🚨 8 shots. 2 dead dogs. “Keeping the peace.”
Bodycam shows her reaching for her Rottweiler. Officer Holland fired 8 shots, killing both dogs.
Palestine, Arkansas, officer Harold Holland was at Haley Smallwood’s home while her ex-husband picked up his belongings. When he walked out, the dogs came out of the room.
“Did the dog bite you?”
“No.”
His justification? It came at him.
Six children were inside the home. Holland was charged with first-degree assault, a Class A misdemeanor, and released from jail less than two hours after booking. He remains employed by the department.
Apparently, “keeping the peace” means leaving the family traumatized and the officer employed.
