The trip ended with a police dog’s powerful jaws clamping down on Rose even as he tried to surrender. As he stood with his hands up beside the highway on July 4, at least six law enforcement officers surrounded him at a distance, one calling forcefully to the K-9 handler: “Do not release the dog," highway patrol video shows.Nevertheless, a Belgian Malinois is seen on the video either breaking free or being set loose. At first, the animal seems confused, racing past Rose toward officers at the far end of the truck, then turning back and running for Rose, then 23.By then the trucker is on his knees, hands still high, as an officer shouts, “Get the dog off of him!”That day, Rose joined a long list of Black Americans attacked by police dogs, a history well documented by journalists, academics and filmmakers. Investigations into such cases have been launched regularly in recent years. For some, the scenes harken back to the Civil Rights Movement, when authorities often turned dogs and firehoses on peaceful Black protesters marching for equality. The Associated Press captured one such attack in a photograph from Birmingham, Alabama, taken in the spring of 1963. It shows two police officers setting a pair of K-9s on 15-year-old Walter Gadsden. One of the dogs lunges straight for the teenager’s belly as the other strains against his leash, panting. Over the past five years, controversial police K-9 attacks have made headlines across the U.S.Records reviewed by the AP in 2018 showed the Ohio State Highway Patrol used drug dogs in 28% of its stops involving Black motorists from 2013 through 2017, although the Black population accounts for only about 11.5% of people old enough to have a driver’s permit or license in the state. The Salt Lake City police department suspended its dog apprehension program in 2020 after a Black man was bitten and an audit found 27 dog bite cases during the previous two years.The FBI opened an investigation into the police department in Woodson Terrace, Missouri, in 2021 after cellphone video showed three officers allowing a dog to repeatedly bite a Black man. And in 2020, a Black man in Lafayette, Indiana, was placed in a medically induced coma after police dogs mauled him as he was arrested in a battery case. Circleville, located about 25 miles (40 km) south of Columbus, Ohio, resembles many rural towns across the country. The city's downtown is filled with restaurants, law offices and a bakery. Flags honoring fallen servicemen and women hang from lampposts lining Main Street. While the picture may be idyllic to some of the town’s 14,000 residents, the Rev. Derrick Holmes, longtime leader of the Second Baptist Church, said Black and white residents describe their lives very differently.“Everyone doesn’t have the same experience, even though they’re all in the same town,” Holmes said. “And I think those divisions exist around the realities of bigotry, the realities of racism.”At church services the day after the video of Rose’s arrest aired, Holmes said the congregation was appalled, but not entirely surprised.“People were horrified by it,” he said. “Angered by it. Frustrated by it. And also there was a feeling of, ‘Well, here we go again.’”This isn’t the first time Circleville police have grappled with uncomfortable questions about how they train and use police dogs. Nearly 20 years ago, a founder of the K-9 unit sued the department after he was fired for insubordination. Officer David Haynes had publicly opposed cutting training hours for dogs and their handlers to 172 hours annually from 500 hours, according to court documents. Haynes warned in a 2003 memo that “words like ‘deliberate indifference,’ ‘negligence’ and ‘failure to train’ will someday be brought up.”Today, Circleville’s K-9s train 16 hours per month, or 192 hours a year, according to the department. Police Chief Shawn Baer did not respond to numerous messages seeking comment.Employing dogs to dominate a population can be traced back at least to European settlers colonizing the Americas, when the animals were used against Indigenous people. They were introduced in Southern U.S. states to capture — and sometimes kill — enslaved Black people who escaped, said Madalyn Wasilczuk, a University of South Carolina professor and author of a law journal article titled, “ The Racialized Violence