Idaho – Ensure All Crimes of Animal Abuse & Cruelty Receive Felony Charges & Stricter Penalties

  • von: Sue Lee
  • empfänger: Idaho State Legislators

Most often when an animal is assaulted, harmed or neglected, the offender receives a minor misdemeanor charge and some menial penalties of a small fine.  As a result, these types of repercussions have little effect on anyone to stop the crime they were convicted of.  The crimes against defenseless animals will never stop unless the charges are taken more seriously with stricter charges and punishments.

Idaho has taken its first step in doing just that by creating felony charges for most animal cruelty crimes.  You can read more about their cruelty laws at http://www.straypetadvocacy.org/PDF/AnimalCrueltyLaws.pdf & http://idahohorsecouncil.com/?p=1093. In their efforts to protect animals, we encourage the State Legislators to ensure all animal abuse, cruelty and neglect receive felony charges on a first offense and any thereafter, making abusers strictly held accountable. In some instances, accidents and actions for self-defense do occur and seriously need to be proven when it comes to repercussions for harming an animal.  These defenseless creatures need and deserve humans to step in and ensure that abusers be held accountable for any and all forms of intentional animal cruelty.

The effort in this petition is to encourage the Idaho State Legislators to move forward with more serious felony charges for animal cruelty, abuse and neglect, resulting in serious, stringent penalties.  The goal is to ensure any and all offenses against an animal is classified as a felony, first offense and thereafter.  Along with the felony offense and appropriate consequences, the offender would be listed as a registered animal abuser that would prevent future mistreatment, ownership and encounters with any animals for a lifetime, guaranteed.  Strict measurements need to be taken and fully enforced in order to put an end to such animal cruelty. You can help with this issue by signing and sharing this petition, adding your own ideas and comments.



Idaho State Legislators – It is highly commendable that you have taken a first step in creating felony charges for some crimes against animals throughout the state and I am here to urge you to be more stringent in those efforts whenever there is any form of animal cruelty, abuse or neglect.  The goal is to ensure any and all offenses against an animal is classified as a felony, first offense and thereafter.  Along with the felony offense and appropriate consequences, the offender would be listed as a registered animal abuser that would prevent future mistreatment, ownership and encounters with any animals for a lifetime, guaranteed.  Strict measurements need to be taken and fully enforced in order to put an end to such animal cruelty.
