Target: Newton County, Missouri Prosecutor Will Lynch
Goal: Provide justice for animals that were allegedly found living in filthy conditions without food or water.
Fifty-seven dogs and several cats were rescued after many of them were allegedly found in poor health without access to adequate food and water. It is important that the person allegedly responsible for these crimes receive a harsh sentence and no longer be allowed to have pets to prevent similar future tragedies.
While police have not released the name of the suspect, they did state that some deceased animals were found on the man’s property. Witnesses said that his other dogs had been running around the area, which reportedly led to one of them being hit by a car. According to officers, two of the dogs died shortly after being discovered, even after being provided with proper food and water. Reports state that some of the dogs were living in crates that were filled with waste. A Dachshund and cat were further allegedly crammed inside a crate together without food or water.
Authorities claim that the property was not habitable because of a prior fire and that the dwelling had no power or water access. The man further allegedly threatened to blow up the local police station if any of his animals were taken from his property. The suspected individual is currently being evaluated by mental health officials. Sign this petition to demand justice for these innocent animals if it is found they were harmed, neglected or killed by this person.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Prosecutor Lynch,
A man is currently being observed during a 96-hour hospital watch after many dogs and cats were allegedly found dead or living in poor conditions without food or water on his property. It is important that justice is served for these animals if they were mistreated so that more creatures will be less likely to be harmed.
Deceased animals were reportedly found at the residence. It is also claimed that one dog was run over by a car while running around loose. Authorities claimed that two dogs were so sick that they died shortly after they were rescued and that some of the animals were living in feces filled crates. They also stated a dog and cat were being held in a small crate together and that they had no room to move around, or any way to gain access to water or food.
According to reports, the property had no power or water access because it had previously been destroyed by a fire. The man also allegedly threatened to blow up the police department if authorities seized his animals. For these reasons, I demand you suggest the accused party no longer be allowed to be around animals and that he receive an appropriate sentence as well as professional counseling if he is found guilty of such blatant animal cruelty.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

This individual obviously has mental problems and should be remanded to an institution for evaluation. He must also be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law for multiple counts of egregious animal neglect. He should be made to PAY ALL VET BILLS to restore surviving animals to full health and be BANNED from ever purchasing, owning, caring for, working with and living with any animals ever again.
Estoy totalmente de acuerdo !!!!
I totally agree with Wendy+Morrison
“ This CRUEL ASSHOLE DESERVE THE EXACT TREATMENT AS HE DISHED OUT TO ALL THESE INNOCENT ANIMALS FOR THE REST OF HIS MISERABLE LIFE!! He should NEVER BE ALLOWED TO ADOPT, OWN, AND BE NEAR ANY MORE ANIMALS FOR THE REST OF HIS MISERABLE LIFE after and while in prison!!!!” Pure evil being needs to be punished for such awful awful suffering of all those poor innocent souls😭 KARMA TO THAT DEVIL
Many animals suffered, 2 sweet little dogs suffered so much they died. This is unspeakable torture…so someone should be held accountable.
Get this person charged with Murder 1…countless animal cruelty charges…should NEVER come near another animal.
My question is also who how did he acquire all these animals…in some cases …I am sure…someone was not properly vetting this person! This willy nilly giving animals to just anyone should also be considered animal cruelty …as well as all the lawmakers and judges that give only slaps on wrist. YOU ARE ALL GUILTY….MAKE THIS STOP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Anyone harming an animal in any way should get the same exact abuse BACK!!!!! HOPE YOU ALL PAY BIG TIME!!!!
Don’t judge without knowing … most of the time there are people who have a good heart and rescue animals so they don’t suffer and that must be the case of that man… maybe his present income is too low and he tries to support them as best as he can…
Great comment it appears this man was trying to help these animals people should also have mercy on him
OH, COME ON.
The man is CLEARLY mentally incapacitated. Letting that many animals starve and living in a house with no power or water is MORE than being poor. Threatening people who want to remove the animals for lack of care is not normal behavior. Nothing about this man’s behavior is normal.
Your mercy is misplaced. You should have more compassion for those poor animals than this lunatic.
Put this scumbag behind bars and never allow them around animals again!!
In my opinion, pets are part of a family and no doubt they are
‘his family’ and he doesn’t want to part with any of them. What
should be done is to provide him with a big sack of dog and cat
food to help him feed them.
WAAAAY more than a sack of dog/cat food is needed here.
If you can’t understand that, you must be mentally incapacitated too.
Agree!
You actually think all that is needed here is a sack of animal food?
You’re as nuts as this man is.
These vile animal abusing scumbag animal abusers must be exterminated.
All animal abusers globally must be put to death and nothing less.
YES!!! And child predators too!!! What a tremendously fabulous start towards a better world that would be!!!
Animals shall NOT be VICTIMS of sadistic human psychopaths. Animal violence and neglect shall be treated as any human violence and neglect.
These animals deserve JUSTICE – just like YOU and ME!
MAX JAIL or DEATH PENALTY!
This scumbag shall be FORBIDDEN from coming near animals ever again!
If this man threatened to set fire to the house than you know he doesn’t care about the lives of those innocent animals. He must go to prison and never be allowed to own animals forever. I hope those animals were taken from him. He has no regard for life. We must toughen cruelty laws as this is all to common.
I’m so sorry to hear about these innocent animals being abused and neglected. The owner obviously has some mental health issues. Once he is determined to be competent, he needs to be severely punished. RIP to the fur babies that have passed on and I wish a speedy recovery for the others. I hope they all get justice.
I don’t care what this assholes issues are! He should be served the same fate!! Scum bag low life!! These animals need a voice and this scum bag should never see the light of day “EVER”!!!! Do the right thing to show others that this will never be tolerated!!!
Disgusting pathetic excuses for human beings
ANYONE WHO HURTS, KILLS OR CAUSES ANIMAL ABUSE ON ANY ANIMAL CAN NOT BE CALLED HUMAN!!!!
All animal abusers should face a firing squad!!
Many people want to help animals and then get in over their heads. Maybe this was the intent of this man, but he didn’t have the resources to help them properly. He seems to have mental issues, too. Thank goodness that these animals have been rescued and the proper agencies will be able to help the vast majority. Hoping that after the animals are healthy they will find loving, forever families.
ALL abuse of animals or wildlife needs to be a felony! A serious felony! States ave different laws and much of this abuse continues on in the a’do nothing states.’ Many states now have these crimes classified as felonies. Three states have hired lawyers to represent abused animals. I think that is the better course of action. Felonies across the board for any abuse offense might make these crimes serious crimes across the country. This man is insane but needs to be on trial and placed in prison away from society and never be allowed near another animal for the rest of his life. We fill in petitions and write our thoughts and comments but I would appreciate a follow through. Do these petitions work? What is the result of these cases?
All those involved in the horrors inflicted on these totally innocent animals need to be tightly chained in the midst if the filth and forgotten…IMO
Agree all comments starve these cunts to death eye for a eye . Laws need to change with harsh punishment. These cunts should have full force of the law. Starve them to death. No excuse for animal cruelty dont have them ir give them to shelter no excuse at all.
There are those few people who have a heart of gold but get caught in bad circumstances. He seems to be one of them. I give him the benefit of the doubt.
Course he should never go near an animal again! He is responsible for the suffering of countless innocent sentiment beings.
Throw him in that filth and leave him there till he dies or is eaten by rats.
