Elderly Dog Burned in His Own Backyard Deserves Justice

Target: Rachel Mitchell, District Attorney of Phoenix, Arizona

Goal: Secure justice for elderly dog horrifically burned to death in a deliberate attack.

Shocking reports have emerged about a horrific act of cruelty inflicted upon an innocent, elderly dog named Duke, in Phoenix. An unknown assailant drenched him in gasoline and set him aflame in his backyard. The brutality of this attack on a defenseless animal, peacefully asleep behind his home, strikes a chord of outrage and demands immediate attention.

Further distressing details reveal that Duke, a 16-year-old pit bull-mastiff mix, suffered from severe burns so catastrophic that euthanasia was deemed the only merciful option. This cruel incident not only highlights a disturbing act of violence but also raises alarm over the safety and well-being of animals in our communities. Silent Witness and PETA, in response, have combined their resources to offer a reward totaling $9,000 for information leading to the arrest of the individual responsible.

The necessity for action is clear. We urge immediate measures to ensure the individual allegedly behind this heinous act is apprehended and faces the full extent of the law. This petition calls on the District Attorney to prioritize this case, ensuring justice for Duke and preventing future acts of violence against animals. Do not such cruelty.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear DA Rachel Mitchell,

A case has emerged from Phoenix that encapsulates a horrific act of cruelty against a defenseless elderly dog. Reportedly, an individual doused Duke, a 16-year-old pit bull-mastiff mix, in gasoline and set him on fire while he was asleep in his backyard. The severity of Duke’s injuries led to the heartrending decision to euthanize him, to alleviate his suffering from the severe burns inflicted upon him.

The community is in shock, mourning the loss of Duke and deeply concerned about the safety of other animals. This act of cruelty not only took Duke’s life in a most barbaric manner but also posed a stark question about our society’s tolerance for violence against animals. The rewards offered by Silent Witness and PETA reflect the public’s desire for justice and the urgency of apprehending the individual responsible for preventing future acts of cruelty.

We implore you, as the District Attorney, to take swift and decisive action in this case. It’s crucial that thorough investigations are conducted to bring the perpetrator to justice, ensuring such a heinous act does not go unpunished. This will not only serve justice for Duke but also demonstrate a commitment to safeguarding the welfare of all animals in our community.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

  1. So very sad. To have your baby burned by some douche in his own backyard, where he should feel nothing, but safe, is beyond disturbing. And elderly as well. Such a horrible person did this and deserves the harshest of punishment.

    The courts need to set a precedent to prevent these types of crimes from happening again. My heart breaks for this family.

  2. Hopefully they will find this creton and burn him to death. People there is evil towards animals out there and daily read about it. Keep your pets safe, don’t just leave them out or put them out to fend for themselves. When outside supervise them

  3. Burn the bastard

  4. I hope whoever did this dies a very slow painful death. If they capture this POS, I have zero problem doing the same thing to him/her. I am sick and tired of these scumbags. I want them dead, they deserve to die in the same manner.

      Totally agree Gus!!

    • What is needed here is a gang of ‘arrogant hard case, big and strong, non-caring ANIMAL LOVING vigilantes!!
      Someone or group that could find this bastard and not give a ‘fuck’ about the police or of being seen!
      To drag the twat from his house, sling a gallon of gasoline all over the prick and set him alight! Then once the sod is burning with no chance of going out, clear off and leave the bugger to roast and bugger the useless law!
      This is the ONLY THING that will make other animal torturers SIT UP and take notice as to what will happen to them when caught.
      Although ‘like for like’ punishment would be quite appropriate if there was time.
      Although whatever, these pieces of absolute demented crap have to be eradicated from the world and much power to all who feel the same, and who could genuinely also help to carry out the bastards demise!!!!

  5. catch the creep and burn him

  6. 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. This satanic pathological monster must be severely punished, MAX JAIL or DEATH PENALTY! He must also be forbidden from coming near/owning animals ever again.
    SET a PRECEDENT, and punish to the full extent of the law!

  7. The evil monster who did this to Duke should be put behind bars for good. He’s a serial animal abuser. He will do this again and again, and he will harm and kill vulnerable human beings too, if he hasn’t already. Do the world a favor and remove him from society permanently. Authorities KNOW that these psychopaths cannot be rehabilitated. Do the RIGHT thing and find this killer and LOCK HIM UP!

    IT SEEMS TO ME THAT IT IS ALWAYS IN THE USA THAT PEOPLE DO SUCH HORRIBLE THINGS WITH DOGS OR OTHER ANIMALS. ARE THERE STILL NORMAL PEOPLE OVER THERE? DO THE SAME THING NOW WITH THIS ABUSER. NO MERCY.

    • Jackie Mcmillen says:

      I totally agree with all the people that have commented on here and I feel the exact same way about burning the sick person that did this to sweet old man Duke he sure didn’t deserve what happened to him may he rest very easy at rainbow bridge and may he get much deserved justice rest easy sweet baby boy

  9. Carole Coulson says:

    It is unimaginable what type of creature could commit this horrific crime. I say creature because the culprit lacks any humanity. Please punish the guilty party to the highest level permitted by law. Better yet, set a legal precedent to deter anyone from committing similar acts.

  10. Margaret Strane says:

    FIND this devil and douse him/ her in gasoline and let a slow, painful death be their outcome.

  11. Why does no one seem to care, that these evil people are walking amongst us? Do we really need to let these people exist? What will they do next? If we don’t start exterminating these evil souls, we will all end up possibly being hurt or killed by them. Someone stand up and protect us from evil. Animals or humans don’t stand a chance with evilness roaming amongst us !

  12. This is HEINOUS thus person needs to be in prison

  13. Maria Lavorato says:

    Duke was just innocently sleeping in his back yard. What kind of monster does that!

  14. Maria Lavorato says:

    Duke was just innocently sleeping his his yard!
    What kind of monster does that!

  15. josie olive says:

    This savage needs to have gas poured down his neck and set ablaze

  16. OMG! PURE EVIL!! SATAN WALKS TGIS EARTH!!!!!!!!!!!!

  17. This person needs to be found, this disgusting piece of shit must pay for the suffering & pain & death he caused Duke who was minding his own business! 💔💔💔
    RIP Duke

  18. Oh the poor dog ! Not even safe in his own property. The POS who did this needs to be treated the same….jail is too good for him.

  19. Jacqueline “Torture the S*** says:

    Find this sick SOB B****d! Set him on fire!!

  20. There are absolutely NO WORDS for this sick, twisted kind of mind…

    For the elderly furbaby, I am so very sorry you have been through so much pain for no reason, then lost you life because of it. 😞
    As for the family, I’m truly so very sorry for your loss.

    • Presumably the old dog was chained up so it could not escape.
      So it looks like it was his owners who were at fault and only have themselves to blame.
      What I have never understood is if you have a domestic pet, why the fuck would you want keep it chained up outside???
      Would they do this to a child. NO of course the prats would not!!!
      So why do it.
      This is a living, feeling animal that is no doubt more intelligent than the prats supposedly looking after it.
      So these fools have only got themselves to blame for leaving the animal vulnerable against these sick minded, demented bastards whose warped minds who think of nothing but torturing animals to death.
      These turds deserve exactly the same treatment so they know exactly what they have done.
      J.W.
