| Thanks to members of the Anti Cruelty Taskforce (ACT), the 2 men charged with setting a puppy on fire received an increased bond at their July 31 hearing. They will be in jail until their next court date on August 14. Cindy Sanders, Jackie Johns and Diane McManus attended the hearing for the two men and requested to meet with the prosecutor. Their presence sent a message to the judge that Memphians were outraged. THANKS very much to these hard-working volunteers! The puppy has been named "Hope" - she is expected to make a full recovery, and she is being treated at a private vet clinic. There is an online petition that can be signed asking for the maximum sentence for this crime: http://www.ipetitions.com/petition/ACTforHope/ Please sign this petition and forward the link to anyone you think will lend their support. |
