Elderly Yorkie Reportedly Killed on Camera Deserves Justice

Target: Lisa Smittcamp, District Attorney of Fresno County, CA

Goal: Prosecute man accused of killing elderly dog to the fullest extent.

A beloved 16-year-old family dog lost his life in an alleged act of animal cruelty. Surveillance footage apparently captured the dog, named Artie, being grabbed by a man outside of the property where the animal lived. The video seems to show the man moving away from the camera and returning a short time later with the now-deceased dog, whom he puts in a garbage can and leaves. Authorities reportedly identified the suspect as Aaron Cumpton, who now faces animal cruelty charges.

While Cumpton has been barred from unsupervised contact with animals, he was not jailed while he awaited legal proceedings. He has pled not guilty, despite the video evidence seemingly implicating him. This suspect also now faces accusations that he killed another pet dog while house-sitting for a different family. The dog in the separate case had apparently sustained severe and ultimately lethal neck injuries under Cumpton’s care.

This possible serial animal abuser must be held accountable. He faces up to three years of jail time. Sign the petition below to ensure he receives maximum punishment if found guilty.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear Ms. Smittcamp,

A camera outside a family’s home captured a horrific incident in which a man seemingly brutally killed the family’s pet dog and then disposed of the body like trash. Authorities believe they have the man, Aaron Cumpton, caught in the video. Now, the legal system must do its job.

According to an acquaintance, Cumpton may very well have committed a similar offense of deadly animal cruelty on at least one other occasion. Please vet these new accusations and consider further charges if they prove credible. Most importantly, please pursue a penalty that will ensure this alleged abuser never has the opportunity to harm another living being.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

  2. Totally unacceptable , this person needs a punishment and catching

    • THST LOAD OF CRAP IS is NO PERSON!!
      THAT DEVIL IS PURE TRASH
      Nothing us more INNOCENT AND LOVING LIKE OUR PRECIOUS ANIMALS..if anyone can’t see that then they are not worthy to be on this earth.

  3. This guy should be put out if his misery, hopefully somebody knows him and takes action. The courts are a joke and nothing will happen to him. It’s time people stand up and seek justice themselves.

  4. This vile sub human bastard needs executing!! The justice system is beyond a joke and the morons responsible for punishing these murdering filth are complicit when they do nothing!! This is murder and the murderers should be off the streets forever. Period!!

    This is NOT humanely having to have a sick dying animal to sleep to avoid great suffering this is sadistic murder and we need to get together and DEMAND the death penalty for evil vicious killers as this! It would prevent him from ever doing it again I can tell you now! We praise foreign countries and are told we have to respect their culture…well in those countries they kill you for just stealing their pet! So why not do that here. After all if no one’s better then anyone else how can executing the sadist who murdered this poor little dog be wrong?!

  6. Snap this mother fuckers neck!!!

  7. Three years jail time is not enough. He is liable to move on from innocent animals to children. Please don’t let this person get away with a slap on the wrist.

    I agree with Tammy Herron about the murderer’s neck, but I have to also say Why the HELL was an elderly tiny dog left out in the yard alone? Don’t people understand how vulnerable they are? The occupants clearly were out when it happened and they left him alone and defenceless. A large part of the blame has to be borne by them.

  9. Lock up lowlife scumbag dress wearing Aaron Cumpton!!!! Put this lowlife behind bars where he will be sodomized daily please!

  10. The owners are partially responsible! Why would ANYONE leave a little dog outside to become prey to other wildlife and or in this case a POS mother fucker! They should never own another pet! I hope the ghetto trash monster that KILLED POOR HELPLESS ARCHIE DIES A HORRIFIC DEATH!

    He deserves jail time for murdering that dog

  12. Raymond Stevens says:

    The scum that did this should be killed, slowly.

  13. Barbara Garrison says:

    Aaron Compton is the one who should be thrown in the garbage. When is our society going to wake up and address the serious nature of animal cruelty? These monsters have mental issues that result in animal cruelty cases, but it doesn’t stop there. These criminals, sick, twisted psychotic individuals will elevate their crimes against human beings. The authorities still look at animal cruelty as isolated and nonrelated to other violent crimes. Wake up!!!!! Stop being lazy and stupid!!!!

  14. Pamela Chattergoon says:

    Ok Fresno he’s in your area. Take him out.

  15. What a evil sick POS. First off: break every bone in his worthless fucking body. Castrate the bastard (because we don’t need more of him running around.) Then put him in prison .. so he can receive daily asshole widening from the other inmates.

  16. Jacqueline - “throw him to sharks” says:

    Give him a neck maneuver he won’t forget! I saw the video! By accident. Artie, was a friendly happy dog wagging his tail, then the Psyco picks him up and returns with him dead??!!

  17. Aaron Cumpton Must be killed. Period. No time in jail. This subhuman is a danger to all. One less creepnin this worls saves many animals and people.

  18. A danger to children and society in general. Pathetic POS — https://abc30.com/fresno-animal-death-case/11492938/
