Duly signed..and heart broken. Whether it is fair or not - I cannot help but wonder what kind of parenting influences children to have such a disreguard for life and suffering. I suppose I don't really have a right to question since I don't have human children - but I cannot help but wonder. After all - I was a child too at one time. There are serial killers who started out this way. Thank you for passing this along - and if you hear anything more about this case, please keep us posted. elizabeth In a message dated 12/16/2006 10:35:01 AM Central Standard Time, [EMAIL PROTECTED] writes:
Please crosspost far and wide as well. thanks, tonya Date: Thu, 14 Dec 2006 03:53:43 -0500 (EST) In case you haven't heard, there is a cruelty case currently going on in Fulton county (Atlanta, GA) for two teenagers that bound a puppy, set it on fire, and when it didn't die, they baked it alive in the oven. This case is not getting much attention from the media here and the public is worried that the teens will not get the deserved punishment. Please sign the petition to support this cause: _www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/428928473_ (http://www.thepetitionsite.com/takeaction/428928473) Below is more information about the case Thank you, Jenny Forwarded message: Hi all, This report came from someone in the animal rescue community. Please be aware that although this news contains graphic information, your support is needed in order to make a difference. John and I are going to court tomorrow. Please go if you can. Here is the forwarded piece from the rescuer: "I confess that I thought the courtroom where 2 teenagers cooked the puppy alive would be fully packed. I was shocked to find only a handful of animal lovers present Monday am. The AJC reporter said not much media attention would be given the case unless people came alive and called the Metro AJC, the TV stations, CNN, 5, 11, and 2. Call these stations and ask them to report on this story. Find the numbers in the book. The suspects were laughing, smirking, and yawning and mouthing obscenities to one of the puppy's supporters. This poor puppy was painted, bound. They then tried to set him on fire (which didn't work), so they took a rack out of the oven so they could fit this poor puppy inside. Scratch marks were found inside the oven from the pup trying to escape the unimaginable torture. NOTHING CAN BE DONE NOW FOR THIS TORUTURED PUPPY...OR CAN IT? IF YOU HAVE EVER DONE ANYTHING THAT HAS MEANT SOMETHING TO YOU, DO THIS. COME TO THE FULTON COUNTY COURTHOUSE ANY DAY THIS WEEK. 136 PRYOR STREET, ATLANTA, GA 30303 85 south to MLK, Exit 248 A and then stay in left turn lane. Take a left on Pryor and park as close as you can. THIS PUPPY'S LIFE IS OVER. THE CASE IS NOT. THE OUTCOME DEPENDS ON YOU. IF YOU CANNOT ATTEND CALL THE MEDIA AND EVERYONE YOU KNOW."
