Summary
Former McNairy County Sheriff’s deputy Connor Brackin, 24, has been fired and charged with seven counts of aggravated animal cruelty and eight counts of reckless endangerment after allegedly shooting seven dogs during an animal welfare check in Bethel Springs, Tennessee.
Brackin, who had been on the job for less than a month, reportedly released one dog to the welfare caller before killing the others for unknown reasons.
Following a Tennessee Bureau of Investigation probe, Brackin turned himself in and was released on bond.
Wow a cop actually got in trouble for dog murder. That’s what, 1 in 40,000 per year?
Of course he’s not on the force anymore. Now he has time to run for sheriff itself!
His union will get his job back (with back pay and benefits); and an apology for treating him so horribly.
The news here is that he was charged. Cops do this daily
Of course the chucklefuck is wearing a Captain America t-shirt in his mugshot. Quite on-brand.
This guy better watch out, Trump might pick him for the USDA-APHIS head.
Someone ought to put this future serial killer out before he starts his career on humans.
He will kill black people. Nothing will happen.
Trump’s gonna put this guy in charge of agriculture or something, just watch.
Secretary of the Interior
Gonna replace Noem. She only killed one dog.
And a goat. That’s gotta count for something.
Fascist saw an opportunity to harm animals and got carried away. Couldn’t help himself. How many other sick individuals stalk our streets with a gun and a badge?
I’m all for calling out fascism, but let’s not overuse it. He’s a loser for sure.
Nope. US cops are fascists. I refer to them as what they are.
Dude didn’t even make it a full month on the force before doing something so needlessly violent that he got fired and charged. Way to pick 'em.
In my town, a sheriff deputy was sworn in and fired later in the same day for stalking and trying to use his position to solicit nude photos from an underage high school student. I think we win the terrible judgement contest.
How far south?
Cops gonna cop.
Gee I sure hope no one jumps his ass and beats the everloving shit out of him
I wonder what else he did to end up charged with crimes instead of just fired? One of those bullets must have gone through a kids bedroom or something, or the call was to a close friend of an official.
DOJ: Police Shooting Family Dogs has Become ‘Epidemic’
There are more and better links that I will add later. No time now.
working for less than a month… allowed to walk around with a human killing device.
hairdressers require more certification and supervision than police ‘officers’.
I would be going to prison or dead shortly after discovering that cops killed my dogs.
I care more about my dogs than I do about the vast majority of humans. And I care about humans way more than cops.
I have reasoned this is why some do it.
High personal damage, zero legal consequences.
