Target: Nye County District Attorney Chris Arabia
Goal: Seek justice for dogs apparently abandoned at dump and poisoned with anti-freeze.
A dog was recently found abandoned at a dump. The animal had been left there to die, apparently by his owner, Apolonio Aniceto of Pahrump, Nevada, aged 85. Concerned citizens found and rescued the suffering animal. When authorities were notified, they reportedly identified the dog’s owner as being Aniceto, after receiving an anonymous tip from another citizen.
When authorities arrived at Aniceto’s house, they reportedly discovered another suffering dog on the premises. Unfortunately, this second dog was apparently “in bad shape and suffering some sort of unknown medical issue.”
Authorities transported the second dog to the veterinarian, where it was discovered that the animal was apparently suffering from anti-freeze poisoning. At this point, it was decided that euthanization of the animal would be the most humane action.
Aniceto has been arrested and is facing felony animal abuse charges.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Nye County District Attorney Chris Arabia,
A dog was recently found abandoned at a dump in your jurisdiction. The poor creature had apparently been left there to die. The Sheriff’s Office arrested Apolonio Aniceto of Pahrump, Nevada, aged 85, after they discovered another abused dog on his property. That animal reportedly was suffering from anti-freeze poisoning.
Animal abuse is always a serious crime, but in this case, it is particularly heinous. This man is accused of abandoning one dog to die, and possibly poisoning another dog with anti-freeze. We ask that you pursue this case with great vigor and seek a punishment that fits the crime.
Sincerely, [Your Name Here]

The same should be done to him
NOTHING will happen to this pos.
TOTALLY AGREE
It’s hard to argue “mental health” issues such as dementia when this man’s actions were calculating, apparently replicated and deliberate.
I said the same exact thing
Cruelty to animals is out of control. Including those that have far to many cats or dogs in their homes this gets to be a health problem for those that live in this environment and certainly lack of care to the animals. Isn’t there a law that limits the amount of animals a household can have? If there isn’t there should be.
Yes here in Pahrump we do have such laws but it does not apply in this case as the number of animals he had doesn’t come into play here. Cruelty to animals is a felony here as well and there are signs posted about this all over town.

An eye for an eye!!!!!!!!!!
Make this ass pay for all expenses to save the one dog, then give the man antifreeze, make him drink it and take him to the dump
Sadly both dogs passed away but I agree he should be made to pay all the expenses. Keep him in jail, make him work every single day in prison at a job and make him give every single penny he earns/gets “put on his books” to the vet that these poor pups were taken to. Also make it so that the only thing he get to drink is antifreeze, toilet water or his own piss. That would be justice
Force feed this scumbag with anti-freeze and let him die in agony………….
T A means Total Ass
They want to arrest people for helping Animals and let people go unpunished for abusing Animals.
I agree.
Why?? With other options available. Put him in prison and make it known to possibly stop others from causing such cruelty and torture.
What? Where? Why?
Where are w the education and information present I order to prosecute these individuals? Why is it always animal – lovers who end up giving charity from half – way across the world?
EVEN THAT MONSTER OF AN OWNER IS 85 HE SHOULD KNOW BETTER. GIVE HIM ALSO AS A PUNISHMENT ANTI FREEZE TO DRINK. THAT IS A PROPER PUNISHMENT. POOR DOG.
What a horrible creep. These type of monsters need to be punished; it is a shame that most of them are not. Sad; just sad what gets unpunished in our world.
He’s 85? Abandon him in the dump! Let him live there. See how long he survives! I give him a couple months.
MONSTER, HE WILL SUFFER IN HELL !!!!
This pos needs to rot in a jail cell. Never to see light of day. Why do these bastards always get away with it?
This garbage man is real shit hope they give him what he deserves
Jail is too good for this pos-he needs to be given antifreeze and taken to a dump to die where he belongs!!!
I agree.
I certainly believe in an eye for an eye, so if this piece of shit is guilty he needs to receive the same treatment. That’s what I call justice for the innocent animals.
This scumbag lowlife needs to be beaten down and thrown behind bars to be sodomized daily. DO NOT allow this POS to ever be near an animal again!
PROSECUTE THAT SCUMBAG TO THE FULL EXTENT OF THE LAW AND HOPEFULLY SOMEONE WILL FEED ANTIFREEZE TO HIM. HE SHOULD SUFFER THE SAME FATE AS THESE INNOCENT DOGS. IF HE WAS DECENT HE WOULD HAVE BROUGHT HIS DOGS TO A NON KILL SHELTER TO GIVE THEM A 2ND CHANCE. THIS PIECE OF SHIT DESERVES TO SUFFER.
