Kitten Reportedly Thrown Into Burning Fire Pit Deserves Justice

Target: Ray Whitley, District Attorney General of Summer County, TN

Goal: Prosecute man who allegedly fatally burned pet kitten to fullest extent.

“There was no way to even comprehend the amount of pain he was feeling.” This somber statement came from the rescue group who cared for Phoenix, a five-week-old kitten brought to the Tennessee-based organization. Phoenix had apparently suffered severe burns over much of his body, leaving him with extensive nerve damage. Despite the rescue’s best efforts, Phoenix tragically died from his injuries.

Local police reportedly confirmed that these horrific burns resulted from Phoenix being tossed into a fire pit. He is beleived to have suffered for days without medical intervention before his case was brought to authorities’ attention…precious time that could have been used to save his life. Richard Lee Tyler Russell, the man with whom Phoenix lived, has been charged with aggravated animal cruelty.

Sign the petition below to demand he receive maximum punishment if found guilty.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear District Attorney General Whitley,

Suspect Richard Lee Tyler Russell has an impending court date on charges of aggravated animal cruelty. He stands accused of throwing his pet kitten into a fire pit and leaving the animal to suffer from extensive injuries without medical aid. Although the kitten was later rescued thanks to a tip from a good Samaritan, he reportedly died in agony. The rescue organization who battled to save his life said of the tragedy: “his tiny body was just unable to fight off the horrible burns he was dealing with, plus the smoke inhalation.”

Both this organization, who witnessed the horrific effects firsthand, and the community at large are pleading for justice to be served. Please be vigilant in prosecuting this disturbing case and pursuing the most severe penalty.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

  2. Hope the DA’s office has the f**king brass balls and spine to put the blow torch to that POS who did that to the kitten’

      AMEN! Any MONSTER S.O.B., isn’t even a human. The DA needs to take that “thing” and tie him by his feet, over a deep burning pit, and let him drop, head first into that pit. There is a special place in HELL FOR A MONSTER LIKE THAT!!!

  3. This revolting thing of a man should be burnt alive for this, i feel so angry about this. Whatever he gets will never be enough for what he done to this poor tiny innocent kitten who should of been still with his mother. If he was still with his mam then what happened to the rest of them or did he get this kitten for the sole purpose of doing this evil thing ? I hate him more than words can say.

  4. Take this Son of a Bitch and throw him in a bonfire and walk away. that is after he has to pay for all the care and treatment that the rescue paid to try and save this poor innocent kittens life. Subhumans like him should not be able to live. RIP Phoeniz

    Your third world -hithole of a state refuses to deal with oxygen thieves

    Richard Lee Tyler Russell is a horrifying piece of shit!! OMG!! I rarely am shocked by evil anymore but this one caught me. Please kill Richard Lee Tyler Russell. Yes I do mean that. Someone kill him.

  9. This shit is going to keep happening to innocent animals until the laws get stronger & punishments fit the crimes!!
    RIP baby, ur in a better place! 💔

  10. What has happened to the human race that makes them want to do this crazy shit? Oh yes, lack of discipline as a child to learn right from wrong at a young age. Prosecute to the fullest extent and have the punishment the same as what was dealt to this poor little kitten.

  11. Tracy Smith says:

    This sick son of a bitch needs to be bound, gagged and thrown in a fire–that’s the only justice that needs to be served in this case. Phoenix did not deserve to be treated that way, nor did he deserve to die so young. Richard Lee Tyler Russell deserves to burn, not only on Earth, but in Hell as well. Only then will justice truly be served.

  12. Sandy Stavropoulos says:

    The disgusting, worthless savage who did this deserves the same fate….then needs to BURN IN HELL.

  13. BURN IN HELL YOU SADISTIC MONSTER!~!~!~!~!

  14. The piece of shit that did this needs to be put in a fire pit and leave them in there. An eye for an eye as they say

  15. Horrible…How is it possible to even do something this savage to a defenseless kitten. I pray that justice prevails. RIP to this poor kitty.

  16. May YOU burn in Hell for what you did to this kitten!

  17. Rose Coffey says:

    RIP Phoenix; I hope you are sitting in God’s lap right now getting petted and kissed. This Tyler jerk needs to be put in a psych ward; he’s going to pay for this one day in one way or the other.

  18. Richard Lee Tyler Russell Is a monster and should be treated as such. Lock this psychopath up and throw away the key. He is dangerous and clearly enjoys being cruel. He does not belong in society.

    This piece of shit deserves a cruel treatment and jail what garbage

  20. Cyndi Faulkner says:

    I cannot fathom how any human being can torture an animal like this. Yet there are judges, lawyers and others that allow these sick individuals to walk away with a slap on the wrist. Then months or years later, these same sick people torture and kill children or their spouses and the judges and lawyers are shocked. THESE SICKOS NEED TO BE EXTERMINATED! Taken out of the gene pool, not allowed to use our valuable worldly resources, not given jail sentences or free attorney services. There is something really wrong in their genetic make-up and they need to go away permanently. There is no fixing some people and this guy is one of them.
