Florida Cat Torture Case

Recently a complaint has been forwarded to the State Attorney's Office against an Ormond Beach man who, according to a charging affidavit, inflicted near-fatal injuries on an innocent cat. According to an article printed on Feb. 14, 2009 in the Daytona Beach News Journal investigation into this case is only under consideration. We the undersigned believe that this case needs to be investigated and that the offender, if found guilty, should be prosecuted accordingly. Just as many cases involving dog fighting are investigated and prosecuted so should this case receive the same attention. A person that would violently hold down an innocent pet breaking its arm while assaulting it with a plunger stick could commit this kind of violent act on any defenseless animal, man, woman or child. Thank you for taking time to consider our concerns.
