Horrible Animal Cruelty Issues
Dear Animal Advocate,

out to you, but we need your help with two recent animal cruelty cases..
While we normally try to space out our communication with you
so that you don’t feel bombarded, these two cases just couldn’t wait. We
need your letters, faxes and phonecalls now!

Three Boys Accused of Tying a Dog to a Tree, Beating
and Stabbing Her to Death (Presque Isle, ME)
Three teens who allegedly wanted to kill something
“not human” are being held at a state youth center and under house arrest
after they allegedly cut, stabbed and beat to death a dog that they stole
from the yard of a local resident.
The three Presque Isle boys, ages 17, 17 and 16, were
arrested in early June for aggravated animal cruelty and theft. Two of the
teens were on juvenile probation from the Mountain View Juvenile Correction
Facility in Charleston for prior felony crimes.
The 4-year-old female mixed breed dog was trusting of
humans and offered no resistance, even during the ensuing assault, the
detective said. The teens allegedly tied the dog’s head close to a fallen
tree and took turns impaling the animal.
The executed animal was left in the bike path area
across from Presque Isle High School and Zippel Elementary School at a
place where adolescents hang out before school. Police believe the dead
animal was placed there purposely so students would see it in the morning
before school.
While any act of animal cruelty is disturbing, acts
involving young adults are particularly alarming. This case in particular
is especially troubling considering the history of felonious crime seen in
two of the three teens. (Click here to read the full case)
Please take a moment to contact the prosecutor in this
case to urge vigorous prosecution and mandatory counseling for these boys
if they are convicted. Click on the “Take Action Now!” link to go to our
webfax form, which will allow you to send the prosecutor a fax right from

Dog Hanged, Stabbed in the Neck During Domestic
dispute (Mesa, AZ)
A 23-year-old Mesa man upset with his wife reportedly
tried to kill her dog by stabbing and hanging the animal six feet in the
air with an electric cord, barbell and weights.
Salvador Rodriguez was arrested June 6 on suspicion of
a felony charge of animal cruelty and criminal damage.
Rodriguez told police he tried to kill the dog with an
eight-inch butcher knife after he found an e-mail from his wife to another
man and found a photo of her with the man.
Pet-Abuse.Com is urging all concerned citizens to send
a letter or email to the prosecutor in this case, asking for swift and
vigourous prosecution.

A Note About Emails
As we mentioned previously, it is highly unusual for
us to contact you twice within the same week, however action alerts are
sent out based on the current cases we’re working on, so there may be times
when we ask for your help several times within a short period. This is the
exception, not the rule.
Please use the power of your voice and your words to
speak out against these atrocities – and encourage others to do the same.
If you have no done so already, please take a moment
to update your preferences using the “Update Profile/Email Address” link at
the bottom of this email to update your personal information. If you no
longer wish to receive action alert emails, you may unsubscribe from the
action alerts list but choose to continue to receive our regular
newsletter. (In general, Action Alerts will be sent out approximately 2-3
times a month.)
Thank you for your ongoing support – without you, the
work we do would not be possible. As always, please feel free to crosspost
this newsletter and forward it on to other animal advocates that may be
interested.
Best Wishes,
Alison L. Gianotto
