Target: Montgomery County District Attorney Daryl D. Bailey
Goal: Seek maximum punishment for man accused of shooting dog with crossbow and dumping body in river.
A man was apparently caught on film tying his dog to a tree and shooting it with a crossbow. Reports of this brutal attack came to light after neighbors belonging to the local homeowner’s association claimed to have security footage of this heinous event.
Officials with the Montgomery Humane Society were called to the neighborhood, where they received testimony and viewed the footage that appeared to record the brutal killing.
The video apparently shows Charles Graves placing his large white and grey female husky mix on a tether.
“Mr. Graves returns to his vehicle, retrieves his crossbow, and shoots the dog,” the humane officer wrote in the report. “Then [he] begins to drag the dog to the top of the hill and pushed the dog into the [river].”
Although Graves was arrested, he is being held on only $2,500 bail.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear District Attorney Bailey,
According to reports, a man tied his dog to a tree, shot her with a crossbow, and dumped the body in a river. Reports of this brutal attack came to light after neighbors belonging to the local homeowner’s association claimed to have security footage of this heinous event.
Officials with the Montgomery Humane Society were called to the neighborhood, where they received testimony and viewed the footage that appeared to record the brutal killing.
According to Humane Society officials, after tying his dog up, “Mr. Graves returns to his vehicle, retrieves his crossbow, and shoots the dog. Then [he] begins to drag the dog to the top of the hill and pushed the dog into the [river].”
Although Graves was arrested, he is being held on only $2,500 bail.
Animal abuse is a horrific crime that is often under-prosecuted. We ask that you conduct a vigorous prosecution and seek the maximum penalty in this case.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

Why do you often not include the state in which these things occur? I want to know where this is happening. There are Montgomery counties in Maryland, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Texas, I assume Alabama, and probably more.
Hello, Ann,
How are you?
The perpetrator is from Alabama.
And the dog, how is she?
Best regards,
Elaine.
Charles David Graves, 61 Montgomery Alabama
Put SCUMBAG LOWLIFE POS Charles Graves behind bars. DO NOT allow this scumbag to ever be around an animal again!!
Come on!! WE SHALL BRING JUSTICE IF THESYSTEM DOES NOT!
THIS MONSTER MUST DIE!!!!!!
THIS MONSTER MUST DIE A THOUSAND TORTUROUS DEATHS…..
I like an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth
OMG here is just another f*cking loser – he needs to be shot just like he did to his dog. He doesn’t deserve to walk this god damn earth. These animal abusers should receive the death penalty then maybe there would be a deterrent to these horrific cases of animal abuse. As long as they only receive a slap on the wrist this will never ever end. Such a sad sad state of affairs.
Yes!! Get rid of the human scumbags!!
Maximum felony animal abuse and murder charges is a must. No more letting these sickos off easy they need to spend their life in prison and never be allowed in society or ever own or be around any animals for life. He actually should get the death penalty for what he did to this innocent dog. It sad that the justice system doesn’t view animal murderers as a serious matter.
AMEN!!!
How about taking Charles David Graves 61, from Montgomery Alabama out to the deep woods, tie him up to a tree, smear animal fat on him, and let the animals eat him!! No prison, no waste of tax dollars!!
I extremely mad as is Cathy

Can you imagine a $2,500 bail for this heinous crime? It all boils down to what many are already aware of in that the Laws for these crimes are pathetic. This innocent dog died a horrible death at the hands of the owner and all law enforcement can throw at this scumbag Graves is a $2500 bail. I guess the death of Jesus has had no affect on Men to this day because they still sacrifice the most pure of loving and innocent beings while protecting the most Evil of beings.
Nothing to add. Amen.
The punishment should fit the crime i.e. tie him to a tree and shoot him with a crossbow. This guy is valueless and does not deserve to exist.
I’d like to see a man get the same treatment that he did to the dog – for once!!
Whichever state it is in the USA has an animal abuse law down as a felony. Issue is that the judges, lawyers and lawmakers are NOT enforcing it making more animals so vulnerable to such sick POS’. These parties are just as guilty of the animal abuse as they support the criminal by not throwing their foul asses in jail.
Evil garbage like this has to be arrested first. Most trash do not get arrested.
