Animal Shelter Breakin -- HSUS offering $2500 reward for information |
|
http://www.hsus.org/press_and_publications/press_releases/reward_offered_in_springdale_kitten_killings_091208.htmlReward Offered In Springdale Animal Shelter Kitten Killings September 12, 2008
The Humane Society of the United States and the Humane Society of the Ozarks are offering a reward up to $2,500 for information leading to the identification, arrest and conviction of the person or people responsible for breaking into the Springdale Animal Services shelter and brutally killing 10 kittens.
The Case:
News reports give the following account: Ten kittens housed at Springdale Animal Services were found dead Thursday after the shelter’s staff reported an overnight break-in at the 321 Randall Wobbe Road facility. Someone had climbed through the window to the shelter’s cat room and released all of the kittens from their cages. Four kittens were found dead inside the shelter. Six more kittens were later found dead at a parking lot at 675 E. Joyce Blvd. in Fayetteville. All of the dead kittens were found with crushed skulls. Five of the dead kittens were only four weeks old and were taken from their nursing mother by the perpetrator(s). Some cats and kittens removed from their cages were placed in cages with dogs. None of those cats were harmed.

These things hit me at a very visceral level. And make me want to hit the perpetrators back!!

4. Sorry, friend of mine just told me about it, looked it up and had to share. |
|
There are no words.
There are only actions.
Like crushing the skulls of the insane freaks who committed this atrocity.

8. Ditto. I'd have thought it was physically impossible for me to be this angry at three in the morning |
|
...until reading this. :puke: :mad:
I'm going to bed. If I do it now, maybe I won't spend the whole night seething.
We need to pass some really draconian laws to with people who torture animals (this goes way beyond "abuse"), or this shit will just keep happening.

Of a human incarnation. I can't imagine who would do such a horrible thing.
What does it say that the dogs were kinder to the cats than the so-called people were?

What's sad is that in Arkansas the worst they will face, if caught, is less than a year in jail for a misdemeanor charge of "animal cruelty".
Arkansas doesn't have a felony charge for this kind of thing.
What's sad is that they would probably get a higher charge for the breaking and entering than they will for killing 10 kittens.

12. One of the "predictors" of |
|
violent sociopathic behavior against other people in later life is killing/torturing animals in young people (usually boys). Other two are setting fires, bed wetting. Usually you get several or all three together -indicators of trouble ahead, as in Ted Bundy, etc.
