Dozens of Dogs Apparently Left Starving to Death in Abandoned Houses Deserve Justice

Target: Michael C. O’Malley, District Attorney of Cuyahoga County, Ohio

Goal: Ensure legal action against those allegedly responsible for severe neglect and cruelty towards dozens of dogs.

Recent events uncovered in Parma, Ohio, have revealed a disturbing tale of alleged neglect and cruelty towards animals, drawing widespread condemnation and an outcry for justice. Allegedly, 36 dogs were discovered in dire straits within a residence, a scenario described as nothing short of horrific. These animals, including a cattle dog/husky mix named Tahoe, and a beagle named Sophie, purportedly suffered from extreme malnutrition and abandonment. This incident has cast a shadow over the community, emphasizing an urgent need for systemic changes to prevent such alleged abuse.

Further distressing is the claim that the decomposing remains of 146 dogs were found in another location tied to the same individual responsible for the Parma home. The alleged circumstances suggest these animals were confined, starved, and utterly neglected. The stark contrast between their reported conditions and their eventual rescue paints a vivid picture of suffering that demands action. The public’s reaction has been one of horror, empathy for the survivors, and a unanimous call for accountability.

The imperative for change is clear. This petition seeks to compel legal authorities to take decisive action against those allegedly responsible for such egregious acts of cruelty. The reported events underscore a significant gap in the protection and welfare of animals. Address this specific incident and set a precedent that animal neglect and cruelty will not be tolerated.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear DA Michael C. O’Malley,

The community is reeling from the shocking discovery of 36 dogs reportedly found in appalling conditions in Parma, Ohio. This case, alongside the even more disturbing reported find of 146 dogs’ remains in Mantua, has spotlighted an urgent issue within our society—alleged animal neglect and cruelty on a disturbing scale. The fact that these dogs, like Tahoe and Sophie, were allegedly left to suffer in confinement without basic necessities such as food or water, points to a severe lapse in compassion and responsibility.

The legal system has the power and duty to address these alleged wrongdoings. While the primary suspect in this case has since passed, leaving many questions unanswered and justice hanging in the balance, it remains crucial that we pursue accountability wherever possible. This includes scrutinizing and taking action against any accomplices or systemic failures that may have allowed such neglect to occur unchecked. The survivors of this ordeal, now thankfully rehomed, symbolize both the resilience of the spirit and the dire consequences of inaction.

We, therefore, urge you to utilize the full extent of your authority to ensure that justice is served for the alleged victims of this profound neglect. By taking a firm stance against such acts, you have the opportunity to affirm our community’s commitment to compassion, justice, and the welfare of all beings. Let this case serve as a deterrent to potential future acts of cruelty and as a call to action for improved animal welfare laws and enforcement.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

    This is in my hometown. I used to donate to the dog rescue and I know people who attended fundraisers. This took everyone by surprise. The lady just recently passed away from cancer. But she was charged prior to her passing. However, that does not excuse what she did. I still don’t understand how neighbors, volunteers and others closely associated with this woman did not know what the hell she was doing. They should have called authorities and or intervened if she was shying away from them. Still no excuse and I am not sorry that she died herself. It was very selfish of her not to get care to the animals.

    • Perhaps you will understand why the only comment I ever make is…where are the neighbours, friends, family… Call the police, call other shelters, call shelters in the next town over. Whatever it takes to get attention where it’s needed. This eyes closed, fingers in your ears attitude has to end.
      FOR CRYING OUT LOUD (FOR THOSE WHO CANNOT) SEE SOMETHING SAY SOMETHING.

        TOTALLY AGREE KERRY GET INVOLVED!!!

      • Agree. those who turn the other way or neglect to take action are just as guilty. And the judges who roll out a mere slap on the hand as punishment are also guilty

        Exactly what you said- Everyone needs to read, understand and learn that if you know then that makes you part of the problem- See Something, Say Something. Poor animals with no voice and no care, no human came forward to help them.

    • I totally agree with you. Someone must have noticed something!

