Ohio officer fired after body cam video shows him release K9 onto Black man with his hands up
"An Ohio officer who earlier this month was captured on body camera footage releasing a K-9 police dog onto a suspect who had his hands up has been fired, officials said Wednesday.
Ryan Speakman, an officer for the Circleville Police Department, has been terminated, effective immediately, the department said in a statement.
"Speakman's actions during the review of his canine apprehension of suspect Jadarrius Rose on July 4 show that Officer Speakman did not meet the standards and expectations we hold for our police officers," the department said.
The Ohio Patrolmen's Benevolent Association said it filed a grievance on Speakman's behalf Tuesday seeking his reinstatement with back pay and restoration of any lost seniority. The grievance asserted he was fired "without just cause.""
