PULASKI COUNTY AND NORTH LITTLE ROCK ANIMAL SERVICES "SCREWED THE POOCH" IN CASE OF A MISSING DOG



Darryl Lunon purchased a German Shepherd puppy from a breeder in Montana early last year.

BIBI VON SONNENBERG  - LUNON'S PRIDE AND JOY
 
He named her Bibi and had big plans for her. Lunon was training her to be a show dog and hoped she would one day breed future show dogs.

 



Then in February the 10-month old pup ran off Lunon's five acres in east Little Rock. 




Lunon called Little Rock and Pulaski county animal control...both said they had not picked her up. He put up flyers everywhere...only to later learn that Pulaski county animal control had picked Bibi up...and delivered her to North Little Rock Animal Control.





But nobody called Lunon.

"They had three different ways,” Lunon told reporters. “There was a collar with her name and my last name and phone number, there was a microchip and then she also had a tattoo in her right ear. And so part of the procedures for North Little Rock and Pulaski county was to look for the collar or a microchip. So Pulaski county failed to do that. And so did North Little Rock."

North Little Rock intake paperwork show that the dog was wearing a red collar when it arrived.

But five days later Bibi was spayed. And a week after that she was adopted.

"My goal now is to get the dog back so I can continue the schitzon training,” says Lunon. “And also...I love the dog. I mean...I am a dog lover. And so I love the dog dearly. And the clubs that I'm in…we all are devastated."




DARYL LUNON & BIBI

Lunon says he plans to file suit next week to get Bibi back.


Lunon says he paid over $2,000.00 for his dog from a breeder out of Montana. Bibi’s uncle was a world champion show dog. He estimates the lost breeding fees alone will total tens of thousands of dollars.


We hope that both Pulaski County and North Little Rock Animal Services pays (money and job sanctions) for their colossal screw up.

Lunon might be able to get criminal charges filed using Arkansas Code Annotated § 5-36-105:




Both Pulaski County and North Little Rock Animal Services refused to comment.



Stay tuned for updates.

ASP Trooper Jacob Haynie caught on his own mobile video recordings using the N-word

On November 21, 2023, after one of those questionable PIT maneuvers (the ASP now calls  Precision Immobilization Technique , or PIT maneuvers, Tactical Vehicle Intervention or TVI) ASP rookie trooper and former Hope Arkansas cop Jacob Haynie was caught on his and other ASP mobile video recordings using profanity and the N-word.   ASP policy prohibits the behavior and words Trooper Haynie uttered. That same policy also prohibits actions and behaviors that reflect unfavorably on the ASP. Haynie's wife works at the Hempstead County Assessors office. Wonder if she uses that language at work too?  ### The full videos can be viewed on many of the YouTube Channels that feature ASP videos.  A follower of one channel identifies Haynie as the one uttering the words. Apparently that individual knows Haynie and might have worked with him at Hope PD. ASP claims no one said the words "climb" or "N***a" and the trooper using the fowl language was actually Tyler Gentry. Ri

Three LRPD cops "relieved of duty" over incident at Club Trois

Sources at LRPD have confirmed a tip we received that three LRPD cops, Brad Stewart, Lee Pitts and Justin Sims have been "relieved of duty" in connection with an incident at Club Trois. The story we were told is that Stewart was working off-duty at Club Trois and dealt with an inebriated female club patron by soaking her with pepper spray.  LRPD General Order  ("G.O.") 303 requires that a cop that uses physical force, non-lethal control and compliance devices, on or off-duty, follow certain procedures. Use of pepper spray is a Level 4 event. Here are the specific procedures. LRPD sources tell us that they are trained to call MEMS after they use pepper spray or a taser on an individual. They are to file an incident report and they file an officer's report or letter form (5600-2) with their immediate supervisor for each use of force incident. Here's an example of an officer letter form.   Not a single procedure was followed in this incident. And to make matter
