Target: Hon. Bruce Colton, State Attorney, 19th Judicial Circuit of Florida
Goal: Ensure severe legal action for alleged brutal abuse of dogs.
In a horrifying case of alleged animal abuse, Nikki Camerlengo, the owner of Pawsitively Paradise in Martin County, Florida, was arrested after numerous dog deaths reportedly linked to her facility. Camerlengo faces one count of felony animal cruelty, with further charges expected. Forensic necropsies on two dogs reportedly revealed deaths from severe blunt force trauma.
One particular case involves a 2-year-old Cavapoo puppy named Beau, who reportedly died under Camerlengo’s care in March 2024. Beau’s necropsy report alleged gruesome injuries: blows to the neck, chest, belly, and private areas caused extensive hemorrhaging in the brain. The report indicates that Beau endured a prolonged and agonizing death, consistent with the brutal treatment allegedly inflicted upon him.
The Martin County Sheriff’s Office conducted an in-depth investigation, uncovering disturbing evidence of neglect and abuse. The dogs at the facility reportedly suffered in filthy, overcrowded conditions, with some left without food or water. Two other dogs were reportedly discovered to have died under similar circumstances, one found with severe internal injuries and another with untreated wounds and infections.
After Camerlengo’s release on bail, the community remains outraged. The evidence suggests that these dogs experienced immense suffering, leading to their eventual deaths. The necropsy reports highlight the severity of the alleged abuse, suggesting that the animals were subjected to repeated trauma and prolonged pain. Ensure severe legal action against Nikki Camerlengo.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Hon. Bruce Colton,
I am writing to express my deep concern regarding the recent arrest of Nikki Camerlengo, the owner of Pawsitively Paradise, on charges of felony animal cruelty. The allegations of severe abuse and neglect that seemingly led to the deaths of multiple dogs are horrifying and demand immediate and stringent legal action.
The necropsy reports for the dogs reveal appalling details of their suspected suffering. For example, Beau, a 2-year-old Cavapoo puppy, reportedly suffered severe blows to his neck, chest, belly, and private areas, resulting in extensive hemorrhaging and a prolonged, agonizing death. Such cruelty towards innocent animals is unacceptable and must be met with the full force of the law.
I urge your office to ensure that Nikki Camerlengo faces the maximum legal consequences for her alleged actions. Furthermore, I request that measures be taken to prevent her from owning or caring for any animals in the future. It is crucial to protect other animals from experiencing similar fates.
By taking a firm stance against animal cruelty, we can send a clear message that such behavior will not be tolerated in our society. Please take all necessary steps to ensure justice for these innocent animals and to uphold the principles of compassion and humane treatment for all living beings.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]
