Target: Montgomery County District Attorney Daryl D. Bailey
Goal: Seek maximum punishment for man accused of shooting dog with crossbow and dumping body in river.
A man was apparently caught on film tying his dog to a tree and shooting it with a crossbow. Reports of this brutal attack came to light after neighbors belonging to the local homeowner’s association claimed to have security footage of this heinous event.
Officials with the Montgomery Humane Society were called to the neighborhood, where they received testimony and viewed the footage that appeared to record the brutal killing.
The video apparently shows Charles Graves placing his large white and grey female husky mix on a tether.
“Mr. Graves returns to his vehicle, retrieves his crossbow, and shoots the dog,” the humane officer wrote in the report. “Then [he] begins to drag the dog to the top of the hill and pushed the dog into the [river].”
Although Graves was arrested, he is being held on only $2,500 bail.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear District Attorney Bailey,
According to reports, a man tied his dog to a tree, shot her with a crossbow, and dumped the body in a river. Reports of this brutal attack came to light after neighbors belonging to the local homeowner’s association claimed to have security footage of this heinous event.
Officials with the Montgomery Humane Society were called to the neighborhood, where they received testimony and viewed the footage that appeared to record the brutal killing.
According to Humane Society officials, after tying his dog up, “Mr. Graves returns to his vehicle, retrieves his crossbow, and shoots the dog. Then [he] begins to drag the dog to the top of the hill and pushed the dog into the [river].”
Although Graves was arrested, he is being held on only $2,500 bail.
Animal abuse is a horrific crime that is often under-prosecuted. We ask that you conduct a vigorous prosecution and seek the maximum penalty in this case.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

Tie up the jerk! Shoot the idiot with an arrow! Dump the moron in the ocean!
I felt sorry for this poor husky she deserved not to be treated that way. This idiot needs to be in jail for the rest of his life.
Agreed eye for an eye. Pathetic piece of shit
Real non human scum bag should be In prison for life please let me meet him
I agree
Time to get tough on animal abuse. High fines, jail time and a ban on pet ownership forever are in order.
This is the most heinous crime I have heard of yet. This POS should be in jail.
I agree with ALL of the above comments. Some people shouldn’t ever have pets!
There are two aspects of culpability here as with all animal abuse. There is the perp’who carries out crime and, there is the lack of law and how these crimes are dealt with which is propping up crime.
This is where AN EYE FOR AN EYE delivers more JUSTICE than our judicial system, where at best, only provides a very small punishment, if at all, for such a depraved, heinous torture of a beautiful animal! WHEN CAN WE COUNT ON LAWS AND DEDICATED PROSECUTORS TREATING THESE NON-HUMANS AS THE SLIME THEY ARE, SO WE CAN F******STOP SIGNING THESE PETITIONS????
I couldn’t have said it better Jeanne. I am so fucking sick and tired of animal abusers walking free when they should be charged with murder! Time to elect new leaders…
THANK GOD THIS MORON WAS VIDEOED!!!! Nothing our “judicial system” provides can begin to deliver justice to this mutant.
THESE ARE THE MUTANTS WHO DESERVE TO BE TREATED EXACTLTY AS THE POOR INOCENT ANIMALS THEY TORTURE. . . NOTHING SHORT OF THAT CAN BE CALLED ‘JUSTICE’!!!
Some people should never be allowed the blessing of having such a wonderful companion. This monster belongs behind bars – how can he so easily kill a family dog that loved you unconditionally??? Makes you wonder what else he is capable of.
***
This masochist will eventually do this to other animals, kids and family members until someone prosecutes him and imprisoned him.
I felt bad for this poor husky. She did not deserve this type of treatment. This idiot needs to be behind bars for the rest of his life. Animal abuse needs to stop.
Give me the name and address and I’ll cut him up live on Facebook
You and me both Steven. Charles Graves is an uneducated Piece of Shit that needs to be removed from the Gene Pool…
WHAT A MONSTER OF AN OWNER IS THIS? SUCH A BEAUTIFUL DOG. THIS IS A DOG OF MY DREAMS : A HUSKY DO THE SAME WITH THAT HIRRIBLE MAN. NO MERCY.
Low life scum-he needs an eternity in jail. That poor Angel was probably still alive when he threw him in the water!!!! Crossbow!!!! Judges and lawyers get a spine and start sentencing these devils!!!
Scum of the earth. Hopefully his gene pool isn’t out there..
The punishment should fit the crime,this violent white trash monster should be in prison! He is a danger to society.
MY GOD…what I have learned over the years of being a animal activist is it starts with the JUSTICE SYSTEM!!! Start making animal cruelty/abuse a FELONY!!! Never let anyone accused of such heinous acts own or even be around animals.
This person is a monster. He should not be free ever! He’s a danger to society and every alive creature.
He got ONLY 2500 bail ??? Is that a joke???
LOCK HIM UP for a long time!!! He should never be allowed to own any kind of alive creature!
