Dog torturer receives exemplary prison sentence

Dog torturer receives exemplary prison sentence

Mis à jour le 09 March 2018

Justice has been served for "Justice," the aptly named dog who was discovered tied up and abandoned to die. The judge ruled that the culprit be registered in a DNA database for criminals, based on the conviction that a strong link exists between violence against animals and humans.

Rescued in the nick of time

At the back of a shopping center in Windsor, Ontario (Canada), a small dog, approximately seven years old, was left for dead. His snout was tightly bound with tape, along with his legs and neck. Luckily, a passerby spotted him, saving him from suffocation. When he was released, he was so weak that he could barely stand upright. Fortunately, the local organization Windsor/Essex County Humane Society was able to care for him during his recovery.

An exemplary judgment

Once the culprit was found during the investigation, a lawsuit ensued. The judge who handled the case condemned the offender to the maximum sentence: two years in prison and three years probation, along with a twenty-five year ban on owning animals. Additionally, he ordered that the animal torturer be registered in the national DNA database: it is widely known that criminals often start off as animal abusers.

And in France?

Abusive individuals target animals and humans alike, showing a lack of respect for all life, regardless of species. There is no exception to this rule in France: in Griffin's Griffin's case, the offender both hit his girlfriend and set her cat on fire.

Currently, convicted or suspected criminals are registered in a national DNA database (FNAEG) managed by the Ministry of Justice. One Voice has insisted that the Minister of Justice include animal abusers in these records in order to prevent crimes against people.

Je suis scandalisée par une telle cruauté sur ce pauvre animal qui a été sauvé de justesse.Comment peut-on en arriver là ??? Ce pauvre chien a peut-être tout essayé pour se faire aimer mais apparemment ce fût un échec. Peut-être faut-il être encore plus sévère avant de faire adopter un animal ??? Pourtant je me suis rendue compte en adoptant une adorable chatte de 10 ans, qui était derrière des barreaux depuis un an déjà avec beaucoup d'autres chats, que le questionnaire était déjà très sérieux, ils ne l'ont pas lâchée comme ça, avant d'avoir un certain nombre de garanties. Avant, il parait qu'elle errait dans la rue. Nous ne savons rien de son passé mais avec ma fille, qui me l'a trouvée le 13 janvier dans un refuge et me l'a apportée le 14, et je crois que ce fût dès notre première rencontre, tout comme avec ma fille, un coup de foudre réciproque, comme si nous nous connaissions depuis toujours. Rien ne lui manque, elle a tout son confort et je cherche à lui faire oublier son passé Depuis nous vivons toutes les deux des moments merveilleux, et grâce à ma GRISETTE ma vie a complètement changée ....

Evidemment que des actes de cruauté sur des animaux font partie des infractions permettant le prélèvement et la conservation des traces génétiques, tout comme ce qui est fait pour résoudre les crimes et délits d'atteintes aux personnes.
