Target: Douglas County, Nebraska Attorney Donald W. Kleine
Goal: Give man prison sentence if it is proved he abandoned and starved his dog.
A dog named Tank was allegedly abandoned and starved for weeks before finally succumbing to death. Maurice Martin was arrested shortly afterwards on animal cruelty charges. He needs to spend time in prison if it is found he mistreated this innocent dog so other animals will be less likely to endure the same fate.
According to reports, Martin called the local humane society and said that there was a deceased dog in front of his home. The dog was allegedly emaciated and had many sores on his legs and hips. It was also reported that feces had been discovered inside Tank’s mouth. Parts of his body allegedly showed discoloration, including the paws and lips. A necropsy revealed that the fat and muscle had not been properly stored in Tanks’ body and that he also had pressure sores and frostbite.
Authorities claimed they eventually discovered that Tank belonged to Martin. Sign this petition to demand Tank receive justice if it is found he was neglected or abused by his owner.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear County Attorney Kleine,
Maurice Martin was arrested for animal cruelty after officers said he starved and neglected his dog Tank for weeks. He needs to receive a tough legal sentence if it is found this is the case to make it less likely other animals will suffer under his care.
Martin allegedly called the Nebraska Humane Society to report that there was a deceased dog lying outside of his residence. The dog was said to be extremely malnourished with wounds present throughout his body. Authorities claimed that most of Tank’s body was discolored, likely as a result of not being fed in weeks. It was additionally claimed that feces were found inside Tank’s mouth. Frostbite and pressure sores on his body were also identified by experts during a necropsy procedure. Although the necropsy showed that the dog died because of starvation, he was also thought to have been suffering from gastric ulceration and anemia due to the ulcers.
For these reasons, I demand you suggest Maurice receive a strict legal sentence for his actions if it is determined he abandoned or harmed his dog Tank in any way.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

RIP Tank. Was no one aware of the neglect of this dog? Anyone aware who ignores abuse is guilty. An eye for an eye: Maurice Martin must be treated the same as Tank.
My thoughts exactly, why would anyone ignore a dog clearly in distress and do nothing to help. Shame on them. As for this evil pos he deserves the harshest punishment hope he ends up in prison with animal lovers. This could have been avoided if he had surrendered Tank instead of letting him die an agonising death. RIP Tank you are in a better place, no more pain and abuse.
I totally agree! Lock that scumbag un a cage out in the elements and starve him to death!
Little Tank and all abused animals deserve better than this! Scumbag human monster needs to be beaten within an inch of his life and made to suffer starving in the cold until death puts him in hell!
Amen!! I totally agree. There is no good enough justice for poor Tank!! The people need to take this POS Maurice and cut both his hands and feet(one limb at a time) and very slowly so he suffers unbelievable pain and misery. Than cut off his privates so he can’t procreate!!! Than dump him in the woods so the animals can eat all his evil!!!!
This worthless cuntsucking piece of sewage needs to be relieved of oxygen. HANG HIM.
Hanging is too good for cruel useless scum like this. Better to use him in experiments that will at least save one innocent animal.
That does sound like a better idea!
We agree with you and the comments above…SO INFURIATING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This man must be put in jail. He Hates Animals. They’ll Take Care Of Him In Jail. This Poor Innocent Furbaby Suffered A Tortureous And Painful Death. Make Sure He’s Not Allowed Anymore Furbabies.
The inhuman bastard deserves the same treatment.
Put him in prison!! In feces and starve him in filth!!
So, He calls the authority after the dog died not before, to say he couldn’t or wouldn’t look after him??
There is no alleged. Stop. This Angel died a horrific death of starvation; frostbite due to a human. Tank was his name and this foul pos called to state that his Tank was dead. Sick beyond words and shows how twisted way too many people are. The planet should be left to the animals. It would be a lot better off.
What a demented piece of shit this one is, he deserves exactly what he gave that innocent dog. Jail, no food, no water and let the scum rot away. That’s justice for Tank.
I wonder if anything will be done about this. I’m so sick of animal abusers getting away with this. Maybe if laws were stronger and actually enforced it would send a message. I’m so damn tired of it.
A POS like Maurice Martin needs to be locked in a room with me or another animal lover for 5 minutes. After that, a long prison sentence would only become a second thought.
Poor Tank would still be alive if this monster had has just taken him to a shelter. He deserves the electric chair or at least prison time!
I am praying this monster feels the full arm of the law .. a small dog dies a slow and horrendous death because this B couldn’t be bothered to give Tank a basic meal and water … and then tried to lass it off as someone else’s… NO MERCY because he showed none… not an ounce of decency inthis creeps body… I wish you a lifetime of nightmares Maurice Martin
The fucker MURDERED THIS SWEET INNOCENT PUP! Put his ass in jail and forget to feed him! Piece of shit!
Godspeed sweet Tank!
Life long ban on owning pets and animals
If anyone deserves a long prison sentence, it is this POS animal abuser! Lock him up!!!
I agree with all the above comments. This was preventable….all that horrible man had to do was to take Tank to an animal shelter and surrender him. It would have saved the poor dogs life. This POS should suffer like poor little Tank suffered
This CRUEL & ABUSIVE IDDIOT NEEDS TO BE STARVE AND TIED TO A FENCE OR TREE WHERE HE CAN WATCH OTHERS EAT AND DRINK but NOT GIVEN FOOD AND ANYTHING INCLUDING WATER TO DRINK for the REST of HIS MISERABLE LIFE!!!!
Martin is a low down, pos liar trying to save his own butt from the consequences of the horrible neglect poor Tank suffered. He needs to suffer the most severe punishment you can give him. Tank’s suffered for a long time before he mercifully died.
THIS ASSHOLE NEEDS TO BE LOCKED IN A CAGE AND LEFT TO EAT HIS OWN FECES UNTIL HE DIES….PERIOD
The monster that did this should receive the same treatment. EXACTLY THE SAME!!!! THEY DESERVE TO DIE JUST LIKE THIS POOR SWEET DOG! JUSTICE!
Prayers 4 Tank & Rot in the prison cell u Sadistic POS!!!!!
