Green Forest, AR — A disturbing body cam video was uploaded to Facebook
Thursday which shows a Green Forest police officer let go of his K-9
after other officers had a suspect face down and in handcuffs.
The graphic video does not lie.
According to a report by Officer Tucker Mallett of the Green Forest Police Department, he was called to Garden Gate Apartments on the afternoon of Sept. 20 to investigate a possible disturbance involving a gun. Upon arriving, Mallett called Officer Irvin Earles in for backup. CCSO deputy D.J. Harlan, along with his K-9, Tyson, and another deputy arrived to provide further assistance around the same time.
As the officers approached the apartment a resident told them that Brennan Badley was inside with a gun. Badly then ran out the back door. The video starts as we see Badley non-violently surrender with his hands on his head and he is laid face down on the ground, cuffed and searched.
During the arrest we can see the K-9 unit barking and jumping toward Badley. Seemingly throwing common sense to the wayside, officer Harlan who is holding the angry K-9 walks closer to the suspect. At this point the K-9 is let loose on the suspect. Regardless of whether this release of the K-9 was intentional, the end result was the same.
Badley is screaming in agony as the K-9 is chewing apart his inner thigh. The officers are unable to unlock the dog from the man’s leg. Their only reaction is to yell at Badley telling him to stop moving; because remaining calm and lying still while being eaten alive is a natural reaction.
