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]

There currently do not exist punishments appropriate to this kind of crime. No matter what his state of being,there can be no justifiable reason not to give every maximum penalty for what he knowingly did to a defenseless animal.This was deliberate, depraved, the absolute most extremely cruel infliction of suffering possible.Do not meet this with a slap on the wrist suspended sentence or silly $200.00 “fine”.That is worthless. This is a felony crime not a parking ticket. Please impart true justice to the absolute extent possible. Thank you.
So sad, my heart breaks for poor little Phoenix💔😭RIP Little One, you deserved so much better xxx
Someone needs to douse this fucker in gasoline and then set him on fire. He deserves the same fate as this poor innocent animal who didn’t deserve this horrible level of suffering.
I’m just angry, I don’t actually condone setting anyone on fire, no matter how much they deserve it, but he definitely needs to go to prison for a long time over this.
Oh, BS! It’s people like you that let these people do these evil things! There is NO reason for this evil SOB to be alive and on this earth to hurt other living creatures.
I’m with you Darren, hopefully someone in prison will set his A** on fire. …over and over, and over.
Amen
YOU SAY THAT NO ONE DESERVES TO BE SET ON FIRE!
Well, the innocent little kitten sure as hell didn’t deserve it! The bastard stood and watched whilst the little animal writhed and screamed in agony, wondering what was happening to it and WHY.
But it looks like you are saying,
“Oh well – Shit happens, he maybe didn’t mean to do it”! Well bullshit to what you say. Looks like you are actually trying to protect the psycho fucker!!
Incidentally, if this bastard WAS put in prison ( but with these useless laws would very much doubt it) He would just lap it up and get three square meals a day and plenty of leisure time to think about his heinous deeds and no doubt do it again when released!
Maybe you need a taste of the same as the kitten had to suffer then maybe realise just how much this fucking hurt.
A human could understand what was happening if thrown into a fire but a innocent kitten that had done nothing wrong, what the hell,It had no choice.
What you are saying is,
“We cannot burn him, it would not be a nice thing to do”.
BULLSHIT I say again, the bastard needs burning till his eyes ‘pop’.
As it seems you are siding with this shitbag I suggest you keep off this site as you are only antagonising the genuine, feelings of people who really care!!!
Agree 💯
I absolutely agree. I would love to be the person to do that.
Yes!! Post it on You Tube!!
KILL the fucking demented freak. He obviously is missing some human genes, and is disgusting twisted freak on two legs
KILL the fucking demented freak. He obviously is missing some human genes, and is disgusting twisted freak on two legs.
I hope he ends in jail and some inmate sets him on fire and burns him to death. That is the only fair punishment for vile demented fucking freak
This sub-human, evil bastard needs to spend the rest of his shitty life behind barr, or removed from the planet. There is no place in society for such evil.
do the same to him
Throw that crap human in the fire and watch him suffer…but leave him in there til he is done!
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!
Prosecute and incarcerate this EVIL SCUM COWARD. He needs to be burned 🔥 and left to suffer as this precious, innocent, helpless kitten died in horrific pain. This beautiful kitten needs JUSTICE for this brutal cruelty. Heartbreaking 💔
I can’t even put into words what I am feeling towards this lowlife sumbag.if only he could be executed i would pay to watch it. I also have a feeling it would be a very crowded room.
THROW THIS CRUELNIDIOT INTO THE FIRPIT AND RENDER ABSOLUTELY NO MEDICAL ATTENTION TO HOM FOR THE REST IF HIS MISERABLE LIFE!!! If this CRIEL IDIOT LIVED he should NEVER BE ALLOWED TO OQN, ADOPT, AND BE NEAR ANYMORE KITTENS AND CATS AS WELL AS ALL OTHER ANIMALS for restbof MISERABLE LIFE!!!!
Don’t hesitate to give this idiot what he deserves and burn him alive at the stake.
If this was done – animal abusers would take notice!!
Monstrous monstrous evil, heartbreaking and horrific, karma is theirs – I feel you, poor lost innocent souls; their blood on your souls
The abuse, torture & murder of the innocents
Some heartbreaks can never be unseen, some horrors never unheard – PLEASE GOD
And the universe weeps tears of blood
Your life as theirs, as their death
I would volunteer to do the same to this worthless piece of shit. Watching him burn would give me great satisfaction..Karma will find him and I hope it’s the worst pain he has ever felt. Wish we could rid the world of filth like him.
Amen to that 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Throw this POS into a really hot fire, and do not intervene, until he is nicely roasted!
This person needs to be sent to prison for life because next he will be burning a human. Poor little Phoenix kitten!!!!
There is not a severe enough law on the books to punish the vile person who did this. I hope he gets prison time and someone let’s his fellow inmates know what he did.
RICHARD LEE TYLER RUSSELL. Let the world know who he is and what he did.
Absolutely sick and so so sad for the little kitten!! I am so sorry little kitty! What a cutie! That sick evil man deserves to be thrown in jail, fined, pick trash like he is and never ever allowed to have pets or animals!!!!!
Put SCUMBAG LOWLIFE Richard Lee Tyler Russell behind bars!!!
Oh my god, the poor thing. RIP 🙁
Good old Richard Lee needs to be thrown into the fiery pits of Hell.
