A former police officer whose canine partner died after being left in a patrol vehicle for three days should be charged with a felony, the Georgia Humane Society said Friday.

The dog, Sasha, was found dead Sept. 3 inside the Chevrolet Tahoe belonging to her handler, Lt. T.J. Frye of the Warwick Police Department in South Georgia, according to a Warwick police report. Frye returned home from a three-day trip to find the animal inside the vehicle. He later buried Sasha in his own yard.

Inside the vehicle were horrific signs that the dog tried to escape, including ripped seat belts, bite marks in the leather seats, scratches on the windows, and broken rear-view mirror, the police report said.

The chief of the police department didn’t file a report on the dog’s death until Sept. 14, following questions from local media outlets, according to the man who gave the narcotics dog to the city, free of charge.

“Lt. Frye stated that Sasha must have let herself inside the vehicle over the weekend while he was out of town,” the Warwick police report states.
