When speaking about Morrison, the sheriff said Monday that his actions likely merited a warning, not an arrest, and dashboard cam footage of the arrest clearly shows Deputy Bill Arnold telling Morrison “I’m telling you, you’re going to jail for interfering with my dog.”
I applaud all police officers for their bravery on the job, but overzealous cops like Bill Arnold make it hard for the rest of them.
