Target: Nathan Hochman, Los Angeles County District Attorney
Goal: Identify and charge those responsible for gluing a dog’s eyes and genitals shut with Gorilla Glue, and seek maximum penalties including a lifetime animal-ownership ban, court-ordered counseling, and full restitution.
Rescuers found a small dog in devastating condition with what appeared to be an eye infection. A veterinarian then discovered both eyes sealed shut with Gorilla Glue, and—more shocking still—the animal’s private parts glued closed. This chilling detail paints a picture of deliberate torment that, if proven, inflicted excruciating pain, possible blindness, and dangerous urinary obstruction.
Cases like this emerge from a constant stream of cruelty on city streets. In this incident, the dog—now called CeCe—needed immediate medical intervention and will require ongoing care to recover from the trauma. Acts of this kind, if substantiated, reflect calculated harm, not a momentary lapse, and demand a firm legal response.
A strong prosecution deters copycats, protects vulnerable animals, and affirms that intentional torture will face serious consequences. This petition urges a thorough investigation, swift identification of any perpetrators, and—if evidence supports—filing of charges and pursuit of the longest lawful sentence, a lifetime ban on owning or controlling animals, mandatory counseling, and restitution for veterinary and shelter costs.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear DA Hochman,
A small dog was found with both eyes glued shut with Gorilla Glue and her genitals sealed as well. A veterinarian confirmed these findings after rescuers initially believed they were treating a simple eye infection. These acts represent calculated cruelty that caused severe pain, risked blindness, and threatened life-threatening complications.
We respectfully urge your office to prioritize this case. Please direct a thorough investigation to identify any individuals responsible and, if the evidence supports it, file appropriate charges. At sentencing, we ask that your prosecutors advocate for the maximum lawful penalties, including a lifetime prohibition on owning or controlling animals, court-ordered counseling, no-contact provisions, and full restitution to cover the animal’s medical care and related costs.
A clear, well-publicized outcome will send a strong message that intentionally torturing an animal—especially with methods designed to cause prolonged suffering—will not be tolerated. Thank you for your commitment to justice for victims who cannot speak for themselves.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]
