Target: Letitia James, Attorney General of the State of New York

Goal: Prosecute and seek the strongest penalties against anyone responsible for burning a pit bull puppy alive.

A pit bull puppy was apparently locked inside a crate, allegedly starved and dehydrated for days, before being doused with lighter fluid and set ablaze. Surveillance footage reputedly shows someone dragging the crate into a secluded parking lot, pouring flammable liquid over it, and then walking away as flames engulfed the terrified dog trapped inside. The puppy reportedly did not survive this ordeal, prompting profound outrage among community members and animal advocates alike.

Such a horrific act of alleged cruelty raises urgent concerns about the safety of all living creatures in the area. Evidence suggests that this dog was confined with no chance of escape, enduring days of neglect before this final, violent act. The disturbing nature of this case highlights the importance of vigorously enforcing anti-cruelty laws to deter future incidents of this nature.

Ensuring that anyone found responsible is prosecuted to the fullest extent sends a powerful message that society values compassion over brutality. Animal welfare protections exist for a reason, and the mistreatment of any vulnerable creature must not go unanswered. The demand is simple: bring justice for this innocent puppy and help ensure no other animal endures a similar fate.

PETITION LETTER:

Dear AG James,

We, the undersigned, urge you to take decisive legal action on behalf of a pit bull puppy that was apparently locked in a crate, doused with lighter fluid, and set on fire. According to available evidence and video footage, this act of apparent cruelty caused the dog intense suffering and ultimately led to a tragic death.

This alleged atrocity must be investigated with the utmost seriousness, not only to honor the life that was lost but to deter others who might inflict similar harm on vulnerable animals. Existing laws on aggravated cruelty should be applied to their fullest capacity to ensure that consequences are commensurate with the severity of the accusations.

We respectfully request that you do everything within your authority to prosecute those reportedly involved, delivering a clear signal that such acts of cruelty carry significant repercussions and have no place in a compassionate society.

Sincerely,

[Your Name Here]

    This is disgusting and depraved. It is NEVER OK to harm or torture an animal. Find this filthy abusing murderer and lock them away. Do not be complicit by doing nothing lawmakers. And by the way- enact harsher punishments for animal abusers.

    Who would like to nominate these oxygen depriving trash as effigies on guy fawkes.. draw lots to see who lits the bonfires.. parents need committing for breeding this garbage, rot in hell.. RIP Puppa.

  3. NEED TO NAME NAMES: The POS murderer is the puppy’s owner, 34-year-old CHRISTOPHER MAXWELL from the Bronx. The crime took place in Albany, NY in a church parking lot. This sick f**k killed an innocent puppy in one of the most gruesome and terrifying ways. Imagine the fear that poor pup faced, first caged and starved, then SET ON FIRE. Maxwell needs to be reduced to ashes and sent to hell. You can see his ugly mug here, as well as the video footage (NBC News):

      Thanks for naming this waste of oxygen. One voodoo curse being placed on its ratchet skinbag right now.

    • An eye for an eye….since Justice does not stand up and do the right thing!!!!

      • An eye for an eye —YES exactly as the useless ‘slappy-wristy’ Justice system will do sweet fuck all to stop this animal torture and murder. Christopher Maxwell from the Bronx. Yet another Black bugger you can bet. And before the ‘ racist’ shit starts appearing, you know what? I could not give a toss. These are the bastards who always seem to be in the limelight for animal torture and murder. Well what needs to be done here is a ‘no-brainer! This nasty fucker needs ‘hunting down’ and the same thing done to him! Although for quickness, not necessarily confined to a crate but just quickly doused with gasoline or similar inflammable substance, then set alight. Then quickly disappear whilst the bastard is doing his death-dance’. But do not call the fire brigade too soon until you know the fucker is burning nicely.
        THIS IS the ONLY way that these ‘non-caring’ sick-brained pieces of shit will learn. Either by death or injured so bad that they would NEVER be able to do anything like this EVER again. A quick death is much too good for these tossers. They have to know just what the animal was feeling.
        Would I set fire to this ‘mother fuck’? You bet I bloody well would with no remorse whatsoever.
        Serious Vigilante groups are needed here to stop these arrogant pricks DEAD in their tracks. With DEAD being the most appropriate for this ‘sikko’ bastard!!

    • Just watched the video of this shitbag.
      Some fired up gang or group PLEASE find this cunt and do what is necessary. And we all know what that is!
      J,W,

      • Yeh, just watched the video surveillance which shows this bastard pulling a dog crate with already starved dog across some waste ground – looks like! Apparently early morning whilst still somewhat dark.Then the fucker doused his young dog with fuel and set the dog alight! THEN— whilst the screaming pup was burning it shows the cunt slowly walking back, presumably to his house as though he had just put out a bag of rubbish. WELL— I am a serious ‘dog person’ and you cannot imagine what I would do to this ‘non-caring’ fucker if I was anywhere near and fuck the consequences. I would take that risk gladly. This is not a ‘demented’ brained sod. He knew exactly what he was doing.
        If the bugger is out in bail or whatever, please please some animal activist group or gang locate, and give this piece of shit exactly what he deserves. And that is to be doused in gasoline and set on fire so the fucker knows just what the little dog suffered. This sod is a danger to animals and humans alike and must be taught a very severe lesson. As you can imagine I hate and loath this cunt to a degree that is bordering on the manic!! Unfortunately I cannot get to him as I am thousands of miles away. I really hope there are others who feel the same as I and take this fucker out very painfully or just kill the prick. He is NOT human so no one would miss him.
        J.W.

