Target: Ray Whitley, District Attorney General of Summer County, TN
Goal: Prosecute man who allegedly fatally burned pet kitten to fullest extent.
“There was no way to even comprehend the amount of pain he was feeling.” This somber statement came from the rescue group who cared for Phoenix, a five-week-old kitten brought to the Tennessee-based organization. Phoenix had apparently suffered severe burns over much of his body, leaving him with extensive nerve damage. Despite the rescue’s best efforts, Phoenix tragically died from his injuries.
Local police reportedly confirmed that these horrific burns resulted from Phoenix being tossed into a fire pit. He is beleived to have suffered for days without medical intervention before his case was brought to authorities’ attention…precious time that could have been used to save his life. Richard Lee Tyler Russell, the man with whom Phoenix lived, has been charged with aggravated animal cruelty.
Sign the petition below to demand he receive maximum punishment if found guilty.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear District Attorney General Whitley,
Suspect Richard Lee Tyler Russell has an impending court date on charges of aggravated animal cruelty. He stands accused of throwing his pet kitten into a fire pit and leaving the animal to suffer from extensive injuries without medical aid. Although the kitten was later rescued thanks to a tip from a good Samaritan, he reportedly died in agony. The rescue organization who battled to save his life said of the tragedy: “his tiny body was just unable to fight off the horrible burns he was dealing with, plus the smoke inhalation.”
Both this organization, who witnessed the horrific effects firsthand, and the community at large are pleading for justice to be served. Please be vigilant in prosecuting this disturbing case and pursuing the most severe penalty.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

Tennessee is scared to prosecute people who do these hideous crimes. They need to get a DA who wears big boy pants and has the balls and spine to put the blow torch to dirt bags like this.
Yes absolutely!!!!
Richard Lee Tyler Russell **The vile EVIL BASTARD deserves the same treatment that he gave that poor kitten.
RIP : Sweet Phoenix 🙁 You didn’t deserve what happened
As for the POS who did it .. your fucking lucky I’m not the one implementing your punishment.
First thing that would happen is .. I’d cut your balls and pecker off because you should never be allowed to reproduce!!
Next thing would be your eyelids would be glued open so you get to see what’s coming next. Guess what that is asshole?
Tied to a stake over a nice pile of logs… some flammable liquid added. A large mirror in front of you so you see it .. a match and WHOOOOOOOOOOSH … BURN BABY BURN!!!!
Dangerous sociopath. Please lock him up to keep society safe from his violence. Next time it will be a child. Stop him now!!
I beg God, the Universe and KARMA to inflict the most unimaginable, horrific, heinous suffering and torture on this scumbag, ass-licking, piece of shit, human excrement eating monster. In any form possible.
TO THE POWERS THAT BE: TAKE NOTE AND HEED. ANIMAL ADVOCATES ARE A PASSIONATE GROUP WHO PUT AN EXPONENTIAL VALUE ON ANIMAL LIVES– AS IT SHOULD BE AND AS THEY DESERVE. ANIMALS ARE GOD’S AND THE UNIVERSE’S PRECIOUS CREATIONS AND GIFTS TO US. ONLY AN ANTIQUATED, SELFISH, THOUGHTLESS MINDSET
DECIDED LONG AGO THAT ANIMALS **WEREN’T WORTHY OF RESPECT AND KINDNESS. THOSE TIMES ARE OVER!!! WE DEMAND THAT NEW AND BETTER LAWS BE INACTED WITH EXPONENTIALLY SEVERE PUNISHMENT METTED OUT FOR THOSE WHO NEGLECT, TORTURE AND KILL ANIMALS. THE TIME HAS COME!! THERE ARE ANIMAL ADVOCATES WILLING TO SEEK OUT THESE VILE SCUM AND TAKE THE LAW IN THEIR OWN HANDS TO PROVE A POINT, SET AN EXAMPLE AND MOST IMPORTANTLY, AVENGE THE ABHORRENT TORTURE OF THE LEAST OF US. WE ARE SICK OF THE SENSELESS, SICK, PSYCHOPATHIC BULLYING OF ANIMALS!! SOME OF THESE ADVOCATES HAVE STATED IF/WHEN THEY HAVE NOTHING TO LOSE *** THEY WILL *** EXACT EYE FOR AN EYE VIGILANTEISM ON THESE DIPLORABLE MONSTERS. SOME WILL BE LEFT AS A HORRIFIC EXAMPLE OF THE CONSEQUENCE OF HARMING AN ANIMAL, OTHERS WILL SIMPLY DISAPPEAR, “SSS” AS IT WERE.
I am here and will help you. You want to feel 5 day old burns all over your body? To this waste of air that should have been aborted, may you rot in hell.
THE BASTARD DON’T DESERVE THE OXIGEN! I HOPE HE DIES BURNED
AGREE !!!!!!!
There can never be true justice for what happened to that little soul. RIP.
I cannot say what I could do to the POS that did this because it would brand me as a psychopath type of person
May hellfire burn especially hot for you, sick-o. You won’t get the punishment you deserve here but let’s hope this evil deed won’t slip by the Almighty…
Which one is he on Facebook? I know a lot of people in TN who won’t stand for this. Let’s string him up.
YES! Put his name out there!
Burn the shit outta this POS who did this to him. SHOW NO MERCY!!!!!
Omg!This is so disturbing and sickening! Let me at the bastard!!God help this world…
Mr Russell is one demented, piece of shit who should not be walking the planet. This is so horrific to know how that innocent little kitten must have suffered. That disgusting subhuman needs to suffer the same way. Do not let this scum loose on society. Justice for the voiceless.
People like this are not safe a round any anima l, small child or defenseless person ever! He is obviously a deeply disturbed person who should never be allowed near humans or animals ever! One has to wonder if he’s done this before, it wouldn’t surprise me.
that is truely pure evil and the culprit definately is a psychopath that needs to be held accountable for what was done poor wee kitten suffering for days is very very sad may there be forever peace at rainbow bridge for you wee kitten and ongoing hell on earth for whomever did this
Richard Lee Tyler Russell deserves to be set on fire!!
This is psychopathic. Throwing a living being into a fire and then let him/her suffer tremendously from the burn wounds, is so cruel, so callous, so sadistic and so violent that this person needs to be taken out of society. He’s a danger to his surroundings and it will very likely go from horrendous to worse. What will he do next time? The court should do everything possible to put him somewhere where his behaviour can be monitored and controlled.
Please lock this subhuman up for eternity. That dear sweet little kitten, didn’t deserve this.Rip sweet baby. God has gave you comfort at last.
Tennessee … where animal cruelty is sport. What a state of stupid.
Tennessee has pathetic laws for the protection of innocent animals. This POS will get a slap on the wrist. What next? An innocent baby? He’s already done 1, what’s one more? The absolute scum needs to be put away. Let him share a cell with a huge animal lover, and don’t interfere when the scum gets to “feel the love” …. disgusting puke. Prosecute Prosecute Prosecute
You can’t fix evil. You must destroy it.
If the powers that be [i.e.: Justice Systems worldwide] do not GROW A PAIR and stand up and finally do the right thing….then I am all for bringing back AN EYE FOR AN EYE!!!!! FULL STOP!!!!!ANIMAL ABUSE IS unequivocally UNACCEPTABLE !!!!!