of Police Canine Force.”Wasilczuk found data on K-9 police attacks sparse, but said the animals are often used in nonviolent situations and their presence can lead to serious injury. “When you talk about an apprehension, police talk about bite and hold, and that sounds very antiseptic,” Wasilczuk said. “But when you look at a video of what happens, you see a dog doing what it does with a chew toy, which is it grabs on, it tries to hold on, its head whips back and forth and its teeth are sunk into that body part as deeply as they can.”In Rose’s case, law enforcement originally sought to pull him over because of his truck’s missing mudflap, according to a highway patrol report. Circleville Police were there to assist. What happened next can be pieced together from law enforcement video and the incident report.Rose initially didn't stop as police pursued him. When he did, he saw officers with their guns drawn and took off again. At some point, he called 911 and told a dispatcher he feared the officers were “trying to kill” him. After pulling over a second time, he delayed getting out of the truck and did not immediately get on the ground as instructed.He initially was charged with a felony for failing to comply with officers, but prosecutors dropped the case. Online court documents show Rose was charged Sept. 26 with a misdemeanor version of the offense and there is an active warrant for his arrest. Neither Rose nor his attorney responded to repeated messages seeking comment.It’s not clear why a K-9 unit was at the scene that day. Michael Gould, a former New York City police officer and founding member of the NYPD’s K-9 unit, said officers appeared to have control once they surrounded Rose with their guns drawn. And then there’s the image of Rose with his hands up.“He was compliant and not a threat to anyone,” Gould said. Rose required hospital care for the bites he suffered. Whether he sustained lasting injury is unclear. The dog’s police handler, Officer Ryan Speakman, was fired, but the Ohio Patrolman’s Benevolent Association filed a grievance on his behalf arguing the officer was fired without just cause. Circleville City Councilwoman Caryn Koch-Esterline said police have yet to account for what happened.“I’m just waiting for all the information to come out,” she said in a brief interview with the AP three months after Rose’s arrest.For those working to improve race relations in Ohio, the roadside attack was a reminder of all that is still left to do.“If it were a white man and a dog was unleashed on that individual, what would that community be saying? I bet they would be up in arms,” said Nana Jones, president of the Columbus Chapter of the NAACP.___Associated Press writers Rhonda Shafner and Aaron Morrison in New York, Mike Schneider in Orlando, Florida, and Samantha Hendrickson in Columbus, Ohio, contributed to this report.。
B | NZFC首席执行官Annie Murray表示，这部尚未命名的纪录片电影既没有得到Ardern的授权，也没有得到她的认可，但已经获得了“大量外国投资和国际兴趣”。 该片由知名的纪录片制片人Pietra Brettkelly和Justin Pemberton制作，并由Emma Slade领导的 Firefly Studios 制作。 预计这部电影今年晚些时候开始拍摄，可能于2025年8月上映。
C | Murray说，为了扶持该电影，电影委员会已于上个月批准了80万纽币的扶持。 “NZFC工作人员提供建议，NZFC董事会批准了这一级别的资金，”她说。 Murray还表示，新西兰电影委员会主席 Alastair Carruthers（下图）回避了资助这部电影的决定，他本人与Ardern相熟，并参加了她去年的婚礼。 一些资深业内人士想知道，该电影项目是否更适合小屏幕，而不是作为一部具有更高制作成本和商业风险的故事片。 Murray但对这部筹备了数年的电影很有信心，认为它会取得成功。 “票房是衡量成功的重要标准之一，但国际销量和电影节的成功也很重要。这部电影的销售预期很强劲，第三方投资的水平就证明了这一点。” 当被问及这部电影在上映时是否可能已经过时时，Murray说：“重要的是这不是一部传记片。相反，这部纪录片探讨了新西兰暴力极端主义和网络仇恨的兴起，以Ardern的领导轨迹为例，展示这些力量如何在现代历史上最动荡的时期之一发挥作用。这部电影记录了新西兰的一段历史。” 她说Ardern没有参与这部电影的编辑工作。 Murray认为，“Pietra Brettkelly 和 Justin Pemberton 是新西兰最有经验的纪录片制作人之一，该项目已列入 NZFC 的名单，并于 2023 年 5 月在戛纳电影节上向潜在的国际合作伙伴展示（该电影在宣传册中命名《Jacindamania》）。 NZFC准备调整21人 NZFC是一家公共机构，负责投资和推广新西兰故事片、短片和电影制作人，并宣传新西兰作为电影拍摄地。 NZFC 预计本财年将从多个来源获得 3020 万纽币的资金，包括彩票补助委员会（2150 万）、文化和遗产部（540 万）以及商业、创新和就业发展部（130 万）。 根据NZFC最新的年度报告，NZFC 拥有 53 名员工，年度人工成本为648万纽币，高级团队薪酬总计223万。 据了解，NZFC正在进行机构重组，多达21名员工可能会受到影响。 相关阅读： Jacinda Ardern透露婚礼举办地：就在北岛这座浪漫城市 Jacinda Ardern透露大婚日已定 自嘲称“不适合开婚前派对” 总理正式订婚！喜获男友祖传钻戒 注：本文为编译/原创，欢迎转发分享；但严禁复制等未经授权的非法使用。违反上述声明者，本网将追究其相关法律责任。使用授权请联系[email protected]。 chineseherald.co.nz All Rights Reserved 版权所有 相关内容 驻新西兰使领馆提醒中国公民：谨防这类诈骗！ 创纪录！新西兰首次有3名华人议员！史无前例…… 最新民调：总理的支持率暴跌，民众对政府不满意 新西兰人看病难！79%的医生不接受新病人登记 五大健康目标公布，癌症患者31天内做上手术 打击犯罪：奥克兰警方连夜出动，突击检查94个加油站 国家党政府“百日计划”：破旧为主？加急作业？还是尾巴摇狗？ 奥克兰两名司机逃逸后发生事故，一行人受伤，警车被撞。
