Target: Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania Attorney John W. Peck
Goal: Put man in prison who reportedly physically assaulted a dog, ran the creature over with his truck, and left the animal to die.
Devin Jacob Eli Rugg was arrested and charged with two counts of animal cruelty after he allegedly abused a dog on the side of the road. He needs to spend the maximum amount of time in prison if he is found guilty to hopefully avoid another similar tragic situation in the future.
A lady told authorities that Rugg pulled off the side of the road and began screaming at the animal. She further went over to explore the area after the man left and reportedly found a pit-bull type dog profusely bleeding and crying on the road’s shoulder. Although the dog, later named Russell, was quickly taken to a local veterinarian to receive medical treatment, the animal is reportedly still in excruciating pain after being treated for multiple cuts, bone bruises, and pelvic fractures.
Pictures of where the alleged incident took place were posted on social media, and Rugg was apprehended soon afterwards. According to the person who was with Rugg during the incident, he said that he was going to kill Russell before he reportedly assaulted the animal and ran the creature over twice. Sign this petition to demand Rugg be given the strictest sentence under the law if it is found he hurt this innocent animal.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear County Attorney Peck,
An innocent dog was reportedly tortured, run over twice, and left to die. Devin Jacob Eli Rugg was arrested for the crime after news of the incident spread on social media. He needs to spend the most time behind bars possible if it is found he committed this horrific act to better ensure other animals will not endure the same fate.
A person called police after she allegedly saw the dog, now named Russell, fiercely being yelled at on the side of the road. After the man left, she checked the area and later told police that the animal was bleeding from all four limbs and yelping loudly. According to one witness, the animal was picked up as a stray, and Rugg threatened to kill the creature after getting into a heated fight with his girlfriend.
A local veterinarian reportedly treated Russell for severe injuries, including bruises on the animal’s bones, pelvic fractures, and numerous lacerations. For these reasons, we demand you seek the harshest legal sentence for Rugg if he is found guilty and that he be required to not only spend time in prison, but that he also be made to pay all pertinent fines relating to his charges, if it is found he committed this disgusting act of animal cruelty.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

I honestly believe that creeps like this Rugg should be assigned to laboratories that now do horrible tests on innocent animals. It appears to me that this would be up their alley of cruelty and it would get these evil beings out of society.
Why would you want this sick sociapath deranged bastard. To work in a lab with other sociapaths with no hearts or souls so he can join them and torture more innocent precious animal BEINGS.
Sounds about right!
I can’t bear this…why are people so evil?
Prayers for Baby Russell, that he will heal and be adopted into a forever home where he will be loved and cherished…
Devin Jacob Eli Rugg MUST pay for his murderous assault of this defenceless puppy !!! Throw the book at Devin Jacob Eli Rugg !!!!
Sick bastard! Run him over and leave him to die. The world would be better off.
Totally agree with you!!
RIGG NEEDS TO HAVE TIME IN PRISON THEN LET THE GUARDS N PRISONERS WHO LOVE DOGS BREAK HIS PELVIC BONES N EVERYTHING PLUS WHAT HE DID TO THIS. Beautiful DOG, SOMETHING DEFENSELESS. He’s a coward HES A COWARD N NEEDS TO BE PUNISHED THIS IS A CRIME MAKE SURE HE NEVER GOES NEAR ANOTHER ANIMAL AGAIN
Thank God that there was a witness who saw what was happening and helped the puppy who surely Would have died.
As for Rugg, he is a low life scum bag who needs to be burried somewhere after he gets his ass beat
I’ll take the dog. First though I’ll take Rugg – with pleasure!!!!
This guy needs to be put through the same misery he put this poor dog through.
I hope he dies a slow miserabile death and rots in jail!!!!
I m not sure Pennsylvania really cares about animal abuse
Let’s find out .
I can’t say enough about this evil man who did this to this poor defenseless dog. I think this man deserves the death penalty after he receives the same things that he did to that poor dog! This is another Jeffrey Dahmer in the making! Guaranteed he will do this again if not punished to the fullest extent! This is one of the worst things I’ve heard of. To rot in Hell is to good for him!
TOXIC MASCULINITY IS KILLING EVERYONE AND THE ENTIRE PLANET WE NEED TO SURVIVE!!! THROW THIS WASTE OF AIR INTO THE STREETS AND LETS RUN HIM OVER! OUT OF THE GENE POOL!
This disgusting evil devil deserves the death penalty! There is no excuse for this heinous treatment of an animal. If he didn’t want the dog anymore,then for hells sake, take him to a shelter! People like this creep, Rugg, don’t deserve to be in society. I hope the poor dog will heal and go to a loving home.
TOTALLY AGREE JAIME!!! DEATH SENTENCE FOR THIS SICK PHYCOPATH IN THE SAME MANNER BEAT HIM TO DEATH AND RUN HIM OVER WITH A TRACTOR TRAILER TILL HE DIES AN EYE FOR AN EYE BURN IN HELL!!!!
You are definately a brain dead sub human! May you bevbeatenbup and have actruck run over you andvbevleft to die. My question here is how are people like this allowed pets? Is there no law in yout country preventing scum of the earth from owning animals!!
This disgusting human needs prison and never be allowed near animals again. What kind of monster does this?? Please punish these abusers.
The maximum penalty in prison better be 20 years. Any shorter term & I’m sure there will be plenty of animal lovers waiting to apply more punishment to that cowardly POS.
LOCK UP THIS SICK AND EVIL MONSTER AND THROW AWAY THE KEY!!!
THIS POOR INNOCENT PUP DESERVES JUSTICE FOR ITS CRUEL TORTURE AND EVIL ABUSE FROM THIS SICK AND EVIL MONSTER!!
HE NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE AND KEPT AWAY FROM ALL
ANIMALS!!!!
Beware of Darkness you evil piece of shit. You need to be removed from civilized society. Your the abortion your mother wished she had you fkn oxygen thief!
I agree with American Girl, Rugg should have been aborted!
No animals EVER For this POS!!!! He needs to pay for the medical care of the animal and spend time in prison for a long time!!!!!
That bastard should be run over numerous times and left for dead in the middle of nowhere. Since that won’t happen, he must serve 5 years in prison with no early parole, pay all the veterinarian bills, pay a $400,000 fine, and be banned for life from owning, working with, or going near any animals ever again. Theres a witness. He is guilty & must be severly charged and sentenced
So incredibly sad WTF is wrong with people anyways – this ignorant f*cker Rugg’s just needs a bullet between his eyes – it isn’t worth the time and energy to even talk about this bastard – end his life the same way as he tried to do with this sweet dog. Jesus H Christ – everyday another loser and abuser.
