PETITION TARGET: Nestor Forster, Brazilian Ambassador to the United States
An international dogfighting circuit brutalized innocent dogs, stuffing pepper into their snouts to make them angry and forcing them to rip each other to shreds. The spectators roasted and ate the lifeless dogs that died from fighting.
Photos and video obtained by police showed bloodied, tied-up dogs in horrendous conditions.
“It was absolute horror,” stated Police Commissioner Matheus Laiola. “A dog that had died was being roasted for food, and pepper was inserted into the snout of the animals to make them angry for the fights.”
According to reports, an international dogfighting circuit hosted the dogfights and took online bets from people worldwide. One of the 40 people arrested, a veterinarian treated dogs solely so they could be forced to fight another round.
According to the Vancouver Sun, the people allegedly involved are currently facing charges of criminal association, mistreatment of animals with aggravating death, and gambling. Nearly all of them posted bail.
These barbaric acts of animal cruelty must not be tolerated. Sign this petition urging Brazilian Ambassador Nestor Forster to call for everyone involved to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
Nestor Foster, Brazillan Ambassador to the United States. These people are serial killers in the making. There is true evil in the world and this is proof. Bail should have been set so high none of them could make bail and be released to abuse and offend again. These people are a danger to both animals and humans alike. They must be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. Horrendous barbaric evil doesn’t begin to describe the hiddious acts these people committed. I can’t believe things like this go on in the world today. This is heartbreaking to think what these poor dogs suffered and endured at the hands of human beings. To stuff peppers in their snouts to make them angry to get them to fight to the death. Place bets on these dog fights then roast and eat the poor dead animals. I am outraged. Id like to get my hands on any one or all the 40 people. 5 minutes alone to enact a little justice.
