Former Police Officer Gets 1 Year For Killing Puppy


Rockville, Maryland - A former Baltimore police officer who admitted to killing his girlfriend's puppy was sentenced to one year in jail Wednesday in Montgomery County Circuit Court.

Alec Eugene Taylor of Silver Spring, Md. pleaded guilty to aggravated animal cruelty in August after being charged with beating and choking his girlfriend's puppy and texting her a photo of the dog's body.

His girlfriend reported that he had killed Rocko, a 7-month-old Jack Russell Terrier, on Feb. 26.

Taylor was facing up to three years in jail and a $5,000 fine.
