Target: Todd Spitzer, District Attorney of Orange County, CA
Goal: Seek full penalty against man accused of assaulting pet dog if he is found guilty.
A dog named Steeler suffered serious trauma when he was allegedly assaulted by the person who should have been protecting and caring for him. The dog became the subject of a viral video reportedly showing Steeler being repeatedly punched and kicked in a hallway. A video doorbell captured the apparent act of cruelty.
Suspect Albert Abad, Steeler’s caretaker, surrendered the dog and then surrendered himself to police. Steeler has since been examined and treated by veterinary professionals. In response to Abad’s detention, the local district attorney released the following statement: “as a result of excellent police work, the Orange County District Attorney’s Office will prosecute this abuser to the fullest extent of the law, and we will send a strong message that the abuse of animals will not be tolerated.”
Sign the petition below to hold the DA to this vow.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear DA Spitzer,
When a man was captured on a video doorbell allegedly beating his pet dog, public outrage helped raise awareness and lead to an eventual arrest. At the time of Albert Abad’s surrender to authorities, you pledged that he would be prosecuted to the fullest extent. You also stressed that animal cruelty will not be tolerated within your jurisdiction.
Please stay vigilant in this case, honor your promises, and send a decisive message about the ongoing threat of animal abuse in America.
Sincerely.
[Your Name Here]

I agree with the comment about the film telling the true story about Steeler’s owner! Lock owner away and throw away the key!! He probably kicks kids and wife too!
Yes, this country needs to crack down on animal abusers as it is out of control and our weak judges and justice system let these demented low life’s out without consequences. Why do innocent animals have to suffer at the hands of subhuman scum? These pathetic abusers will continue their evil ways and be a threat to society. Lock them up and throw the key away. End of story, it’s that simple.
GOD, WHAT I’D GIVE TO DEAL WITH THESE MUTANTS DIRECTLY!!!! I’M SICK TO DEATH OF WATCHING THEM WALK ON THE MOST EGREGIOUS ANIMAL ABUSE WHEN WE f****** HAVE THEM ON VIDEO!!!!!!!
I’m with ypu on this!!!
Totally agree with you. In fact, I’d help you deal with these problems!
We definitely have a no-justice system in this country – I say to hand them over to animal lovers/protectors and let us administer true justice!
Nothing they do to this wast of skin is going to be enough, As long as light sentences are carried out on animal abusers, the abuse will continue. there is no cure for people who carry out this sort of act. Death. and that is too kind.
Such animal torture and abuse to an innocent animal by a sadistic person. He definitely needs prison time and not owning animals for life. I hope that beautiful dog can be rehabilitated and find a loving home. Animal torturers can never change. They will just be more careful about there abuse.

Several posters said to post a picture of him on Facebook and shame him. Now, that’s a real joke. There is no way in hell that you can shame a mother-fucker like him. If he saw a picture of himself on Facebook, he would just laugh about it. The answer for this bastard is just shoot the mother-fucker in the head and lay him out in a field naked and let the buzzards pick his worthless ass clean. Then, take his skeleton and run it up a flagpole with a sign around his neck saying that “this is what is going to happen to any worthless mother-fucker that hurts or kills any animal”. Problem solved. No more dogs will suffer under this worthless bastard’s so-called care. But getting this implemented would be like an ant picking up an elephant. Too many bleeding-hearts out there that would scream their lungs out wanting the person that eliminated this bastard to get the death penalty. Yet they come on here talking how he should get jail time, a big fine and never to own animals again. This shit hasn’t worked in the past and will not work in the future. The only thing that low-life bastards that hurt animals understand is extreme pain or fear running thru their minds right before a man with a gun pointed at their heads pulls the trigger and blows their brains out. Which is exactly what these animal abusers deserve. Don’t wait for the law to do shit because they won’t. It’s been proven too many times in the past.
I agree with you. The guy is a worthless POS and I’d like to be put in a room with him for about an hour and inflict ungodly pain on him.
I will help you!!! deserve to severely punished….
love that idea
I agree with every word you said !!
” JUSTICE” Served swiftly and HARSHLY is all they would understand.
My thoughts exactly.
If enough of us could get fired up to sort these bastards then it really would be a good start.
It will happen because normal people will eventually take a stand against these psycho fuckers and make the punishment fit the crime.
All power to anyone or any group with the same thoughts and feelings!
PROSECUTE THIS SCUMBAG TO THE FULL EXTENT OF THE LAW AND HOPEFULLY SOMEONE WILL BEAT THE HELL OF HIM.
This vile animal abusing scumbag requires instigation of the death penalty and nothing less. A slow and agonizing extermination for this mentally deranged cretin is essential! OH YES!!!!
There is something wrong with people who think other normal people like watching theses disgusting videos of innocent animals being abused! Don’t know why theses videos aren’t screened before being put on social & turned in to police!
This crap happens because ppl in law enforcement either ignore it or gettin paid under the table to keep their mouths shut😡😡😡
There is only one punishment for this type of ‘people’. To sodomize him publicly!!!
Beat this piece of shit to death!!!
ok please follow through with maximum charges! Fine him and take Steeler away from him. Ban him for life from other animals.
There should always be a ZeRO tolerance policy in place….which has to be enforced!
Please find Steeler a happy new forever home! God’s speed to a full recovery for this sweet little boy!
Im eith all the commentators on yhis!!!
I really hope that the local district attorney means what he says. I am so sick of reading about stories like this with no consequences to the abusers.
Lock this sadistic evil disgusting POS away For the Max felony sentence or longer. He should never be allowed to live in society. He is a waste of our oxygen.
I hate these people
THIS KIND OF “EVIL MUST BE STOPPED” !!! VERY DANGEROUS BEING…..
MUST BE LOCKED UP THROW AWAY THE KEY…..
SHAME ON YOU SICK BASTARDS.
POOR DOG SO BEAUTYFUL♡♡♡♡
LOVE FOR YOU!!
