Sheriff's office explains how K-9 bit teacher as deputy dropped child off at school

Major Jeff Nix of the Butts County Sheriff's Office said this was an unfortunate accident.

[@A.R.B.J.]

He's trying to spin it to make it all the teachers fault.

That's correct let us make this the teacher/victim fault Because of the fact, she opens rear doors for our children every morning, never mind it's the deputy's job to protect the public from harm and the rear door should have been locked. The way I see it she was doing her job. No don't kill the dog, he was doing what he was trained to do, but the human in charge of the dog was careless. simple fix, get the lock control panel on the driver's door fixed, then the door won't open until the driver unlocks it. It was a careless mistake it can be fixed. These teachers are out there looking out for our children not reading everything on cars and trucks. I support BCSO but the teacher didn't do anything wrong and It's being played as she did. I thank them for being out there in the heat, rain, and cold every day for the children.
