Target: Knox County District Attorney Charme P. Allen, Tennessee
A woman named Jessica Kippen has been accused by former clients in Canada of neglecting and abusing several dogs, resulting in severe suffering and even death. Despite these serious allegations and an ongoing investigation in Ontario, she has moved to Knoxville, Tennessee, and is offering pet care services. This raises urgent concerns about the safety of animals in her care and the potential for further harm.
Former clients have allegedly described distressing incidents, including dogs returned in poor health, exhibiting signs of severe neglect, and in some cases, dogs dying while under her care. One client reportedly found her dog dehydrated, trembling, and with chewed-up medication bottles missing doses. Another client’s dog was apparently covered in sores and tested positive for infections after staying with her. These accounts highlight a pattern of alleged neglect and mistreatment.
Allowing someone allegedly linked to such serious allegations to continue offering pet care services poses a significant risk to the well-being of animals in the community. It is imperative that authorities thoroughly investigate these claims and take appropriate legal action to prevent further potential abuse. Demand that the Knox County District Attorney’s office investigate and prosecute this individual to protect animals from harm.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear District Attorney Charme P. Allen,
We are deeply concerned about reports that a woman named Jessica Kippen, who has been accused of neglecting and abusing dogs in Canada leading to their suffering and death, is now offering pet care services in Knoxville. Despite ongoing investigations in Ontario, she has relocated and continues to be involved in animal care, raising serious concerns about the safety of pets in our community.
Former clients have allegedly recounted disturbing incidents, including dogs returned in poor condition, suffering from dehydration, infections, and severe anxiety. In some tragic cases, dogs have allegedly died while under her care, with circumstances that suggest possible neglect or mistreatment. These allegations indicate a potential pattern of behavior that poses a risk to animals entrusted to her.
We urge your office to thoroughly investigate these serious allegations and take appropriate legal action to prevent any further potential harm to animals. Protecting the welfare of pets in our community is of utmost importance, and swift action is needed to ensure that individuals allegedly responsible for such acts are held accountable.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]
