised the cop. Or there would be a dead person.
That dirty mf cop. This video made me more upset then any other. I had a very healthy active 4 year old german shepherd. He suddenly just died something burst inside of him. He passed away Dec 17 of this year. Watching this video gave me horror s. I hate cops
Another of many violations of the law by the law.
Criminal behaviour in every way.
Disgusting!!!!!!!!
What is in their water? He is obviously a cat person…. Why did a dog have to die? The domestic terrorist is going to be prosecuted right?!?…
Imagine if the female owner were taking a shower with a gun in the bathroom for protection. She just got out, here's the dog barking and someone walking through her house without announcing who they are. The cop opens the bathroom door, she shoots him or he shoots her – either way she's dead or going to prison, lose/lose. This entire thing is messed up.
That wussy shouldn't be a cop
Thank God for security cameras. Wonder if the Pig knew when lying to his boss about the dog barking, that his lie was being recorded for all to see.
I hope this family sees the live in hell out of that police department, they should also have every single one of those police officers trespassed permanently off their property
You are a true American Hero. Thank you so much.
Before I even watch this:
If you shoot my dog, I WILL shoot you. I DO NOT GIVE A FUCK.
If you shoot my neighbor's dog, I WILL shoot you. I DO NOT GIVE A FUCK.
I'll take the return fire, I'll do the time, I will stand there in court and tell the judge I WILL do it again. I DO NOT GIVE A FUCK.
Now I am going to move on and ignore this video for my own blood pressure.
The cop opens the door to the house while he has his video camera on. How come the video camera on officer doesn't show the door that is supposedly partially open. Corrupt cops!
If you watch when he knocks on the door with his right hand the door is closed if it were even opened a little bit his arm movements would have moved to compensate for the door movement.
Thank god no one was home for this monster to murder.
I guarantee you there would be consequences
