PETITION LETTER:
Dear Commonwealth’s Attorney Fleet,
A massacre of horses has occurred in your jurisdiction. A juvenile stands accused of shooting eight horses in a stable. Five are dead and three are wounded.
The scene of this bloodbath is in the Spout Springs area of Appomattox County, Virginia. Veterinarians were rushed to the property to save the three wounded horses. When deputies from the Appomattox Sheriff’s Office arrived, they began an investigation.
After a full forensics investigation, detectives identified a juvenile suspect, who was soon arrested and taken into custody. Neither the owner of the horses, nor the name of the juvenile suspect have been released.
Crimes against animals are to be taken seriously, so we ask that your office prosecute this alleged crime to its fullest extent.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

A juvenile with a Gun. That is a crime in itself. But then this juvenile thought it would be fun to kill a number of Horses belonging to someone else. An intention to kill went through the mind of this scumbag. I am thankful that authorities were able to find out and arrest the person responsible for this crime. Now lets hope that his/her juvenile status will not change the punishment that should be provided for the killings of these horses and injuring others.
SHOOT AND KILL THIS CRUEL & ABUSIVE JUVENILE whete he/she does NOT GROW UP INTO A CRUEL & ABUSIVE ADULT!!!!
Agree! 100%!! I hope this POS ends up dead!
Lock this “juvenile” scumbag up & throw away the key and while you’re at it, hold his parents accountable & make them pay for the dead horses & the Vet bills for the 3 that were still alive!!
I totally agree!!
AMEN! DEATH PENALTY!! HE HAS MURDERED BEFORE…. AND WILL AGAIN!!!
SERIAL KILLER! DAMN HIM!!!
This little monster needs to be tried as an adult. No slap on the wrist, this is murder of innocent beings. The parents need to be held responsible also!!
AMEN!!
Please release the name of this young up and coming serial killer and make his parents accountable!
Charge as an adult! This is so sickening and appalling! My thoughts are with the owners of the innocent and vulnerable horses.
Death penalty for bastard killer,SOB,POS,sick,asshole!
Justice for horses!R.I.P.
No names or identification of any party involved. Just wondering
SMOTHER THIS TEEN-TURD IN A FRESH PILE OF HORSE MANURE UNTIL HE CHOKES TO DEATH!!!
SOMEONE KILL HIM ASAP!!!
HE DOESN’T DESERVE TO BE ALIVE!!!
That bastard must be charged and prosecuted as an adult. He must go to jail for 10 years with no early parole. Real justice would be to shoot him dead.
