Target: Keith P. Freie, Prosecuting Attorney, Montgomery County, Missouri
Goal: Seek maximum jail on every count, consecutive terms, restitution, firearm surrender, counseling, and a lifetime ban on animal ownership for the person who allegedly shot six kittens.
Authorities filed six misdemeanor counts after a man allegedly admitted shooting six kittens. Each charge states he “purposely killed a cat.” Court papers add that a protected victim owned these kittens. Pain rippled across a household while tiny bodies reportedly fell and justice must be done.
Officials reportedly warned that this defendant posed a risk for community safety and talked about fleeing the scene of the crime. An arrest warrant was issued, and bond appearance is pending. Such statements suggest danger, flight concerns, and continuing fear for people connected with this case.
Missouri law allows up to one year per misdemeanor count, plus fines. Accountability should match the suspected cruelty. Consecutive terms would reflect six separate lives lost. Restitution should cover cremation, counseling for grieving guardians, and public costs. Sign below to demand a permanent prohibition on owning or working with animals, firearm surrender, and mandatory psychological evaluation to help prevent future violence.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Prosecutor Freie,
A Montgomery City resident allegedly admitted to shooting six kittens over several days. Charges allege purposeful killing for each count, with a protected victim identified as guardian. Concerns about the suspect leaving the state must make this case a priority.
We respectfully urge pursuit of maximum sentences on all six counts, with consecutive terms where permitted. Please request a lifetime ban on owning, possessing, or working with animals. Conditions should include firearm surrender, no‑contact orders protecting the victim, mandatory psychological evaluation, and counseling. Restitution should address veterinary, cremation, shelter, and investigative costs, along with trauma‑related support for those affected.
Firm prosecution here would honor six young lives, protect vulnerable animals, and deter future cruelty. This case deserves clear, resolute penalties.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]
