Yes, the person should be charged with a crime for what he did, but the dog was just following its training as a police dog. They’re supposed to do what the handler tells them to do. It’s not the dogs fault; it did exactly what it was supposed to do had the situation called for the dog to attack.
Police dogs retire all the time. Assuming this highly trained animal goes to a cartaker who doesn’t know or issue the commands, that dog is harmless as any other, arguably more so

The dog attacked an unarmed person randomly
Yes.
No, it was far from random. The dog was ordered to attack an unarmed person.
Then I suppose the trainer is an accomplice in the crime.
What would you do with the dog then? Send it to a farm? It’s trained to attack humans. We don’t let a dog like that live in the city.

It sounds like you just have a problem with concept of police dogs in general. That’s fine, but it’s a separate discussion.
