Target: Randy McGinley, Interim District Attorney for Newton County, GA
Goal: Seek full charges against man allegedly found with multiple malnourished dogs on his property.
Two dozen dogs were discovered living in reportedly deplorable conditions in Georgia. According to authorities, the dogs had little to no access to food or water. Four apparently were not even able to be rehomed because their circumstances left them too aggressive. The owner of the property, Leon Cecil Conley III, claimed he had the dogs for protection. His history seemingly indicates otherwise.
In 2006, Conley was reportedly convicted of several counts of cruelty to animals. Just like in the current case, investigators at the time reported animals who appeared severely neglected. One of the prior charges and apparent convictions also involved dog-fighting. This time, Conley faces 16 counts of animal cruelty. He cannot be allowed to escape serious consequences once again, if he is found guilty.
Sign the petition below to demand the county prosecute this alleged repeat offender to the fullest extent of the law.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Mr. McGinley,
The legal system is supposed to get it right the first time to discourage recidivism. Why, then, is a man with apparently repeated prior convictions for animal cruelty once again in front of the courts looking at 20-plus new charges? Leon Cecil Conley III may be a poster example of the system’s failures.
If the accusations against him are found true, over 20 dogs endured severe starvation and dehydration because of Conley. Some of these animals were reportedly so traumatized by their experiences that they cannot even be adopted. Fifteen years ago, Conley was reportedly convicted of almost the same offense, with dog-fighting charges added at that time. He should have never been allowed near another animal, and his punishment should have more adequately addressed his offenses.
Please do not make the same mistake again. Pursue maximum charges against Mr. Conley and prosecute this case with vigilance.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

All animal abusers globally must have the mandatory death penalty implemented and nothing less.
WHAT KIND OF A JUDGE DICTATED SENTENCE BEFORE? DID HE NOT LIKE DOGS OR CARED FOR THE WAY THEY WERE ABUSED?
COULD SOMEONE EXPLAIN OR COMMENT ON THIS …
If this bastard just gives a damn about the wellbeing of his dogs, why give them back to him? It absolutely makes no sense, does it?
Leon Cecil Conley III is getting rich at the cost of the suffering of the poor dogs –
Mr. McGinley, wouldn’t you think that it’s about time that Conley is jailed and fined for his lack of compassion and greediness?
Thank you for your kind consideration!
This sick freak needs to spend the rest of his worthless life in jail. He should be starved and brutalized just like he did to these dogs! It’s so disgusting to know that abusers get away with the mistreatment of innocent animals. Laws have got to change to make sure abusers are punished harshly and severely.
FUCKING COWARD SHOULD GET RAPED IN PRISON AND THEN BEATEN AND STARVED TO DEATH.
