Police knocked on the wrong door in the middle of the night at the Mississippi home of Ismael Lopez. When he opened the door, his dog ran out. They shot and killed it. He was holding a rifle. They told him to put it down. He turned around to put it down and they shot him in the back of the head and killed him. The officer was not prosecuted. And today a Mississippi jury rejected his wife's civil suit, stating that they did not feel the officer used "excessive force."
