Target: Nassau District Attorney Anne Donnelly
Goal: Seek maximum penalty for man accused of abusing two dogs in 2018, a cat in 2022, and another cat in 2023.
Reportedly, two dogs were attacked with boiling water, one cat was doused in bleach, and another cat was tortured, all in three separate incidents perpetrated by the same person. After each of these cases, the man was given a slap on the wrist and set free.
The first reported attack occurred in 2018 when Raymond Neuberger, a former politician, was accused of abusing his fiance’s two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. Apparently, one suffered burns from boiling water and the other had broken ribs. In that case, Neuberger was jailed for only 43 days. Neuberger received a sweetheart deal with accelerated rehabilitation and a pre-trial probation program that wiped the charges from his record.
The second reported attack occurred in 2022 when Neuberger was accused of dousing his girlfriend’s cat in bleach and beating it in the head until the animal suffered fatal neurological trauma. He also was accused of beating his girlfriend that day. After this incident, Neuberger was arrested and then released on bail.
The third reported attack occurred in 2023 when Neuberger was arrested for abusing and torturing another cat. Almost immediately after his arrest, Neuberger was again set free after posting a $10,000 bond.
These accusations of repeated animal abuse by the same individual shock the conscience and seem like they will continue until the justice system begins to take animal abuse seriously.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear District Attorney Donnelly,
A man in your jurisdiction has been accused of severe animal abuse in three separate incidents, spanning the past five years.
Reportedly, two dogs were attacked with boiling water, one cat was doused in bleach, and another cat was tortured, all in three separate incidents perpetrated by the same person. After each of these cases, the man was given a slap on the wrist and set free.
The first reported attack occurred in 2018 when Raymond Neuberger, a former politician, was accused of abusing his fiance’s two Cavalier King Charles Spaniels. Apparently, one suffered burns from boiling water and the other had broken ribs. In the case, Neuberger was jailed for only 43 days. Neuberger received a sweetheart deal with accelerated rehabilitation and a pre-trial probation program that wiped the charges from his record.
The second reported attack occurred in 2022 when Neuberger was accused of dousing his girlfriend’s cat in bleach and beating it in the head until the animal suffered fatal neurological trauma. He also was accused of beating his girlfriend that day. After this incident, Neuberger was arrested and then released on bail.
The third reported attack occurred in 2023 when Neuberger was arrested for abusing and torturing another cat. Almost immediately after his arrest, Neuberger was again set free after posting a $10,000 bond.
These accusations of repeated animal abuse by this same individual shock the conscience and seem like they will continue until the justice system begins to take animal abuse seriously.
Please stop this apparent cycle of animal abuse and seek the maximum penalty in this case.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]
