Target: Montgomery County District Attorney Daryl D. Bailey
Goal: Seek maximum punishment for man accused of shooting dog with crossbow and dumping body in river.
A man was apparently caught on film tying his dog to a tree and shooting it with a crossbow. Reports of this brutal attack came to light after neighbors belonging to the local homeowner’s association claimed to have security footage of this heinous event.
Officials with the Montgomery Humane Society were called to the neighborhood, where they received testimony and viewed the footage that appeared to record the brutal killing.
The video apparently shows Charles Graves placing his large white and grey female husky mix on a tether.
“Mr. Graves returns to his vehicle, retrieves his crossbow, and shoots the dog,” the humane officer wrote in the report. “Then [he] begins to drag the dog to the top of the hill and pushed the dog into the [river].”
Although Graves was arrested, he is being held on only $2,500 bail.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear District Attorney Bailey,
According to reports, a man tied his dog to a tree, shot her with a crossbow, and dumped the body in a river. Reports of this brutal attack came to light after neighbors belonging to the local homeowner’s association claimed to have security footage of this heinous event.
Officials with the Montgomery Humane Society were called to the neighborhood, where they received testimony and viewed the footage that appeared to record the brutal killing.
According to Humane Society officials, after tying his dog up, “Mr. Graves returns to his vehicle, retrieves his crossbow, and shoots the dog. Then [he] begins to drag the dog to the top of the hill and pushed the dog into the [river].”
Although Graves was arrested, he is being held on only $2,500 bail.
Animal abuse is a horrific crime that is often under-prosecuted. We ask that you conduct a vigorous prosecution and seek the maximum penalty in this case.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

TIE THIS CRUEL ABUSIVE IDIOT TO A TREE AND SHOOT HIM WITH DULL ARROWS FROM A CROSSBOW UNTIL HE DIES A SLOW & PAINFUL DEATH as he did to his INNOCENT HUSKY!!! NO EXCUSE ANY ANIMAL CRUELTY AND ABUSE TOWARDS ALL ANIMALS!!!!!!!!
The cruelty to animals in this world is beyond belief in every country for all the things the animals are used, for there was zero compassion for these beings to feel pain and love and fear
Sometimes I feel that most of the human race isn’t worth the gun powder it would take to blow them away
It’s so terrible that most of the politicians of the world turn a blind eye to all this abuse only because there’s money in it for them
When their true responsibility as public servants is to Protect all life and promote the changes essential so that there will be a world tomorrow for those to inherit
This sicko should pay way more for purposely killing his dog in a disgusting and disturbing way!!! Raise his fine, make him pick up trash like he is and never ever allow him animals again!!! The poor dog deserves justice now!!!! So sick and sad!!!!
I think that everyone who agrees that animals should have more rights should try to get laws passed in their communities against animal abuse. There also has to be proper consequences under these laws for when they are broken. A slap on the hand isn’t enough to change people. You have to hit them in the pocketbook, have them get re-educated, and add some community service or …
Once smaller communities have these laws on the books, we can work on city, state and country laws. Also, get your schools to teach love and empathy for all creatures, or maybe start a special program by taking your own pets in to schools to educate the kids about animals. We need to DO something rather than just complaining and seeking an “eye for an eye”.
Shoot the fucking piece of shit subhuman and end his useless vile existence.
He should suffer the same as he did to that poor dog, but keep him alive.
Ditto
Unacceptable. Why didn’t this pos just give the dog away or take it to the animal shelter???? This trash needs a hefty fine and a lengthy jail sentence.
What the judge gave this creep is a joke .
THIS IS THE MOST OUTRAGEOUS ACT OF ANIMAL ABUSE AND CRUELTY. PROSECUTE THIS PIECE OF SHIT TO THE FULL EXTENT OF THE LAW AND HOPEFULLY SOMEONE WILL BEAT THE LIVING SHIT OUT OF HIM. SHOOT HIM WITH CROSSBOWS AND THEN POUR SULPHURIC ACID INTO HIS EYES. AS HE’S SCREAMING WITH EXCRUCIATING PAIN, DRAG HIM TO THE RIVER AND THROW HIS WORTHLESS ASS INTO THE RIVER TO DROWN.
All animal abusers should hang
Graves is full of rage, anger, hate and released all his problems on a poor defenseless animal in a most horrific, cruel death. I feel for this husky and the life he had with this criminal. The husky most likely has been viciously and repeatedly abused for a long time. Graves must be charged and sentenced to jail for a long time. Hope Graves gets same experiences in jail like the ones he inflicted on the defenseless husky. Graves must never be allowed to have dogs/pets/animals.
He needs to be hung for what’s he down. Why are animals tortured, and killed and the person who committed the crime gets away with, a heavy a fine or a couple of months in prison. Make an example out of them to determine others committing the same horrendous crimes
I wish the death penalty still existed because this bastard deserves to die
execute that son of a bitch. search and destroy.
this devil has no right to live
FUCKING CUNT PIECE OF WORTHLESS SHIT!!!!! HE NEEDS HIS BALLS HACKED OFF WITH A RUSTY STEAK KNIFE THEN HOGTIED AND USED AS CROSSBOW PRACTICE. EVIL MOTHERFUCKER. UNBELIEVABLE THAT THIS POOR SWEET PUP’S LIFE WAS ONLY WORTH $250 TO THE SCUM-SUCKING JUDGE. CHUCK GRAVES AIN’T WORTH ONE FUCKING CENT.
Tie him up and feed hi
To the grizzly bears or take his worthless ass and drop him in the waters of alligator alley!! They will have a nice meal on his worthless ass!!!!
We have options — this is obscenely cruel & heartbreaking — $2,500 is laughable — throw SICKO in prison — ENSURE this IDIOT-Charles Graves NEVER AGAIN own or foster Animals — he’s dangerous to us all, especially the Animals.
