i highley suspect that the last thing on those officers' minds are how they are going to look on camera when the smoke clears.
that situation could have been handled a thousand different ways including how it was handled.
it could of have had as many different outcomes.
judgement, training, and experience in the field is what determines those outcomes.
you do not gain judgement and experience in situations like these without partaking in them.
which is why there are cameras installed. when the smoke clears, superiors reveiw the situation and decide wether or not it was handled accordingly. the men that did well get a pat on the back. the men that did not do so well get reprimanded, retrained, or fired.
i'd bet the dog handler falls in the latter of those two catagories.
Well said. I hope your right...
