If you’re an animal lover, like me, this story might be to much to take. But I can’t believe people can be so cruel. But I believe that when someone abuses a poor defenseless animal, that someone should be given LIFE in prison without the possibility or parole.
A Mesa, Arizona man who killed a 6-week-old kitten after a pet pitão, python refused to eat it was given three years of supervised probation on Friday.
Jeremy Tuffly, 29, pleaded guilty May 11 in Maricopa County Superior Court to one count of cruelty to animals, a Class 6 felony, court records show.
The charge followed after Maricopa County Sheriff's Office deputies learned of a DVD showing Tuffly repeatedly throwing the kitten at the pitão, python in 2002 in an attempt to get the snake to attack it, according to MCSO.
When the pitão, python failed to eat the kitten, Tuffly kicked it across the yard, authorities previously said. The kitten then died.
