1. Cops shooting dogs
2. Pit bulls attacking people or other dogs
3. Teachers having sex with students

P.S. The first time I ever heard of a cop shooting a dog was on the OT. I thought it was a one off, but sadly it seems to be a very common occurance these days.

Probably pit bulls. The other 2 probably make the news at a higher rate. But I've seen 2 different pit bull attacks personally, and neither made the news. The teacher/student sex I have first hand knowledge of in my high school made the news, and if a cop shot my dog I would certainly take it to the media.

Way more pit bulls than ever before, so #2. That said, I do think the militarization of police has led to more dog shootings (along with lack of common sense). I'm guessing that in prior decades, police would simply go, "oh look, a black lab with an LSU collar, it probably isn't going to rip my throat out despite the aggressive barking."

I think student-teacher sex is just reported more frequently.

Media and social media reporting patterns can influence your perception of the frequencies of these occurrences. Happens with all crimes.

ETA: This is not a commentary on the actually frequency of these events. I have no clue if they are higher or lower. A study would have to be conducted to have an accurate picture.

Technology making worldwide news readily available is causing to hear about more of them too.
