Target: Hon. George Gascón, Los Angeles County District Attorney
Goal: Ensure strict legal consequences for alleged animal cruelty and ensure the safety and well-being of the injured puppy.
In a deeply disturbing incident, a Los Angeles man was caught on surveillance video allegedly dropping a 7-month-old puppy down an apartment staircase. Allegedly, the man, identified as 27-year-old Joeboury Coleman, was seen in the footage grabbing the dog by the collar, taking it to the stairway railing, and then callously dropping the animal. Concerned residents of the Koreatown residence alerted the LAPD after the videos were posted on social media, leading to Coleman’s arrest.
Coleman has pled not guilty to three felony charges of animal cruelty and is currently being held without bond. He is due back in court for a preliminary hearing. Fortunately, the puppy, though injured, survived the fall and was seen running back up the stairs in the video. The dog has been taken to a local animal shelter for treatment of a broken hind leg consistent with a fall and might require surgery. Ensure strict legal consequences for this alleged animal cruelty.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Hon. George Gascón,
I am writing to express my deep concern over the recent incident involving a 7-month-old puppy allegedly being dropped down an apartment staircase by Joeboury Coleman in Los Angeles. This heinous act of apparent animal cruelty was captured on surveillance video, reportedly showing the man callously dropping the puppy, resulting in severe injuries.
Such acts of cruelty towards innocent animals cannot be tolerated and must be met with strict legal consequences. It is imperative that justice is served for the injured puppy and to send a strong message that animal cruelty will not be tolerated in our community.
I urge you to ensure that Coleman faces the full extent of the law for his suspected actions and that the puppy receives the necessary medical care and a safe environment for recovery. By taking a firm stance against animal cruelty, we can work towards creating a society where animals are treated with the compassion and respect they deserve.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

jail him
Joeboury Coleman is low-down jerk. His behavior is unacceptable. He needs to be severely punished and banned from being around animals. I hope this innocent puppy recovers and gets justice.
In Korea they eat dogs. This man had no affection for this puppy. Te dog’s leg is broken from the fall and this creep must pay all medical expenses. He must have a banana on his not being near, working with, or owning animals for the rest of his vile life. How can this man say he is innocent when he is shown on video throwing the dog down the stairs? Is he nuts? I guess he feels we are. We have no law in this country. If this man wants to get off he needs to take this to the Supreme Court where with some contributions he will get off. I feel at the very least he should be shoved down the stairs just as he did to the puppy with no medical intervention. He doesn’t deserve any. Show him how is actions feel to his victims!
Life sentence for bastard abuser,coward,POS,burn in hell!
Justice for the puppy
The poor pup is a baby and probably too ignorant to know what pain and true sufferings are yet until later. Broken bones and surgery , they are not minor injuries. Please give this scum Joeboury Coleman max punishments that includes jailterm for severe animal abuse.
Take the puppy away from this perp. He doesn’’t deserve the love of a dog or any animal for that matter. He is shown on video? What can be the problem. He is accountable. Demand he pay for all medical expenses to help this puppy, regime this puppy and care for any and all extra expenses. lace a ban on this jerk so he can never own, work with, or be around animals for the rest of his life. This man can’t be trusted with kids, other animals or any other living being. He is a monster to deliberately cause pain and suffering to another living being. It should be done to him. If only we could throw him down a set of stair, hurt him badly, and walk away allowing him to suffer on his own. That is exactly what he did!
