A South African policeman who set dogs on black men was sentenced to 5 years in prison, and three others received 4-year sentences for the same videotaped attack. [...] They told the Pretoria High Court that such attacks were standard practice in police-dog "training sessions."
THIS is STANDARD?
And suddenly South Africa's gruesome crime rate is slightly more understandable. Who's going to call the police if they can avoid it if this is how they TRAIN people?
