What in the world is a "pre-emptive bankruptcy"?
"I think we're going to do something stupid that will cost us millions of dollars, so could we just go ahead and declare bankruptcy now to beat the rush?"

Yes, you have the general idea. I coined the term myself, but I think it sufficiently describes what the City of Cookeville will be doing to avoid paying a multi-million dollar judgement to the Smoaks. So let's re-cap: A Cookeville police officer terrorized a family on vacation, and there is no way the city can win a civil court case, yet, the officer did nothing wrong because he felt he was in danger. Yes, that sounds about right. Now, does everyone follow?

Yawn. This is
such a non-suprise.
Anyone who think's a cop is going to be punished for killing a peasant's dog, even if caught on film doing so, is out of their freaking mind.
Those people who were terrorized by the local gestapo are lucky their dog wasn't the only thing shot.

Any time you give a badge and a gun to a power-mad, blood-lusting moron, these things are bound to happen. That City Hall has decided not to punish one of their crackers is par for the course.
You are right... we haven't heard the last of Office Hall. I'll give odds that next time, it won't be a dog. ;-/
