Deputy Who Reportedly Left Bulldogs to Die in Scorching Heat Must be Punished

Target: Alisha Johnson, District Attorney of Rockdale County, GA

Goal: Prosecute animal cruelty case involving three deceased bulldogs and a police dog to the fullest extent.

With extreme temperature swings as the new norm, cases of animal cruelty involving either sweltering or freezing conditions will tragically rise as well. Three American bulldogs in Georgia reportedly became victims of such a tragedy. Storm, Luke, and Lala were apparently found dead inside a 95-plus degree shed. And the man allegedly responsible for leaving them to this agonizing fate is a local law enforcement officer.

A grand jury indicted sheriff’s deputy Eric Tolbert on animal cruelty charges in connection with the aforementioned deaths, as well as the case of a police dog also under Tolbert’s care. The latter animal, named Aegis, was apparently discovered at the deputy’s residence inside a hot pen and in a neglected state. Fortunately, Aegis was alive, unlike the other reported victims.

Tolbert’s case only came under review after significant protests and calls for action from PETA. Sign the petition below to help ensure continued calls lead to a full and vigorous prosecution.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear DA Johnson,

Sheriff’s deputy Eric Tolbert’s badge should not shield him from responsibility for the three innocent animal lives that were allegedly ended under his watch. Each of the dogs in this animal cruelty case experienced a likely horrific and painful death in a shed that was said to be akin to being inside an oven. Worse yet, a police dog also reportedly almost fell victim to neglect under his care.

It took pressure from PETA to help secure an investigation and a grand jury indictment. Please see this case through and pursue the maximum possible penalty in the event of a conviction. Do not plea the case out, and do not rebuff requests to make a permanent ban on pet ownership for Tolbert part of the penalty. Show that the life of every living being matters.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

  1. This is not really a “dirty cop”; in regard to dogs, he is rather typical. There are a disturbing number of such “dirty cops” all over the place. The “training” of police dogs is horrifically sadistic; the real deal is only done in private, not at all like the PR shows they put on for the public. Those who don’t participate in the torturous “training” know about it and do nothing to stop it. Of course these poor dogs died horribly in this cop’s “care”; they were of no concern at all to this person, naturally.

    Fuck you, deputy piece of shit.

  3. Am I missing something here? Aren’t the police supposed to investigate and pursue animal abuse cases instead of cause them? This guy is a sadistic and vile person, he would have to be beyond stupid to not know the dogs would die in that furnace he locked them in. And they were ready to ignore this until PETA forced them to do something? Prosecute and punish, you cannot ignore a nationally known case of animal abuse by this ‘cop’ without looking even worse than you already do.

  4. COCKSUCKING COP SHOULD HAVE THE SAME DAMN THING DONE TO HIM!!! GOD BLESS HUMANE LAW-ENFORCEMENT PERSONNEL!!! ANY LAW-ENFORCEMENT PERSON WHO ABUSES/NEGLECTS AN ANIMAL SHOULD “EAT A BULLET”!!!💪🇺🇲 RENEE CARIGLIA

      He really needs severe punishment for this

  5. I hope this waste of space loses his oxygen supply in the very worst way.

  6. Milantia Roy says:

    Let’s hope that this subhuman officer will get prison and a fine!, and also be terminated from the Police Force!

  7. Ana Gonzalez says:

    What a despicable piece of shit!

  8. It is an absolute disgrace that a Law enforcement individual was the person responsible for killing 3 Bulldogs and nearly killed a Police dog. The Sheriff’s deputy Eric Tolbert, responsible for the Deaths of these dogs should not be excused in any way just because he wears a badge. Not only did this Deputy kill these dogs but also betrayed the trust of the public.

  9. Melinda+Maddox says:

    This man should be fired and punished to the fullest extent of the law thrown in prison with a sign on his back cop animal abuser and let some of this big tough rough boys take care of him the right

  10. Cynthia Anne Pisarcik says:

    please don’t overlook this crulety because he is in law enforcement—————— rather make an example of him and give him the full extent of the law punishment !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    these animals deserve justice and he deserves punishment !!

  11. This vile, dog killing scumbag must have the death penalty implemented and nothing less.

  12. Michelle Stewart says:

    That bastard deserves to be shot dead

  13. Kathy Bossart says:

    WHO THE HELL DOES HE THINK HE IS. TOO BREAK THE LAW, HE IS TO E ENFORCE THE LAW, HE IS NOT THE LAW. THE LAW WAS THERE TO PROTECT ANIMALS AND US FROM ASSHOLES LIKE HIM. TAKE HIS SHIELD, NOT TO BE IN LAW ENFORCEMENT EVER AGAIN, PAY A BIG FINE, PUT HIM ON A REGISTRY NEVER TO BE ALLOWED TO OWN ANY ANIMALS AGAIN. SUCH A DISGRACE TO THE POLICE FORCEMENT. MAN I GUESS ANY DICK CAN BE A COP.

  14. Heartbreaking — such suffering — make Officer Eric Tolbert PAY for depraved CRIME of killing innocent, vulnerable Dogs — CRIMES against ANIMALS must be taken SERIOUSLY — Animals MUST be PROTECTED — Do NOT let KILLER-Abuser get away with his reckless, brutal, neglectful crime — a Police Officer, no less — someone who should KNOW better — he WILL REPEAT unless we STOP him
