A policeman allegedly shot dead his neighbour’s four beloved dogs before dragging their bodies away and buried them in a shallow grave.
Townsville cop Greg Baker, 44, allegedly killed the four pets – Cheeko, Jelly Bean, Nacho and Spud – after they wandered near his property in July, 2020.
Their owners put a desperate plea out for help finding their companions before discovering the heartbreaking alleged truth – saying in a Facebook post they were trying to ‘contain their rage’.

The dogs, a Labrador-cross, two German shepherd-cross and a staghound, were roaming the neighbourhood when they were allegedly killed.
Baker allegedly killed them as they walked through a feedlot, shooting the four adored pets dead with a rifle.
‘I had heard watch your dogs if they get out in parts of Blackriver,’ a Facebook user wrote in response to the story.
‘I’ve heard this too,’ another replied.

The dogs’ owners had initially posted on Facebook requesting help finding Cheeko, Jelly Bean, Nacho and Spud, reading: ‘Missing… very much missed’.
The post was updated hours later after learning Baker allegedly killed them.
Baker, who worked across Townsville from several different stations, has since resigned from Queensland Police.
He will face court at the end of April.
