Prosecutors argued the 2020 attack on an arrestee was not only “unreasonable,” but also “entirely unnecessary.”
Salt Lake City K-9 officer Nickolas Pearce, left, watches body camera video from a 2020 arrest with his criminal defense attorney Nathan Evershed during Pearce's preliminary hearing before 3rd District Court Judge William K. Kendall on Tuesday, July 26, 2022. On Thursday, Dec. 15, 2022, a judge ruled there was sufficient evidence to send Pearce to trial for an aggravated assault charge stemming from the arrest.
According to court documents, police were dispatched to a home in Salt Lake City after Ryans’ got into an argument with his wife. Ryans was also in violation of an active protection order by being at the residence, the documents state.Body camera footage shows that just a few seconds passed between the moment officers meet Ryans in the home’s backyard, the moment they command him to get on the ground, and the moment Pearce commands his K-9 to attack.
The policy also states that officers officer must refrain from “applying the unnecessary infliction of pain or suffering and may never engage in cruel, degrading or inhuman treatment of any person.”