OF COURSE IT WAS A POS SCUMBAG DISPICABLE *MALE* HUMAN…SO CAPABLE OF ABUSIVE, MURDEROUS, CALLOUS BEHAVIOR (I’m not chastising the amazing, INTELLIGENT, COMPASSIONATE, LOGICAL ANIMAL LOVING REAL MEN–who would condemn this horrific action–much love and huge props to them!!) THESE VILE ANIMAL ABUSING, EARTH RAPING AND MANY TIMES HUMAN ABUSING LOSERS DESERVE TO BE TORTURED TO DEATH. ID LOVE TO SEE THIS SICK PILE OF SHIT (BETTING HE HATES LGBTQ, MINORITIES, WOMEN, RELIGIONS OTHER THAN CHRISTIANITY AND OUR ENVIRONMENT TOO) TIED TO A TREE, AN ARROW SHOT RIGHT INTO HIS DISGUSTING **MINISCULE** JUNK AND LEFT TO ROT RIGHT THERE. IM HAPPILY VOLUNTEERING TO DO IT AND ILL SLEEP BETTER AT NIGHT KNOWING THIS DISGUSTING SKANKKK-BREATH, KNUCKLE DRAGHING BUBBA INBRED REEKKKTARD IS COOKED. WATCH YOUR BACK YOU KKKOWARD BITCH…SOMETIMES THE HUNTER BECOMES THE HUNTED.
AMEN!!!
100% !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ALL THESE PUTRID ANIMAL TORTURING, RAPING MURDERING INBRED BASTARDS NEED CULLING (TORTURED OF COURSE)!!
& ALL THE AUTHORITIES, JUDGES THAT DON’T PUNISH THIS SCUM OF THE EARTH!!!! WTF IS WRONG WITH ALL THESE SPINELESS PEOPLE IN POWER?!
RIP ALL ANIMALS XXXXXXXX
I AGREE WITH YOU ALL HUSKY LOVING,NAILA AND PAULA. AND I LOVE WHEN YOU TOLD HIM TO WATCH HIS BACK….SOMETIMES THE HUNTER BECOMES THE HUNTED. I HOPE IT COULD BE REAL FOR ALL THESE HEARTLESS MONSTERS. THE ONLY JUSTICE FOR THEM IS AN EYE FOR AN EYE. NO JAIL BUT DEATH. DON’T PAY TO KEEP THEM IN JAIL.
Instigation of the death penalty is an essential procedure to be performed on all animal abusing scumbags. A slow and agonizing death is required.
The judge is an idiot & probably believes in the “catch & release” for criminals. Anyone who devalues God’s creations is most likely genuinely evil so will not impose a bail that fits such a heanous crime.
Would you believe that God would allow this judge to enter the kingdom of heaven?
Someone so uncompassionate & cold of heart for a loving & loyal pet murdered & discarded her lifeless body …. cast down to the cold unforgiving river below.
God calls upon us to be stewards for his creations not to discard them nor steal them away from their habitats and put them in little cages not to practice laboratory studies on them he wouldn’t tell us in the Bible to govern his creations if He didn’t love & cherish all his creations.
This piece of shit human should get the same treatment that he gave the poor dog. Since that won’t happen, just put him in a jail cell and throw away the key.
this fucking worthless piece of shit should have a arrow right through his fucking black heart
Sick, sadistic , Psycho!!!! He needs to be beaten and thrown in the river! He needs to be put in jail with animal lovers beat the crap out of him where he doesn’t have a chance like that defenceless dog tied to a tree and painfully killed.
Only prison will the acceptable sentence. He will only do it again!!!
Throw this POS animal killer in prison! He is not capable of living with the human race! He will spend eternity burning in hell.
The problem lies with those damn government officials who get a pay check and do absolutely NOTHING. I’m talking about lawyers, government officials and judges. I say they all (including the abuser) need to suffer the same thing fate as this poor dog. It’s truly disgusting that animals are not protected, like the criminals are protected with small bails and plea deals. It’s got to change!
Piece of shit should get the same treatment he did to this poor dog. Scum of the earth.
Agree all comments this cunt needs to be tied to a tree and shoot this cunt with bow but let him die in agony.
Put this son of a bitch behind bars,courts please do not be lenient with scum like him, hit him where it hurts