      Lady? She was no lady; she was an evil, uncaring B*tch who killed at least 160 dogs! When a person like this figures out how to hide what she’s doing, outsiders will never find out because she doesn’t let them come to her house(s) or wherever this neglect and cruelty is happening. You’re assuming that others knew about this but I’m not sure about that. I agree that if others knew about this, they should have called and they should be prosecuted for doing nothing. This horrific evilness is way past selfish, but I do believe she’s in hell now. Just out of curiosity, are you sure she died from cancer? I can’t find anything about her cause of death.

      • 160 dogs ? Are you sure that is an extreme amount of dogs! Was this evil human a breeder?
        I like to find out how in the hell that can happen without interference of any neighbor ? Shows you again how much people care- self involved in their little life’s !

    • Without sounding too harsh, I find that it is a shame that this uncaring useless woman ‘ passed’ as it says in the notes above without having a ‘taste of her own medicine.
      I assume that ‘passed ’ means that she ‘ snuffed it- ‘kicked the bucket’
      or just bloody died before she could answer for her neglect and abusive torture of these dogs!!
      She obviously knew the situation she was in and was able to do something about it but chose not to!! Leaving the trusting animals at her mercy.
      Sorry if anyone thinks I am mean by saying this but I’m glad she is ‘dead’ as the courts and justice system would have done bugger all anyway as usual. So score ONE for the dogs that were rescued this time.
      She was guilty of gross cruelty, abuse and neglect of these unfortunate
      animals so has suffered the consequences although not severely enough.
      And as a submission asks, WHERE WERE THE STUPID NEIGHBOURS? They must have know that there was a problem there so are just as guilty!!
      But there it is. No one can give a ‘toss’ as they are too wrapped up in their own little worlds and stuff anything else. In this case, they are just as bad as the useless uncaring arse of a woman. This time the waste of space law has been given a reprieve.
      Without being too nasty, just a shame that this annoying woman did not really have to suffer herself!
      This time, looks like ‘karma’ did have a way of coming around. Just a shame it does not happen to all the other sick ‘perps’ and animal murderers out there!!!

  3. These people need to be punished to the fullest extent of the law the number of dogs that they found carcasses of is absolutely deplorable. The ones that were left still alive are desperately in need of survival medical help. God bless the people that are helping them and put these people that did this to them under the jail for many years along with some great big animal lovers that should probably take care of them Very well

  4. No animal deserves to be the victim of DEHUMANIZED and DESENSITIZED SADISTIC PSYCHOPATHS!!! Crimes committed against defenseless animals are increasingly GROTESQUE because the punishment for animal abuse is not severe enough, and in many cases does not exist. A slap on the wrist is a MOCKERY of animal victims. These satanic pathological monsters must be severely punished, MAX JAIL or DEATH PENALTY! They must also be forbidden from coming near animals ever again.
    SET a PRECEDENT, and punish to the full extent of the law!

      What Law?!?!? THERE’S NO LAW AGAINST “ANIMAL ABUSE”!!!!! MAKES ME SOOO ANGRY!!!! EVIL PPL ARE ALLOWED TO TORTURE, STARVE,ABUSE AND MURDER,,,, INNOCENT ANIMAL’S!!!!
      THEY ALL DESERVE THE DEATH PENALTY!!!! NOT TO BE LET GO FREE OR PAMPERED IN JAIL OR PRISON’S……

      • Exactly.
        There is NO LAW for animals and the Justice system cannot give a toss!
        Animals have hearts, lungs, feelings etc just the same as us. Except they are ‘down in the line’ from so-called humans!
        Most of us would never intentionally harm an animal.It is just the deranged cowardly bastards who take out their anger and frustrations on them because they know that the animals will not fight back, and it makes the pricks feel good and hard.
        This torture and murder Is going on all over the world and needs the pathetic law to seriously do something about it – not later but RIGHT NOW.
        Letters, petitions or any way to make the buggers do something and know that THE NORMAL PEOPLE MEAN BUSINESS.
        although it looks very much like we will have to take care of these nasty animal torturing bastards ourselves.
        Always ways and means dear friends. Of that I can vouch for implicitly.

  5. The law has to change in regard to animal abuse. There seems to be no end to people’s cruelty and it is becoming far too prevalent. Lock them up for a long time and ban them from ever owning an animal again. It is heartbreaking to think of the suffering these poor animals endured. It is heartbreaking.

