Fla. Pastor Accused Of Throwing Puppies From Pickup Truck
Fla. Pastor Accused Of Throwing Puppies From Pickup Truck

POSTED: 6:09 am EST February 7, 2006
UPDATED: 6:14 am EST February 7, 2006

A Springfield pastor was arrested and charged with animal cruelty after a witness told police he saw the pastor throwing puppies from a pickup truck, according to a report.


Robert Tiencken said he saw Vincent Kohn, pastor of The Anointed Church of God, throwing several puppies into the woods and leaving them to die, WJXT-TV reported.


"He was actually throwing them, not setting them down, but throwing them as far as the trees. Just chucking them," Tiencken said. "He said, 'I told my wife. You don't have to call the police. You don't have to call them.'"

Tiencken called the police anyway.

11. I forget the Psalm number
"Blessed is he that dashes thy little ones against the rocks".

They were little puppies after all.

17. I thought that verse specified...
..."Babylonian" babies. Ah, the tranquility of the Bible...

You've piqued my curiosity, I'm going to have to look that up now.

16. Seeing the pastor riding off in the sunset with you wife is kind of
Edited on Tue Feb-07-06 04:29 PM by Hubert Flottz
hard to take too!

The preacher never did steal my wife, but one did that to a friend of mine. One did steal my car battery once though.

I've seen the preacher who hitched me and my wife up, dog drunk, since we got married. My wife isn't sure if we're married or not, to this day! I call him my loophole preacher. He's the one who stole my battery too. The night I saw my rev. in the bar drunk, he got in a fight and got thrown out along with his drunken daughter.

Stuff like this is too good to make up, if I'm lyin' I'm dyin'!

13. Moral leadership at its worst. OK to act evil as long as noone finds out.

19. Oh how sad :(
I believe Florida has animal cruelty laws on the books which would make this a felony not a slap on the wrist. He better lawyer up. However, for this couple to have contacted the media, it's usually a last resort when the local animal protection authorities "choose not to get involved".

Remember that DUers, whenever any local official doesn't respond to your concerns satisfactorily. That's why God made 24 Hour News Channels. This isn't about religion, just one fu*ked up human, like wife beaters and pedophiles.

we should round up agribusiness executives for the way animals are treated in factory farm operations.

26. What makes you think that it would stick out far enough?
Animal abusers are largely cockless morons deserving of little more than a good, swift kick in the nads before being ushered off to jail.

I do appreciate the sentiment though. It did make me cringe, being a dick owner/operator, though.