  4. God, Karma, Guardian Angels….humans….anyone that can find that monster put him away for life.

  5. Lisa Sadighi says:

    Christopher Maxwell from Bronx, NY, I hope you are skinned alive with a dull scalpel. I hope he gets a stiff sentence like the guy in Georgia did.

  6. PLEASE PROSECUTE AND LOCK UP THIS SICK AND EVIL MONSTER AND KEEP HIM AWAY FROM ALL ANIMALS OR HE WILL NOT STOP!!! HE IS AN EVIL MONSTER AND THIS POOR PUPPY DESERVES JUSTICE FOR ITS BRUTAL TORTURE AND MURDER!!!

  7. How can people be so cruel. Poor baby.

  8. Manny Remo says:

    Open season on this Guilty sack of 💩💥👈

  9. This was an intentional cold blooded evil act against a harmless,defenseless living being.This person is a danger to all living beings and deserves the most severe charges possible and when convicted the most severe consequences possible.

  10. No animal deserves to be a victim of DEHUMANIZED, DESENSITIZED and MENTALLY-DERANGED SADISTIC PSYCHOPATHS!!
    NO animal-abuser should get away with such a horrific crime.
    LAWMAKERS, stop these crimes by establishing harsh punishments for animal abuse! It’s your duty as humans.
    Tormenting, neglecting and killing animals has a brutalizing effect on our society and mankind as a whole.
    This pathological monster must be severely punished. He must also be forbidden from owning or coming near animals ever again.
    SET a PRECEDENT, and punish to the full extent of the law!
    MAX JAIL or DEATH PENALTY for this sadistic scumbag!
    This poor puppy suffered a lot and deserves justice.

    • Yes..lawmakers must step up do their duty to protect precious animals, and humans.
      Nobody deserve that.
      Burn him to death

  11. OMG I won’t watch that video. Just the description makes my stomach turn. I can’t imagine that pup thrashing around in that crate. and OMG he was starved beforehand too! WHAT KIND OF HUMAN DOES THIS???!!!

    Here is this PIECE OF SHIT’S PHOTO AND NAME:

  12. That is a horrific thing to do to an innocent animal. The people need to be held accountable and justice for the puppy.

  13. Esta história é mais uma que não esclarece os pormenores de toda a situação. Não se percebe como é que ninguém agiu quando viram uma pessoa a deitar combustível sobre a caixa e de seguida a incedia-la, não é aceitável tanta pacividade! Para além disso se a comunidade está tão perturbada porque é que não atua, porque é que fica à espera que outros animais sejam vítimas do mesmo criminoso? Atuem já, ganhem coragem e unam-se contra esse criminoso. Descubram onde ele está e fechem-no dentro de uma caixa durante uma semana e de seguida reguem com gasolina e deitem fogo. Só desta forma brutal é que se pode fazer justiça e acabar com os criminosos que maltratam animais inocentes! ATUEM EM VEZ DE FICAREM A VER SEM PROTEGER OS ANIMAIS!

  14. Someone knows who did this. A big fat reward will make people chirp. The authorities put the donuts down and find this POS ASAP.

  15. The same needs to be done to this worthless scumbag! If the real justice does nothing to this scumbag, I hope karma sends a fireball of death to the scumbag!!

    This was nothing more than an intentional act of abuse and cruelty at it’s worst.

  16. LOCATE ALL THESE CRUEL & ABUSIVE ASSHOLES SND LOCK THEM INTO A CAGE ALL TOGETHER AND DON’T FEED AND GIVE THEM ANYTHING TO DRINK FOR DAYS, THEN DOUSEVTHEM ALL WITH LIGJTER FLUID AND STRIKE A MSTCH AND THROW THEVLIGHTED MATCHED ON THESE STUPID, INHUMANE, CRUEL, AND ABUSIVE ASSHOLES!!! THERE IS NO SENSE BEING CRUEL AND ABUSIVE TOWARDS ANY ANIMALS INCLUDING PUPPIES, DOGS, KITTENS, CATS, COWS, PIGS, DUCKS, SWANS, s well as all ither animals in the world!!!

  17. Carolyn Evton says:

    Letitia James, Attorney General of the State of New York, please give your attention to this heinous crime. Please prosecute to the fullest extent of the law. The perpetrator’s action shows no regard for a living thing, and uses extremely malicious practices. Constituents are counting on you to route out this behavior. Thank you.

  18. Kathleen BOSSART says:

    AWWWW, IAM SO PISSED OFF, WHAT A DICK HEAD, NOT HUMAN, TOTALLY A SERIAL KILLER WITH THIS TYPE OF BEHAVIOR. PUT AWAY FOR A VERY VERY LONG TIME, WITH NO PRIVILAGES AT ALL. I HOPE THESE JUDGES GET ON THE BALL WITH THESE EVIL ACTIONS. WHAT A SLIME BUCKET, I WISH I WAS A JUDGE, MAN HE WOULD BE IN FOR A RUDE AWAKINING. I HATE EXSTREMILY, PEOPLE LIKE WHO THINK THEY ARE ABOVE THE LAW AND LIFE.

  19. Maria Lavorato says:

    OMG! The exact same for this EVIL.! This MF NEEDS TO BE SET ON FIRE. NO F..ING MERCY!

    Letitia James, Attorney General of the State of New York
