Author Topic: Animal cruelty Kyle Watkins Expert Film Handler Posts: 185 From: Stuart, FL, USA Registered: Sep 2001 posted 11-07-2003 11:11 PM                     Ok for the last couple of mounths there have been some of this. Which brings me to........Does any one know what kind of laws that puts these peole behind bars, i dont know the laws of this. But what I can say, what ever they are. They are NOT stiff enough. All news are from. www.wpecnews12.com A Doggoon shame ARMED WITH A SEARCH WARRANT.. ANIMAL CONTROL OFFICERS AND DEPUTIES MOVED IN ON A HOME IN LOXAHATCHEE. THE OFFICERS SEIZED DOZENS OF ANIMALS.. THEY SAY WERE BEING KEPT IN FILTHY.. INHUMANE CONDITIONS. AT PALM BEACH COUNTY ANIMAL CONTROL.. SOME 60 ANIMALS ARE BEING HELD.. THAT WERE SEIZED IN LOXAHATCHEE.. ARE BEING KEPT RIGHT NOW.. THE ANIMALS' OWNERS POTENTIALLY FACING CRUELTY CHARGES. "The smell was absolutely horrible." ANIMAL CONTROL DIRECTOR DIANNE SAUVE SHOWED US PICTURES.. AND VIDEO OF THE FILTHY CONDITIONS SHE SAYS OFFICERS ENCOUNTERED SERVING A SEARCH WARRANT AT THE HOME OF MERYL ANDERSON AND HER HUSBAND CHARLES. "Feces-filled cages, cages with urine and build up of hair." OFFICERS SEIZED 27 DOGS.. MORE THAN A DOZEN BIRDS.. AND OTHER ANIMALS. THEY ALSO FOUND SIX FROZEN ANIMALS IN A FREEZER.. WHICH ANIMAL CONTROL SAYS IS NOT UNCOMMON IN CASES LIKE THESE. INVESTIGATORS DO NOT BELIEVE THE ANDERSON'S WERE BREEDING THE ANIMALS.. THESE WERE SIMPLY THEIR PETS. "Whether people do this intentionally or not, this is neglect." AT THE PROPERTY.. CHARLES ANDERSON TOLD US HE WOULD NOT GO ON CAMERA UNTIL HE TALKED TO HIS LAWYER.. BUT HE CLAIMS ANIMAL CONTROL IS WRONG. I ASKED HIM ABOUT THE ANIMALS WE SAW.. AND PICTURES AND VIDEO. HE SAYS THE ANIMALS WERE WELL FED AND IN GOOD HEALTH. OFFICERS DID NOT TAKE FOUR OF THE ANDERSONS' DOGS.. WHICH WERE IN GOOD SHAPE. ANIMAL CONTROL HERE SAYS IT WILL GO TO COURT SOON TO TRY AND GET CUSTODY OF THESE ANIMALS THAT THEY SEIZED IN LOXAHATCHEE. IF THEY'RE SUCCESSFUL IN GETTING CUSTODY.. ANIMAL CONTROL SAYS IT WILL FILE CHARGES AGAINST THE ANIMALS' OWNERS. November 7, 2003 - 10:35PM Kitten Abuse A SHOCKING CASE OF ANIMAL CRUELTY. COPS SAY A 16-YEAR-OLD BOY SKINNED ONE KITTEN..

AND ABUSED AND KILLED THEM.. IN FRONT OF HIS 7-YEAR-OLD BROTHER. POLICE BELIEVE TURNER DUMPED TWO OF THE KITTENS IN THE WOODS.. THE OTHER WAS RESCUED BY TURNER'S SISTER.. WHO BROUGHT IT TO THE HUMANE SOCIETY. IT HAD A BROKEN HIP AND BACK AND A SEVERED TAIL. THAT KITTEN HAD TO BE PUT DOWN. TURNER WAS ARRESTED AND CHARGED WITH THREE COUNTS OF ANIMAL CRUELTY.

And they even said that it was common in cases like this.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 11-08-2003 10:19 PM                     I agree with Brad on this one for sure.

You'll see 1 or 2 of those stories a month. Hell, in the SF Bay area a woman owned a house whose occupants were all cats. For truly cruel behaviour you have to go to Nova Scotia. Last summer 2 teenage boys grabbed Joey the cat and hanged him from a tree in the woods near Halifax. A 13-year-old boy nearby cut down the noose, gave Joey mouth-to-mouth resuscitation . . . and Joey meowed. One of the perps copped a plea and turned state's evidence. The other perp was convicted last month. Joey was nursed back to health and has been adopted in a loving home. As for the perps? One mom told the local press that she got more grief for her son hanging a cat than for causing a train derailment.  |  IP: Logged Scott Norwood Film God Posts: 8146 From: Boston, MA.
