I read with interest that Judge Tierra Jones sentenced Carlos Fonseca Jr. to 12-48 months in prison for savagely hanging a dog from a fence. It took him four different times to hang her before she died.
Many people in our community are watching these cases to see if these criminals are punished accordingly for these sadistic crimes against animals. I’d like to thank the district attorney’s office and Jones for taking these types of crimes seriously. Both the FBI and Metro Police recognize a strong connection between animal abuse and people abuse.
It’s up to our community to speak up against any form of cruelty and be able to remain anonymous. Just call crime stoppers at 702-385-5555.
