Target: Dave Sunday, District Attorney of York County, PA
Goal: Seek stronger charges and penalties against accused animal abusers and killers.
A miniature dachshund suffers broken ribs and a collapsed lung. A man pleads guilty to beating his pet dog with a baton. A suspect in a different case pleads no contest to shooting his pet dog in the face. These horrific crimes have two commonalities. They all took place in York County, Pennsylvania. And not one of the guilty parties was sentenced to a day in jail.
All three of the guilty or no contest pleas in these aggravated animal cruelty cases resulted in probation. While some of the suspects were prohibited from contact with pets for a period of time, none of them received the kind of penalty that would have really mattered. In fact, prosecutors seemed to go out of their way to drop more severe charges that may have resulted in jail or prison time.
Sign the petition below to demand these legal leaders stop giving violent animal abusers an easy pass.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Mr. Sunday,
A local newspaper article recently confirmed that cases of animal cruelty are significantly on the rise in York County. With the lax approach the legal system is seemingly taking toward these crimes, it seems little wonder that abusers are not apparently worried about a future behind bars. Within the past several months, the York County prosecutor’s office has let a man who admitted to beating his dog with a baton, a man who pleaded no contest to shooting his dog in the face, and a man accused of giving his dog a collapsed lung and broken ribs walk free with legal slaps on the wrist.
Please stop giving out plea and probation deals to violent criminals, as if they are candy. The next time they appear before you, it may be for an even bigger tragedy that you could have prevented.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

They deserve the same treatment , what a sick bastard
Too bad the punishment can’t fit the crime. These helpless animals deserve justice.
Sick persons who harmed this dog. They deserve the same punishment.
This terrorist has to go to jail, where rather bad men stay, who have to lose nothing, but love and adore animals. This ticking bomb has to be separated for the rest of his insane life1
Sick persons who harmed this dog. They deserve the same treatment and a full live in jail.
Horrific
The problem is the criminal “justice” system has blood on their hands. The next time it will be a child. Because of the utter failure of the court system, we cannot rely on them to deliver justice. People need to start seeking out the scum that commit these acts and deliver real justice on their own, until that happens, things will never change.
Completely agree Mark! Countless study after study shows no remorse between beating an animal and then moving on to a child and adults.
I agree. Beat the one asshole to death and shoot the other asshole in the face.
There should be no difference between beating a helpless defenseless silent animal versus a human!! What’s wrong with people?! I’d love to beat these same guys and oops just get a slap on the wrist. Disgusting POS!! Stupid prosecutors need to have their bar licenses revoked!!
I totally agree with you Jennifer!
This is the Blind leading the blind here! All 3 bitches here need a beating of a lifetime!👊👊👊 come on NY pull it together! We need to start putting pitbulls in our justice system, Not lap dogs!
Not N.Y. PA. Hurt an animal where i live? I guarantee you the pos will be in jail. One pos who put stray cat on fire in Brooklyn got RECORD 7 YEARS and served all 7.
I don’t want to sign 100’s of petitions, I want to sign this one, I want to know what I am signing for……..I love animals & I want to help them. There are some sick peple out there that should be punished for hurting animals, if they can do this to animals they are capable of doing this to people!!!!
I agree with Mark!!
Well if it was me I’d beat the one asshole to death and shoot the other asshole in the face.
It sickens me how this continues and how these ABSOLUTE POS individuals are still walking around in our society. This is abuse and should be treated as your would abuse of a human. These sick sub humans DO NOT BELONG IN SOCIETY. They belong locked up. ALL states need to stand up for animals and protect them and NOT TOLERATE ANY INDIVIDUAL HARMING AN ANIMAL.
OMG! THESE ARE VIOLENT CRIMINALS AND THEY GOT OFF WITH LITTLE SLAPS ON THE WRIST! THE LEGAL SYSTEM IS NOT NOT NOT DOING ITS JOB. FIRE THE JUDGE WHO PASSED THESE LAX PENALTIES.
ANIMALS SHOULD HAVE RIGHTS LIKE PEOPLE. THESE VIOLENT OFFENDERS WILL NEED TO STAY IN JAIL A LONG WHILE OR THEY WILL REOFFEND. THAT IS THE MESSAGE THAT THEY ARE GETTING FROM THE LAME LAX LEGAL SYSTEM!
IT IS YOUR JOB TO PROTECT ANIMALS ALSO!!!! DO YOUR JOB OR LOSE IT. THE LEGAL SYSTEM SHOULD ONLY HIRE PEOPLE THAT CARE ABOUT ANIMALS AS MUCH AS PEOPLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
THIS IS SO ENRAGING….!
Okay if things are on the rise in New York City I guarantee you they’re on the rise other places too and our punishments are not doing any justice so we need to adopt the eye for an eye so whatever treatment they give the dog or the cat they’re going to get the same only x 100 and they don’t need to be living on here because their habitual offenders they won’t be rehabilitated why are we acting and saying about this anymore we need to change the laws now
This is not New York. Pennsylvania.
Jail this Scum loser
These dogs deserve justice. These pieces of shit needs to be prosecuted for what they did. That’s why this still goes on. People don’t get harsh penalties for hurting animals. This will never stop. The same thing should happen to these ass holes. The laws need to be changed to protect animals better or us animal lovers should get together and handle it ourselves.
If justice does nothing we must do something, we must spread the name of these monsters everywhere so that they never dare to leave their homes again and are banished from society, they deserve the death penalty!
Give them to a crowd. Beat them till their bones break, soot thd onr in thd face snd lrave them for dead.
Hang the cunts using hooks and slide them down a pit only big enough to fit them. Leave the assholes there.
Pennsylvania huh? Well there ya go. I’m so sick of these crazy people. They’ll probably elect these guys into some local office because they’re “strong men.”
For gods sake sterilise the mentally subnormal.
