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]

What in the hell demon would drive a person to do something as malicious and vicious as this to any living thing? I’ll never understand sicko’s like this.
I agree
OMG!!! THAT “CRUEL EVIL DEMON” DESERVES THE SAME TREATMENT PERFECT PUNISHMENT ,,,, EYE FOR AN EYE !!!
HE’S SUBHUMAN.
I don’t care what his excuse is, this POS needs to go to jail. Get him out of our society.
I agree
May all those who abuse torture or neglect animals suffer a slow horrible painful death before they rot in hell !
agree
Absolutely yes!!
WHAT THE HELL IS WRONG WITH HIM
PUT THE LOW LIFE PIECE OF SHIT IN JAIL AND LET THE PRISONERS DO THE SAME TO HIM.
LOW LIFE PIECE OF SHIT DOESNT DESERVE TO BREATHE THE SAME AIR.
I agree
Please lock up scumbag lowlife Charles Graves for a long time! Make this scumbag be an example of what happens when someone murders a dog.
FRY THIS EVIL, SCUM-SUCKING CUNT!!!!!!!!
I am so fucking sick and tired of all these slaps-on-the-wrist “punishments”. So goddamn laughable and sad all at the same time. This is why horrific shit perpetuates. Pisses me off to NO end.
I totally agree with you!!
AGREE.
Who decided only HUMAN lives deserve justice? I have NEVER understood the logic of this. ALL living beings suffer exactly the same and most animals do not act out of meanness,. Only humans do that. Animal abusers almost always escalate to people – not that harming animals isn’t bad enough. A half-assed punishment does nothing to deter these sickos.
Exactly!! Eye for an Eye.
What the hell, only $2,500 in bail?? This freaking monster deserves the death penalty for the cold blooded murder of an innocent animal.
I agree he should receive the same torturous treatment he inflicted on that beautiful dog. He doesn’t deserve to live. He took an innocent life. I hope this dog gets the justice she deserves. God says Vengeance is His.
WE DEFINITELY SIGNED THIS HORRIFIC PETITON, THAT HAPPENED IN MONTGOMERY, MARYLAND AND COMMENTED ON PAGE 4.

UN PHUCIKIN REAL!!!!

Thank you for posting this other case as well – I am a supporter of IDA and the more this is shared, the better.
These wretched bastards need to start getting SERIOUS punishments. Courts generally are a huge disappointment in this. Frankly, this is why I personally am in favor of vigilante justice – a fine and community service is not enough for the brutalilty this scum dishes out to harmless loving animals. This human garbage needs to be quietly removed and gotten rid of permanently. With an overpopulation of almost 9 billion humans, most of which are stupid and worthless, the planet doesn’t need crap like this.
THIS IS SO SICK SAD AND JUST PURE EVIL!!!! THIS SICK MURDERER MONSTER DESERVES THE SAME TREATMENT HE DID TO THIS POOR INNOCENT HUSKY!!! HE IS AN EVIL SICKO WHO HAS TO BE LOCKED UP AND KEPT AWAY FROM ALL ANIMALS AND PEOPLE NOT TO BE TRUSTED HE WILL NOT STOP!!!!
Take this cowardly bastard do the same to him, then dump him in a Gator Pitt. Then justice would be served.
Agree all comments. Shoot this cunt with bow and leave him die slow. Justice needs to die. Whats wrong with the laws and Countries.
These arrogant ‘non caring’ torturing bastards must be stopped!
Not sure if we have them now but years back especially in the west there were groups called ‘posse’s’.
This was or is, a group of people all in the same mind.
Posse’s, Vigilante’s , Mob rule. All the same with the mindset.
It is the only way that these animal torturing and abusing bastards are going to be stopped.
The stupid pussyfooting law and waste of time washed out useless bloody Judges cannot be bothered. To them they are just ‘non feeling’ animals who do not matter!
The saying goes, ‘ the law is an ass’ but this is just total disrespect to this gentle animal.
We really are going to have to seriously get groups together to put a stop to these murdering torturing fuckers who enjoy doing what they do!
Everyone on this petition knows what they would like to do, and WOULD DO to these psycho, sikko tossers if they had the chance!
Believe me, this IS going to happen and these wankers will need to be looking over their shoulders all the time as there is only so much normal living people will take.
It would also ‘shake up’ the idiot law and justice ( what justice) system appertaining to animal rights. Then they might, just might begin to realise that people are not going to stand for this and get off of their fat arses and do what they should be doing anyway.
In the meantime, I say again, absolute power to any animal rights groups who find these bastards and deal them the same treatment.
A painful death to all these Shitbags who torture any animal.
Bastards all of them!
Wish somebody would do the same to this human garbage.
The only punishment suitable for this piece of human trash is death. I need say no more.
There is proof as to what that bastard did. He must serve 15 years in prison with no early parole, pay a $500,000 fine, and be banned for life from owning or going near any animals ever again. Animal felony cruelty laws & punishment must be changed all over the world to be 1000% harsher. Make the punishment so severe that maybe people might think twice about abusing or killing animals. Real justice would be to shoot that bastard in the head with a crossbow and throw his body into the river.
DEATH PENALTY for ALL animal-torturers and animal-abusers. No animal shall be sadistically abused by dehumanized and desensitized psychopathic scum. ALL animal-abusing sadists must be EUTHANIZED to set an example. DEATH PENALTY is the only adequate punishment for this hellish scumbag! He must be forbidden from coming near animals ever again!
They should do the same thing to them. What such a piece of shit of a human being. They are evil and deserve judt that to them. God will not have mercy on their soul. He created such a beautiful animal to give ud the true unconditional love and that is how they treated the dog. KARMA KARMA KARMA is coming your way. They sctual deserve death the same way the doggy died.
I hope and pray this cruel, insensitive person gets 15-20 years in prison and fined heavily for what was filmed and done to this beautiful dog! When are the Laws of our land CHANGE to protect and deal with such horrific crimes against innocent animals! If the punishment would be dealt with severely these sub-humans may think twice in abuse, cruelty and neglect of innocent animals! Our society should DEMAND the Laws to change and these people receive STIFF PUNISHMENT for what they do! Thank you!
Charles fucking Graves I believe this dog murdering bastard is called!
If you, you bastard happen to read the comments in this website, then you will know that you will need ‘eyes in your arse’ because you are very likely to get clubbed over your fucking head by one or the other of people who really DO NOT like you, you murdering ‘sick minded’ bastard.
I would love ten minutes with you, you arrogant fucker to show you what fright and pain are all about! These are not just idle threats you tosser as I would really make you ‘shit’ your pants!
The same treatment for you you wanker, would be about right. Dragged up the road with a noose around your fucking neck you bloody prick!
I say, be afraid, be very afraid you bastard, because your demise could be coming quicker than you think.
Sick fuckers like you are going to be stopped—permanently. The useless fucking laws will not do anything but ‘know you this’ you shitbag, people power WILL!!
Further to my first comment, I was so incensed that I got mixed up with another psycho ‘dog murdering’ bastard who put a wire noose around his dogs neck, then the fucker for some unknown reason dragged his dog behind his vehicle until it was I believe ‘dead’.
Arrogant twats like this need taking out quickly but painfully. And I am very sure that someone or some activist group will do the job and rid the world of yet another fucking bastard waste of space animal torturer.
Death to all of these arseholes and the sooner the better.
Mark my words, it is going to happen.
The pos doesn’t even deserve jail!!! He needs to be eliminated with a crossbow now!!!!
