Target: Michael L. Ramsey, District Attorney of Butte County, California
Goal: Ensure severe legal consequences for the alleged abuse of a pet rabbit.
In Chico, California, a disturbing case of alleged animal cruelty has emerged involving a pet rabbit. Late in the evening, local police responded to distressing claims of animal abuse. Witnesses recounted a harrowing scene where Evenlino Hopkins, a local resident, is alleged to have seized a roommate’s pet rabbit, subsequently inflicting harm upon it.
Further reports suggest Hopkins then carried the distressed animal away from the scene. Concerned individuals followed him to a location where he allegedly discarded the rabbit into a storm drain. Despite efforts by both police and fire department personnel, they were unable to rescue the rabbit. The incident has sparked outrage and calls for stringent legal action.
This alleged act not only highlights the need for stronger animal protection laws but also demands immediate and decisive legal action. Ensure such alleged acts of cruelty are met with the full force of the law, underscoring the urgency of our call for justice.
