Target: J. Scott Moffitt, Taylor City, Michigan Prosecutor
Goal: Hold accountable the individual allegedly responsible for the hit-and-run death of a beloved dog.
A heartbreaking incident involving a Taylor woman’s dog has raised serious concerns regarding animal cruelty and accountability on our roads. As reported, on February 3, Norman Edgar Newman drove recklessly while speeding in a white Ford Explorer. He purportedly crossed over the southbound lane on Holland Road, striking a 34-year-old woman and her dog before fleeing the scene. Tragically, the woman’s dog succumbed to its injuries at an animal hospital.
Police say they utilized video surveillance to identify Newman as the driver involved in this hit-and-run, leading to his arrest. Despite the gravity of the situation, Newman was released on bond and is set to return to court in a few weeks. This response raises alarms about the seriousness with which animal cruelty and reckless driving allegations are being handled.
The local community deserves assurances that reckless and cruel behaviors will not go unchecked. Call for appropriate legal action against Newman for his alleged acts of animal cruelty alongside the reckless driving charges.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Prosecutor Moffitt,
The alleged actions of Norman Edgar Newman on February 3, resulting in the tragic death of a beloved dog, cannot be overlooked. As reported, Newman was speeding and driving recklessly when he crossed the lane and struck a 34-year-old woman and her dog, fleeing the scene immediately after the incident. The woman’s dog later died from its injuries at a nearby animal hospital, an event that has also deeply affected the woman and her community.
There are serious allegations here, and it is crucial that the justice system addresses them with the gravity they warrant. The investigation reportedly revealed video footage to identify Newman as the driver involved, and his weak bond seems inadequate for the severity of the alleged offenses. Ensuring accountability for individuals who engage in reckless and cruel behavior is essential for the safety and well-being of animals and the community alike.
We call upon you to pursue appropriate legal action against Newman for animal cruelty, abandonment, and reckless driving in connection to this tragic incident. It is vital to demonstrate that such acts will be met with the severe consequences they deserve.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

Throw this creep in jail for a very long time. He’s an animal murderer!
They release him, what is wrong in this country! The justice system suck!
THIS CRUEL & ABUSIVE BASTARD DESERVES TO BE HIT BY A TRUCK WHILE OUT WALKING AND SUFFER INJURIES WHERE HE DIES A SLOW AND PAINFUL DEATH!!!!
So sad!
Maximum prison time…and let his karma come swiftly!
The pieces of garbage that killed this dog should suffer the same fate immediately.
You call this partial outcome JUSTICE!!!! this isn’t justice..there should be NO bond at any time not just in this abhorrent case but in EVERY case where the lady and her beautiful dog are the VICTIMS!!! not the monstrous perpetrator.You need to get this case right for heavens sake..This monster is a danger to society..lock him up and throw away the key!!!!
There should never be a bond for hit and run especially resulting in a death dog or not. The fog was her companion and the driver was probably impaired and lucky he didn’t kill get too!!Whats the matter with this judge????
And what about the woman he hit also???????!!!!!!!!
Don’t worry. Obviously she doesn’t count. Just collateral damage!!!

Absolutely No Tolerance Towards Animal ABUSERS n Cruelty. An eye for an eye fits this crime n should be the punishment. Paws Matter
Someone in MI , run this motherfucker over. Do society a favor. He’s a useless piece of shit. Post his address,
EYE FOR AN EYE TO THE BASTARD!
Nothing will happen!!!! NO OFFICIALS HAVE THE BALLS IN USA !!
Why why why would this drunk cruel idiot be released?!?!
It could have been a baby in a stroller!! Is the woman okay?? I’m so so sorry this happened to you, her!!! Throw this idiot in jail, maximum fine and community service picking up trash like the trash he is!!!
Simple solution. Let out on bond it seems.
Well, maybe could be a good thing as if anyone has an old car and the guts’ to take action, do the same to this arrogant ‘non- caring bastard and run the sod over well and good. If the prick survived then he might think twice about doing stuff like this again. Although I expect the bugger was ‘popped up’ with bloody drugs or such like in which case if anyone feels strongly enough over this then make a good job and terminate the bastard by any means possible. Pillocks like this have no place on our world!!

This woman’s whole entire life has changed dramatically because of this one incident of Newman driving reckless. You know this was not his first recklessness behind the wheel and it will NOT be his last. Until Newman is jailed, fined deeply, and experience the same loss, he will NOT do anything to change. And our Justice system has no desire to help that lesson be learned, unfortunately. We need to bring back the good ole STREET JUSTICE for these type instances.
This fucker WOULD NOT do this again if he were DEAD— now would he???
Norman Edgar Newman must die! Hang that evil dirtbag by his balls and make him suffer! That devil belongs in hell ASAP!!! We want justice for this poor precious dog and his grieving owner!
Death penalty for this sick bastard,POS,SOB,burn in hell,motherfucker!
+RIP dog, justice!
