The dog was named Shiver, and animal volunteers said it could happen to any dog left outside in the cold without shelter.’

‘No one disputes that an on-duty Irvine police officer got an erection and ejaculated on a motorist during an early-morning traffic stop in Laguna Beach. The female driver reported it, DNA testing confirmed it and officer David Alex Park finally admitted it.

“She got what she wanted,” said Stokke. “She’s an overtly sexual person.”’
