Target: Bruce L. Bartlett, State Attorney for Pinellas and Pasco Counties, FL
Goal: Ensure appropriate punishment for man accused of throwing a dog from a balcony and targeting a minor.
The alleged actions of Nigel Alexander Myers present a disturbing case of apparent animal cruelty intertwined with grave potential harm to a minor. Reports indicate that during a confrontation with a 15-year-old girl, Myers not only attempted to force her into a bedroom but also violently threw his own dog, Sparta, against a cage and off a second-floor balcony.
The extent of the alleged cruelty is alarming. Witnesses describe the moment when young Sparta tried to defend the victim, only to be violently discarded like a ragdoll, resulting in serious injuries. The pain apparently inflicted on this innocent dog, who was merely acting protectively, reflects a profound disregard for the welfare of animals and vulnerable individuals alike. It is essential to recognize that Myers’ alleged actions could have had fatal consequences for both the dog and the human victim.
Demanding justice in this case is imperative, not only for the sake of Sparta but also to ensure that the safety and well-being of young people and animals are prioritized. Such behavior should be met with stringent repercussions to prevent future acts of cruelty and violence. It is crucial that the State Attorney pursues the maximum permissible penalties for these alleged crimes, reflecting the severity of the situation and serving as a warning against similar acts in the community.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear State Attorney Bartlett,
The recent alleged actions of Nigel Alexander Myers have shocked the community and raised concerns regarding the treatment of both animals and minors. Reports indicate that on September 29, 2025, Myers followed a 15-year-old girl against her will and subsequently hurled his 3-year-old pit bull, Sparta, not once but twice, inflicting serious harm in a shocking display of aggression.
Myers’ behavior allegedly endangered not only the life of his dog but also threatened the safety of a young girl. Sparta’s instinctive protective response should not have been met with brutality. The injuries reportedly sustained by this innocent creature are a heartbreaking reminder of the consequences of unchecked aggression. The actions attributed to Myers reflect a potential pattern of behavior that must be addressed to prevent future incidents.
We urge you to ensure that the prosecution of Nigel Alexander Myers aligns with the gravity of the alleged offenses. Appropriate penalties must be pursued to underscore the seriousness of animal cruelty and the endangerment of minors. This community needs to be assured that such heinous acts will not be tolerated, and justice will be served for those who cannot advocate for themselves.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]
