The disorderly conduct charge Minneapolis police issued to Jeremy Meyer after his dog, Charger, was shot 4 times last August by one of its officers was dropped yesterday. Hennepin County public defender, Barbara Isaacman represented Jeremy. At Jeremy's first court appearance, Ms. Isaacman requested production of a complaint. At yesterday's appearance, Ms. Isaacman was given written statements of two individuals present at the 8/13/01 incident which contradicted the police account that Jeremy was the one yelling into the microphone. After she spoke with the prosecutors, the charges were dismissed.
The Meyers are still awaiting resolution of the issue of whether the City will reimburse them for Charger's medical expenses.
