Target: Westchester County District Attorney Miriam E. Rocah
Goal: Seek maximum punishment for man accused of beating puppy and throwing him into gate.
The violent attack on a 9-month-old puppy was so severe that bystanders began filming. A man, apparently identified as 29-year-old Anthoin McPherson, is seen violently hitting the puppy and then lifting him up and throwing the puppy into a metal gate.
After the video was provided to authorities, McPherson was arrested and the puppy, named Maximus, was accepted by the Yonkers Animal Shelter. Rescuers reported that Maximus healed quickly, and enjoyed treats and belly rubs during his recovery.
The alleged attacker, McPherson, is facing criminal charges, but as is often the case, there are concerns that he will be given just a slap on the wrist.
As for Maximus, he was quickly adoped by a forever family. “If you look at that video and it doesn’t turn your stomach then you’re not human,” adopter Ricky Vetrano said. Fortunately for Maximus, he is now safe from his attacker.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear District Attorney Rocah,
The violent attack on a 9-month-old puppy was so severe that bystanders began filming. A man, apparently identified as 29-year-old Anthoin McPherson, is seen violently hitting the puppy and then lifting him up and throwing the puppy into a metal gate.
After the video was provided to authorities, McPherson was arrested and the puppy, named Maximus, was accepted by the Yonkers Animal Shelter. Rescuers reported that Maximus healed quickly, and enjoyed treats and belly rubs during his recovery.
The alleged attacker, McPherson, is facing criminal charges, but as is often the case, there are concerns that he will be given just a slap on the wrist.
We are writing you to ask that you ensure justice is served in this case. Don’t let the accused get off with a slap on the wrist if he is found guilty. Please seek the maximum penalty in this case.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]
29-year-old Anthoin McPherson, should be given the death penalty!!! He’s a pos!!!!!
Totally agree with you!!
100%
Totally
Where do all these sick demented people come from???
Beat him and slam him into a door then throw him under the jail after being put in a “never to own a pet” list again!!
Totally agree! If I’d seen it in person, I step outside myself and go into attack mode. I’d have taken that ass down! Surprise!
…Yes stop him….but good to get proof and call 911 also…
This CRUEL & ABUSIVE IDIOT NEEDS TO BE BEATEN WITHIN AN INCH OF HIS MISERABLE LIFE BEFORE THROWING HIM INTO A PRISON CELL WITHOUT GETTING ANY MEDICAL ATTENTION FOR ALL OF HIS STAY THERE!!!!!
Throw the fucking animal abuser in prison! Hell awaits!
F and F wich means, find him and fuck him!
Scum of the Earth lowdown bastard!!! Rotten cunt!! I hope he dies a slow painful death!!
Anthoin McPherson looks to be 3 to 4 times the size of this puppy so that just goes to show you that violent Men like this are referred to as cowards. With video evidence of this crime, there is no reason why Anthoin McPherson should get off with a slap on the wrist. He should also be mandated by a Judge to seek anger management.
This vile, mentally severe dog abusing scumbag most definitely must have the death penalty implemented and nothing less. A slow and agonizing extermination of this evil cretin is required!
I’m so glad this creep was caught. Poor puppy, he’s safe now. That dirty pos monster deserves the same treatment. Beat him with a steel bat!!
It was taped but no one stepped in…called police? Great to have proof but we need to do more when it is happening.
I’m so sorry to hear that poor, innocent Maximus was subjected to such cruelty. Anthoin McPherson is a low-down, sadistic slimy snake for inflicting this pain and suffering on Maximus. His behavior is unacceptable. I hope he is severely punished and banned from being around animals. I glad Maximus was adopted by a loving family. I wish Maximus a speedy recovery and I hope he gets justice.
Death penalty for bastard abuser.
Justice for Maximus!
MAX JAIL for ALL animal-torturers and animal-abusers. No animal deserves to be sadistically abused by dehumanized and desensitized psychopathic human scum. This monster must be forbidden from coming near animals ever again! MAX JAIL!!!!!
GHETTO-ASS FUCKING CUNT. GODDAMN WASTE OF FUCKING SPACE AND OXYGEN. I HOPE HE GETS MOWED DOWN BY A CITY BUS BUT DOESN’T DIE. HE DESERVES TO LIVE IN CONSTANT PAIN WITH A SHATTERED, FRAGMENTED BODY. UGLY PIECE OF SHIT.
heinous and deliberate…needs to be shut down now!
Do the same to him. Throw the POS in jail with animal lovers.
Take a good look people!!! This is trash!! He is trash!!! He needs to be taken to the local dump and beaten and then left!!! What an SOB!!!
I pray he never sees the light of day!!!! He doesn’t deserve to see it!!!!!
Let’s hope that this Anthoin McPherson-garbage doesn’t breed from his sperm – because God help any children that he produces. They will probably be similarly beaten by their violent father.
THIS PIECE OF CRAP COWARD NEEDS TO GET A WORST PUNISHMENT THAT HE WILL NEVER FORGET.A MAN NEEDS TO TAKE ON THIS COWARD AND MAKE AN EXAMPLE OUT OF HIM!
