In America our legal system is dead. We have no voice to speak for those who can not speak for themselves such as animals and children.
An investigation is necessary but I feel this man is guilty and should be held accountable for the death of his dog. If we had a working legal system punishment would be immediately enforced. If Trump is president he hates animals except to eat them. His kids kill just to have heads on their walls. There is no compassion in that area. Our legal system is based on law but the Supreme Court backs those who kill and the court does not protect those who do no harm to others, be it a person or a business. Sadly this is America today.
This coldblooded monster Arnold D. Thomas is guilty as charged. Animal abusers/killers like him should never be allowed to own pets since they refuse to respect and love them. Poor dog must have been tortured and living in fear throughout his entire life under his care. Now, only a good legal system can bring justice to this poor baby’s tragic and painful death. Please be very very harsh!
