💨 Abstract
In New Orleans, a jury ruled that a police officer who killed a 16-week-old puppy violated the owners' constitutional rights, but qualified immunity prevented punishment. The jury awarded the owners $10,400 in damages. The officer believed the dog, Apollo, might bite him in the genitals. Despite multiple internal investigations condemning his actions, Burmaster was cleared of wrongdoing, sparking criticism.
