(WJLA) - A Baltimore city police officer, assigned to the 8th District, is on unpaid suspension amidst allegations he beat and strangled his seven-month-old puppy to death.

On Feb. 26, Alec Taylor, 27, a five-year veteran of the Baltimore Police Department, returned to his apartment along the 13000 block of Castle Boulevard in Silver Spring. Upon entering the unit, Taylor noticed his Jack Russell Terrier, named Rocko, had defecated on the carpet. According to police, Taylor became enraged, beating the untrained dog with a mop, then using his bare hands to suffocate the puppy.

"Using that mop and using his hands to choke that dog until it was obviously dead, I don't think that dog stood a chance," Montgomery County Police Department Officer Rebecca Innocenti said.

According to charging documents, Taylor sent a photo text message of Rocko's "lifeless" body to his girlfriend. The off-duty patrolman then reportedly placed the deceased dog in a nearby garbage dumpster.

Taylor's girlfriend, who was too distraught to speak publicly, asked her boyfriend to retrieve Rocko's body. Around 6:30 that evening, she returned home to find the dog's body in a shoebox on the balcony of their apartment. In tears, the woman drove to a park in nearby Hyattsville where she gave the puppy a proper burial.

"Wow! Police officers don't do such things," neighbor Dylan Brown remarked. "They are the ones supposed to be solving the crimes, not committing them."

On Feb. 28, Taylor's girlfriend reported the crime to police. Montgomery County Animal Service officers located and recovered Rocko's body from the park. Necropsy results determined the dog's cause of death was "acute hemorrhagic shock," likely due to blood loss from liver damage caused by blunt force trauma.

That is just sick. If he treated his own "family" (I'm a doglover) like this it makes you wonder how he treated "criminals" he encountered while on patrol.

We just don't understand the stress they are under and what they have to live with day to day.

The girlfriend needs to get out. He'll be after her next, if he isn't already.

If he did that to a dog, what has he done to the citizens he has interacted with?

Though he's not the focus in this case, Dylan Brown will hopefully learn from this educate himself to the truth.

On the case itself, it's typical behavior for cops to treat all dogs like pieces of shit.
