Target: James Martin, District Attorney of Lehigh County, PA

Goal: Punish individual responsible for torturing and killing dog to fullest extent of law.

A Pennsylvania family made a horrifying discovery near their home. While they were out with their pet dog, they came upon the body of another canine laying close to a cornfield. This dog, described only as a tan mixed breed, bore signs of extreme mutilation and torture.

Authorities theorize this poor animal was viciously assaulted at another location before being dumped at the place where he was found. They are currently investigating the highly disturbing case. Any potential suspect could face seven years in prison.

Sign the petition below to urge prosecutors to seek the maximum felony charge when a suspect is identified.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear DA Martin,

At this point last year, the Lehigh Valley Humane Society had reported 160 cases of alleged animal cruelty. This year, that number has nearly doubled. Instances of apparent cruelty, from tethering in extreme weather to neglect, have risen dramatically. One of the most sickening incidents came recently in Catasauqua, where a young male dog’s mutilated body was discovered by a local family.

When authorities apprehend a suspect, please send an unmistakable signal that, in the words of a Lehigh Valley Humane Society officer, animal cruelty “is not going to be tolerated.” This officer claimed that a felony conviction for the crime could result in a prison sentence. Help protect this region’s most vulnerable living beings by making this legal possibility a reality.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]
