No sir which is why I'm not jumping to conclusions and calling anyone a murderer.
I fully agree a k9 should not be elevated to the status of a human. The penalties for killing one shouldn't even come close to taking a human life regardless of how I feel for dogs.
Exactly; and for not accommodating the officer benefit of a doubt and saying "perp got what he had coming; he'd be dead if he did that to my dog too!!" we're blind 'fergusonites'.
Give the officer a hearing in a REAL court which recognizes an officer's safety, not a dog's life, determine level of force.
