Target: District Attorney Mark E. Davidson, McNairy County, Tennessee
Goal: Ensure appropriate punishment for the former sheriff’s deputy who allegedly shot and killed seven dogs during an unwarranted animal welfare check.
In what appears to be a shocking and egregious case of animal cruelty, a former sheriff’s deputy in Tennessee reportedly shot and killed seven dogs while responding to a call regarding alleged malnourished animals. Connor Brackin, who had only been on the job for less than a month, arrived at the residence in Bethel Springs to conduct a welfare check while the dogs’ guardians were out to dinner. Upon his arrival, Brackin allegedly opened fire with a rifle, resulting in the tragic deaths of the dogs, leaving their owners devastated and in disbelief upon their return home. This incident raises serious concerns about the actions taken by law enforcement officials in response to unfounded reports.
The owners of the dogs, Kevin Dismuke and his wife, reportedly discovered three of their beloved pets dead inside their home and four more outside. Dismuke expressed his utter shock and confusion, questioning the rationale behind Brackin’s actions, stating, “I don’t know where they come up with the idea that they were malnourished or abandoned.” Reports indicate that a call was made to law enforcement regarding the condition of the dogs at an abandoned home, which appears to have been unfounded. Such reckless disregard for life, particularly that of defenseless animals, cannot go unaddressed.
Demanding accountability and justice for such an alleged heinous act is essential to ensure that similar incidents do not occur in the future. The laws against animal cruelty exist to protect the vulnerable and maintain ethical standards amongst those tasked with enforcing the law. Therefore, it is imperative that the District Attorney’s office pursues the most stringent penalties against Connor Brackin, who faces charges of seven counts of aggravated cruelty to animals and eight counts of reckless endangerment.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear District Attorney Davidson,
The terrible events that transpired in Bethel Springs demand immediate and serious attention to achieve justice for the seven dogs reportedly shot and killed by a former sheriff’s deputy, Connor Brackin, during an animal welfare check. This incident, which appears to lack justifiable cause, raises alarm about the conduct of law enforcement officers. Disturbingly, the owners arrived home to find three dogs dead inside and four more outside, leading to unanswered questions and unimaginable grief.
It has been reported that Brackin acted on a call concerning possibly malnourished dogs at an abandoned property. Yet, the owners vehemently contest this characterization, expressing disbelief that it could warrant such extreme action. The reported use of a rifle against these defenseless creatures incites outrage and highlights the urgent need for accountability. Brackin is now facing multiple charges related to cruelty and reckless endangerment; however, it remains crucial to ensure that he receives the appropriate legal consequences for this alleged act of violence against animals.
We respectfully urge your office to pursue the most severe penalties available under the law for Connor Brackin. This case is not only about seeking justice for the seven dogs but also about establishing a stern precedent regarding the treatment of animals and the responsibility of those in positions of authority. Please take swift and decisive action regarding this alleged crime against innocent lives.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]
Guy is an arse wipe.
This is dispicable
Law enforcement is NOT ABOVE the law! Throw this callous dirtbag in quicksand!
The law never cares about animals. Abuser continue to abuse and kill. KARMA TO ALL OF THEM.
He belongs behind bars. Eye for an eye!!!!
Wtf!!!! If it was a welfare check and he thought the dogs were malnourished….then wtf did he shoot them!!for???? Wow Tennessee must hire mentally incompetent people! What a svum. He should be fired and held accountable…thrown in jail, fined up the asshole!!
This asshole should meet the same fate as those poor, innocent dogs.
He needs to be executed
I would like to know the piece of s*** that called up you said they were being treated unfairly and no nutrition
So this is the way this ” ex- deputy” is dealing with animals, who does he think he is to decide to murder them ?. He must be held accountable to the fullest extent of the law, never be a cop again and certainly not carry a gun any more. Mandatory psychiatric care should be requested.
You sent an inexperienced ‘officer’ on a welfare check of the dogs? Were they aggressive? Then you keep your stupid butt in the car. Call the people. Not home? Come back when they are home! No Mister “I’ve got a badge and gun”, grabs a rifle and Kills the dogs HE WAS SUPPOSEDLY checking on. QUESTION…How do you think their ‘wellness’ is now? You need to be fired, and sued for dereliction of duty, destruction of property, trespassing.. By the time my lawyer got through with you, you’ll be cleaning latrines in a local prison!! Where you need to be!!
He was a gypsy cop fired from another police dept!

Fuking POS for law enforcement.
I would sue the fuk out of him.
Hire a fuking hitman afterwards at sometime. I feel really sorry for the owners for seeing this to there beloved pets. OMFG.
I found a news video where this cop was fired from another police dept after he shot and killed someone. He was a gypsy cop, going from one police dept to another. He had a history of shooting his gun and yet was hired by another police dept.

So if this officer is sent in future to do a welfare check on children left alone in a house, will he shoot them first and ask questions later? God help us all.
So they shoot first then ask questions in Tennessee. Avoid going there. What a trigger happy prat he is
This better not be swept under the rug! Those 7 dogs were defenseless against a crazy man with a rifle. We demand justice for the dogs and their owners.
Why don’t these types turn gun on themselves
Asshole you don’t shoot animals on a welfare check! YOU RESCUE if they need rescuing!!!! You don’t deserve to live. Hope from here on life if an agonizing bitch!!
District Attorney Mark E. Davidson, McNairy County, Tennessee Punishment must match the crimes committed!!!
Otherwise you are as guilty and you have a loose cannon in your midst!!
Strip this evil monster of his job and incarcerate him for First Degree Felonies 7 counts.
I hope some animal lover with a rifle will give a visit to his home and return the favour!
Poor sweet angels …hope you are now feeling joy in heaven…
Connor Brackin is a POS IDIOT SCUMBAG that just wanted target practice on innocent animals. Put this LOSER POS behind bars!
That gun happy idiot needs to be brought up on serious charges for the senseless killing of all those innocent animals.
