Following an extensive investigation, Butler County police have arrested a man accused of deserting a three-year-old dog in a wire cage, leaving the poor animal to slowly die of starvation.
When a postal worker found the skeletal remains of the Cane Corso puppy in an abandoned motel parking lot in Liberty Township, Ohio, he instantly knew the dog had been severely neglected, leading to the innocent creature’s painful and needless death.
“From looking at the animal, you can literally see every bone in [his] body,” lead dog warden Kurt Merbs told WLWT.
Sheriff Richard K Jones says that a tip has now led to the apprehension of Clarence Thomas Jr., who has been charged with abandoning animals and prohibitions concerning companion animals. The accused is being held in the Butler County Jail.
“We posted this case on social media to get the word out that not only were we looking for the subject responsible for this heinous act,” Jones said in a release, “but to let offenders know, you can run, but you cannot hide.”
The arrest follows a Lady Freethinker petition urging authorities to find the suspect. Huge thanks to all of you who have signed — and thank you, law enforcement, for finding this dog’s killer. Now, we must keep speaking out to ensure this case ends in justice. If you haven’t, please sign to ensure the guilty party is prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, including a life-long ban on having animals.
Also, those who hurt people of all ages as well as animals , birds, creatures of thee seas, lakes, Rivers and so forth will be punished by God as well. When judgement day arrives the whoa to those who these inhumane and barbaric acts of cruelty and injustice. Because there will be justice done in God’s court for sure. Amen and Amen.
Sadistic heartless bastard needs the same done to him!
I checked the inmate roster at the sheriff’s office in Butler, Ohio, and his name was not listed. I guess the bond set for him was very low. How sad that he’s out walking free after torturing his dog to death!
Un seul remède : éliminer ce genre de monstres. Ils sont irrécupérables!
Enough is enough. Laws on animal cruelty must be toughened up. Why should any animal suffer in the wrong hands.
