Target: Jim O’Neill, Forsyth County District Attorney
Goal: Pursue maximum penalty for man accused of horrific animal abuse.
A squirrel was sprayed with oil and set on fire, another squirrel was stomped to death, and a possum was drowned in a trash can, according to reports. Apparently, a 19-year-old man recorded himself performing these acts of abuse and then posted the videos online.
The alleged videos depicting the abuse were filmed between December 2018 and July 2019 but the arrest was just made.
While all of the reported acts are heinous, possibly the most grotesque abuse came when a squirrel was allegedly sprayed by the man with WD-40 and then lit on fire. The man is accused of allowing the squirrel to burn for two minutes and 56 seconds. This incident was also apparently filmed and shared on social media.
Another horrific act of abuse allegedly occurred when the man wrapped another squirrel in tape, placed the animal in a plastic bag, and then threw a large rock on the creature. To finish the job, the man allegedly stomped on the rock to further torture the animal.
Although the accused abuser was arrested, his bail was set at only $7,500.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear District Attorney Jim O’Neill,
Squirrels and a possum were reportedly subjected to horrific abuse in Forsyth County. According to reports, a man filmed himself engaging in a wide range of shocking instances of animal abuse. Reportedly, he then posted videos of this abuse on social media.
The details of these alleged crimes will shock the conscience. Allegedly, the man covered a squirrel in WD-40 and then filmed himself lighting the poor creature on fire. He also is reported to have taped a squirrel up, placed it in a bag, and then smashed the animal with a rock. Finally, he is also accused of drowning multiple animals in a trash can filled with water. All of this cruelty was then posted to social media, according to reports.
I ask that you please devote the resources necessary to fully prosecuting these alleged crimes. If you obtain a conviction, I also ask that you pursue the strictest punishment available.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

Without a doubt it is only a matter of time before he moves onto humans. Bundy and many other serial killers started this way. This monster must be locked up for as long as possible: this is a demon, not a human.
Why didn’t anyone do anything with this subhuman freak?! Is everyone waiting for this psycho fucking freak to up its game. This genetically defective reptilian subhuman should not be treated like a human.
Please send this MONSTER to a laboratory and have his skull cut and injected all sorts of chemicals to see how his brain is affected. We should use BASTARDS like this one and free the innocent, voiceless animals. When the tests finish, MURDER HIM DOUSING him with lighter -AS HE DID-, then sett him on fire, so he will have some of his own treat before living this planet.
Excellent idea
Tout à fait d’accord! votre idée est géniale!Je suis pour l’extermination des monstres!
That scum should be punished severely and set o fire to see how it feels
Animal abuse needs to be dealt with harsh punishment so it will stop! If we start with an eye for an eye for punishment, I bet this would stop it! Someone has to Protect innocent animals!
Future serial killer in the making. Lock him up before it’s too late for the safety of both humans and animals
This is not a human being this is a monster. And he will move on to humans next. He needs a long jail sentence. A hefty fine. And like for like punishment. A burn on the back is his hands. Can’t tape him and throw a rock on him so some other punishment will be needed and toss him in a vat of water. He needs to struggle some to know what he did was not funny. Do NOT let this slide. It will only get worse.
Man??? This is NOT a man!!! This is an evil, sadistic piece of sh*t. He deserves to be burned and stomped too. Maybe that little coward ba$tard learns not to hurt innocent creatures. I will gladly to it free of charge.
Lock his ass up NOW , mental institution or pentiteniary ..either before this serial killer in the making graduates to humans !!! Probably starting with kids…maybe Yours
After the 1st poor animal was tortured, why has this crazed idiot been allowed to proceed with more death and destruction? Protect the animals And the humans that will be next. Jail, mental institution…. whatever is needed to stop this butchery.
A person who commits this kind of cruelty should not be allowed near animals of any kind. A lifetime ban is needed because no animal is safe around him.
Mary, No ban will stop someone this sick, he went after squirrels & opossums for Gods sake, and bans usually affect having pets, so don’t believe banning him would do anything to stop that. I fear someone this sick is beyond help, I would certainly never trust them, but he does clearly need serious help, and should be in some kind of mental ward in prison!!
This jail bs needs to stop. We as individuals that love animals should take matters in our own hands and punish the individual the way they punished these beautiful animals. Cause we all know they will get no jail but a measly fine.
YES!!! Absolutely agree!
Please note that the alleged perpetrator is named Caleb Dewald and he is from Forsyth County in Winston-Salem North Carolina. That information was missing from the original posting to sign the petition. If you look at his history he has now been accused of six other counts of animal cruelty. This man is so terribly sick he should be institutionalized or jailed for the rest of his life
FUCK, FUCK, FUCK!! WHY DOES SOCIETY ALLOW INBRED PUSSY COWARDS LIKE THIS TO LIVE??!! WHY??!! FUCKING THE FUCKER DOWN, FACE UP, CUT HIM OPEN, POUR BLEACH INTO HIS STOMACH, SOW HIM UP, AND SET HIM ON FIRE………FROM HIS FEET UP!! AND THEN BEAT HIM WITH METAL PIPES BEFORE HE BREATHES HIS LAST BREATH!!! WHAT A FUCKING CUNTING INBRED!!
He is probably too wimpy to pick on anyone capable of defending themselves. We need to punish these you tube and other platforms that allow this. It should be a crime to publish illegal activities. Need to get some kind of group together to “investigate” these people and keep track of them.
Meet Americas next serial killer. This is how it starts, this guy is a sociopath. If no punished severely, it will only be a matter of time before he does this to a child. Please protect the innocent people and animals in society and lock him up for a very long time. Dangerous people like this should not be walking free amongst society.
This sick POS should be set on fire.
This sick POS should be set on fire. People like this don’t get better. They just get worse.
Just take this piece of shit out back and put a bullet in his head before he abuses any more animals and before he picks a human target. Get him the f out of here
Whoever did this kill them in the most horrific and most painful way possible!!!