    • The only way to stop these animal murdering bastards is a law being made to sentence any known animal torturer to DEATH. This would stop these bastards in their tracks. As the pieces of shit would REALLY NOT want to be terminated.
      BUT—- this I believe will never happen as I have said many times before, the useless pricks do NOT give a toss as they are only animals.
      Well these are ONLY HUMANS ( so-called I might add) and there are far too many humans on the planet right now! So these bastards would definitely NOT BE MISSED at all.
      I am very sure that there are plenty of hard up people who would systematically take these animal murderers out for a fee!! No questions asked — name and address given – then goodbye arsehole your choice of demise!
      Got to happen and WILL happen folks.
      Animals have as much right to live ( if not more so) than humans.
      And Inam sure most of us feel exactly the same towards these demented animal torturing tossers!

    Apparently, the evil bitch (Barbara Wible) who killed these dogs (160 in 2 different counties) by starvation and neglect has died while awaiting trial. I’m trying to find out the cause of her death but whatever it is, it wasn’t near the pain and suffering those innocent dogs went through. The pictures of where the dogs were found are just horrific and heartbreaking. I can’t imagine being starved to death nor starving an animal to death. I hope her level of hell is Starvation. The case doesn’t need to be dismissed but a fine levied based on the vaue of her estate, and given to the rescue shelters and organizations that took in the surviving dogs.

    • I wonder if her family knew anything about this, according to one poster this C**t died from Cancer, I hope it was painful and she suffered tremendously while croaking.

    • Exactly right 100%
      Estate needs to be sold off to the benefit of animal charities.
      No money to be given to any living relatives.
      I really hope this bloody woman suffered before she died.
      Just a shame someone or group didn’t get to her first !!

    Find the person(s) who did this, lock them up in a house and let them starve to death. No need to prosecute, an eye for an eye.

    • She wasn’t a lady. Her properties and any other possessions should be sold and the proceeds donated to local shelters and rescues. The court system can make this happen.

    • She definitely WAS NOT a lady but a ‘animal torturing cunt’ who is now dead!! Just a shame that the bastard did not suffer the same as the unfortunate dogs.
      Bloody good riddance. One animal torturing scumbag piece of shite less on the planet.
      J.W.

  12. LOCATE these CRUEL & ABUSIVE IDIOTS, LOCK THEM INSIDE A CONCRETE BOX WITHOUT ANY WAY OF GETTING OUT AND/OR GETTING HELP FROM ANYONE ELSE WITHOUT ANY FOOD AND WATER WITHOUT ANY APPLIncesthat work!!! Let these CRUEL ABUSIVE ASSHOLES LIVE AS THESE INNOCENT DOGS HAD TOO!! THESE PEOPLE SHOULD NEVER BEVALLOWED TO OWN, ADOPT, ANDBE NEAR/CLOSE ANY MORE DOGS AND ALL OTHER ANIMALS FOR THE REST OF THEIR MISERABLE LIVES!!!!

  13. No one should be able to do such evil as this person and then not spend the rest of their evil life in prison! Actually the public is getting sick and tired of all these state officials doing nothing, our legal system not helping as it is in the toilet, but I might have an idea. Only true experience teaches. I just bought a bag for shopping which says, “I am for putting all Animal Abusers to sleep!” Yes, I mean it. Most of Americans mean it too. These people who trash life, society, and kill for the sake of killing must be hurt in a similar manner. No death but everything that is painful short of death most be done. We want this torture to stop happening to innocent animals. They are not beneath us, it is we who are beneath them. These monsters need to learn how it feels to be hurt so badly that usually it takes your life. Yet we are merciful and will allow these people to live but live in pain for the rest of their lives. This can be a reminder of the pain they inflicted on others. The monsters living in our society don’t respect anything but themselves will soon learn how it feels to be on the other side.

    I agree with comments. The laws need to change in regard to animal abuse so innocent animals don’t keep suffering.

    What all these angels went through is horrifying, incomprehensible.

    The legal system fails time and again. STOP this vicious cycle please.

    Barbara Wible and all like her should feel all the agony each and every sweet animal endured.

  17. I am totally disgusted and horrified with our do nothing LAWS in this country for the EVIL HUMAN GARBAGE On this earth, GET rid of the TRASH for good abd end this DISGUST!!!
