Target: Karl Racine, Attorney General for Washington, D.C.
Goal: Seek maximum penalty in case of brutal dog beating.
Several video doorbells in the Washington DC area captured a horrific act of animal cruelty. The collective footage shows an unidentified person throwing a defenseless dog hard into a sidewalk. As if this brutal act were not enough, the person can then be seen dragging the stunned dog along the path while kicking the animal.
Authorities are working to identify the assailant. They are gathering leads from the neighborhoods where the attack reportedly took place. The president of the local Humane Rescue Alliance said of the incident: “as a humane community we can have zero tolerance for despicable violence toward animals, and we intend to fight cruelty wherever it exists.”
Sign the petition below to urge legal leaders to take a similar zero-tolerance approach when a suspect is apprehended.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Mr. Racine,
Home surveillance cameras are intended to help stop impending crimes, but in a DC neighborhood these devices recently recorded a crime in action. An unidentified suspect was caught on video manhandling, kicking, and dragging a dog along a sidewalk. The fate of this animal is unknown, but if a blatant act of cruelty is taking place in full view it does not bode well if the dog is regularly under this person’s care.
Please keep in contact with authorities and be prepared to bring full charges after a person of interest is identified.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

This vile dog abusing scumbag requires instiagtaion of the death penalty!!
The magic words here are “unknown perpetrator”. Unless you know who the bastard is then it’s a waste of time to put this on here, wouldn’t you think Tiff??
I disagree strongly with your comment.It is essential that people are made aware of abusive situations.
… and perhaps someone can identify that piece of scum!
Dear Mr. Racine,
Unfortuntely we are surrounded by ill-born bastards lately!
Let’s hope that someone will identify him to enable you to jail him for the longest possible time!
Thank you!
Yes, Mr. Racine, have no pity on him! It’s about time that a Federal Law be enacted to get rid of all those cowards! Too bad he cannot be subject to the same treatment once before jailing them!
What a coward, he deserves to be jailed as soon as he is identified, who wants monsters walking the streets harming either humans or indefense animals?
