33 Dogs and Two Children Reportedly Found With Guns, Drugs, Dog-Fighting Equipment, and No Food Deserve Justice

Target: State Attorney, Bruce Bartlett, Pinellas and Pasco Counties
Goal: Prosecute man accused of abusing 33 pit bulls and two children to the fullest extent of the law.

Thirty-three pit bulls, including multiple puppies, and two children, were reportedly rescued from a terrifying home that had guns, drugs, and no food. The man accused of this horrible abuse has been arrested and is facing possible prosecution. We are asking the prosecutor to pursue the maximum penalty in this case.

According to reports, law enforcement responded to the man’s home after they received a complaint about dogs barking at the residence. When deputies arrived at the home, they reportedly discovered countless handmade kennels in the backyard, dog-fighting equipment, guns, ammo, and cocaine. And what they didn’t find, apparently, was food for the children.

The two children, both younger than 14, were apparently in the home without food or supplies. Authorities confiscated all of the dogs, placed the children in protective services, and arrested the man suspected to be responsible for this alleged abuse.

The suspect has been charged with three dozen crimes, including felony child neglect, aggravated cruelty to animals, animal cruelty, cocaine possession and felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition. Unfortunately, bail was set at $157,000, but so far, the accused has been unable to post it. Justice must be served in this case.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear State Attorney, Bruce Bartlett,

A man was recently arrested in your jurisdiction for the alleged abuse of 33 dogs and 2 children. According to reports, deputies responded to the man’s house after they received a noise complaint. Upon investigation, they apparently discovered evidence of dog-fighting, illegal weapons and drugs, and two children without food or supplies.

If the above allegations are true, this man should face a very lengthy prison sentence. Animal abuse and child abuse are some of the most serious crimes, and are often taken too lightly by prosecuting attorneys. Don’t allow this man to get away with these alleged crimes. Please seek the maximum penalty in this case.

Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

    To the State Attorney, Bruce Bartlett:

    Let him rot in a cell for the duration of his miserable existence – Animal abuse and child abuse are some of the most serious crimes which should be taken into consideration when dictating a sentence and he doesn’t deserve any better!

    Please accept my deepest gratitude.

    The children & dogs deserve so much better, this man needs to be jailed for a long time. Kids & animals are innocent & can not speak for themselves so we have to.

    • very well sad Terri….my heart is with the children and the innocent puppies….may this man pay for this crime a very long time and never be allowed to even touch dogs or kids ever again

  4. To the State Attorney, Bruce Bartlett:
    Child abuse and animal abuse are the most shocking crimes.
    This perpetrator must spend many year behind bars. He must never be allowed to own animals again. His kids should be placed at a responsible an loving foster family.
    MAX JAIL!

  5. It’s a sad indictment when the public have to raise petitions to ask for the right penalties to be given in such circumstances. How bad do things have to get for the law to get into gear and what it’s supposed to.

  6. there is no rehabiliation for scum bags like this. Heartless and clueless. Take him off the planet!

  7. Michelle Stewart says:

    That bastard deserves to be executed. He is guilty. The children and all the dogs/puppies must never be returned to him. I really hope someone in prison kills him

    • Michelle Stewart – I definately agree with your comment.
      “That bastard deserves to be executed. He is guilty. The children and all the dogs/puppies must never be
      That lowlife psychopathic vile and evil monster bastard must be eradicated from the Planet. If jailed which must happen I pray all the inmates torture this vile and evil psycho monster from hell to death. Burn in hell you lowlife pos.

    FIRST…the cruel abusers need to be starved…..NO EXCEPTIONS… Then the children and animals need to be rescued, fed and have medical appointments. Dog fighting and all other horrors to animals need to be severely punished = the abusers need to be removed from society forever… IMO

  9. Cocaine in the ‘home’ but no food. Why am I not surprised?

  10. William Foreman says:

    Ukraine never give up.
    Never give in.
    Fight !!!!

  11. Release this piece of shits name!!!
    I hope he rots in hell!!!

      According to investigators, the dogs appeared to be abused and neglected, so they took Coley into custody. After getting a search warrant for Coley’s property and home, Pinellas County Animal Services seized 33 pit bull terriers of various ages.2 days ago From News Article

    • Absolutely why are they not releasing his name!!

  12. Stephanie Geyser says:

    Assuming this piece of garbage is the father of the 2 kids, it’s a pity that he was ever allowed to breed his sperm. And odd that he found a willing woman to accept his sperm into her body. Unfortunately, he is unlikely to receive any punishment for the animal abuse charges. So castration would be an ideal punishment – one which he will remember for the rest of his life. And it will also ensure that he won’t breed more of his type again.

  13. WHAT A MONSTER IS THIS????? THERE IS NO NAME FOR SUCH A BEAST. TREAT HIM THE SAME WAY FOR YEAR AS HE DID TO THOSE POOR DOGS.

  14. Animal abuse, child abuse! What more does it take to prosecute this man to the fullest extent. Prison time, no owning animals for the rest of his life and the children put in foster care. He has no love for animals or children.

  15. This CRUEL idiot should NEVER BE ALLOWED TO OWN, ADOPT, AND/OR BE NEAR ANY MORE PUPPIES, DOGS, & CHILDREN for the rest of his MISERABLE LIFE!!!!!!

    Severe punishment must be served to that evil demon being!! Poor innocent children an animals suffered horrible horrible treatment !! Soo very very sad!!

  17. Elease M. Bradford says:

    The piece of slime who abandoned and neglected those two children and 33 fur babies needs to be punished to the fullest extent of the law. His behavior is irresponsible and inexcusable.

  18. Dog Fighting is never okay…let alone with children. guns, drugs and no food.

  19. Jacqueline A says:

    Why not just wipe this waste of oxygen off the earth!!

  20. CRIMES AGAINST ANIMALS MUST be taken SERIOUSLY — we MUST NOT be LAX — PUNISHMENTS & PENALTIES MUST be SEVERE – otherwise, ABUSERS & KILLERS will continue — Only depraved sadistic MONSTERS engage in this horror — Dog Fighting is abhorrently cruel, unconscionable, merciless and immoral – we must force SICKOS to STOP this evil ABUSE of DOGS — throw IDIOT in Prison & throw away the key — We cannot allow such torment & suffering to Children and Animals – Do NOT let PSYCHO get away with it.
