Target: Bruce Bartlett, State Attorney of Pinellas County, Florida
Goal: Ensure a full investigation and prosecute those responsible for Dexter’s seemingly cruel death
In a grim discovery at Fort De Soto Park, authorities reportedly found the decapitated body of a four-year-old bulldog mix named Dexter, wrapped in a plastic bag and discarded among the mangroves. This shocking incident, which came to light following a report by local visitors, has prompted allegations of severe animal cruelty and improper disposal of an animal’s body. Dexter had only recently been adopted from Pinellas County Animal Services, an entity known for its rigorous adoption screening process.
Further investigation revealed that the last person known to have custody of Dexter was Domingo R. Rodriguez, who allegedly provided inconsistent statements regarding his activities and Dexter’s disappearance. This distressing scenario raises serious questions about the events leading to such a brutal act. The local community and animal rights advocates are understandably outraged, calling for swift and decisive legal action.
The necessity of holding individuals accountable for such heinous acts is clear. Pursue all legal avenues to prosecute the perpetrator of this alleged crime.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Attorney Bruce Bartlett,
We, the undersigned, are deeply troubled by the alleged discovery of a decapitated bulldog mix, known as Dexter, at Fort De Soto Park. This horrifying incident, as reported by the Pinellas County Sheriff’s Office, involved the alleged improper disposal of Dexter’s body and indications of severe animal cruelty. The last known custodian of Dexter, Domingo R. Rodriguez, reportedly provided multiple inconsistent statements to deputies, casting doubt on the circumstances of Dexter’s death.
This case not only represents an apparently tragic and brutal end to a defenseless animal’s life but also highlights potential lapses in protecting animals from cruelty and harm. It is imperative that this matter be addressed with the full force of the law to prevent future occurrences and to serve justice for Dexter. We urge your office to conduct a comprehensive investigation into this incident and to prosecute those responsible for any wrongdoing to the fullest extent of the law.
We trust that you will take our concerns seriously and act swiftly to ensure that justice is served. It is only through stringent enforcement of animal cruelty laws that we can hope to deter such heinous acts and safeguard the well-being of all animals in Pinellas County.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]
