Two dogs tied to cement blocks, drowned
Two Beech Island teens are facing animal cruelty charges after two dogs were chained to concrete blocks and drowned in a pond. Cruelty to animals is a felony punishable by as much as five years in prison and a $5,000 fine.
We petition for a vigorous prosecution, as well as a large fine, jail time and mandatory counseling if these teens are convicted.

Active cruelty implies malicious intent, where a person has
deliberately and intentionally caused harm to an animal, and is
sometimes referred to as NAI (Non-Accidental Injury). Acts of
intentional cruelty are often some of the most disturbing and should be
considered signs of serious psychological problems. This type of
behavior is often associated with sociopathic behavior and should be
taken very seriously.
