Target: Joseph D. Early Jr., District Attorney for Worcester County, Massachusetts
Goal: Punish the man who allegedly buried a dog alive, leading to the dog’s death.
A dog suffered and later died when he was allegedly buried alive. The suspect reportedly buried the dog because he wasn’t getting along with his new kitten. Demand justice for this innocent dog.
“I got a message from him that Chico passed away last night. I said, what do you mean he passed away? How is that possible?” stated Kaylee Belanger, an acquaintance of the suspect. Belanger reportedly found the 18-year-old Shih Tzu buried alive in Richard Piquard’s backyard following the suspicious conversation. Chico was wrapped in a blanket beneath a pile of freshly laid dirt, Belanger stated, and hidden underneath a rock. Per veterinarians, Chico had internal injuries and dehydration from the prolonged exposure, and he had to be euthanized to ease his suffering.
Piquard was arrested and charged with one count of animal cruelty. Sign below and demand that he receives the maximum penalty possible, if convicted.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear District Attorney Early,
A dog was reportedly buried alive in a shocking case of animal cruelty. The dog suffered serious injuries that led to his death. We demand justice for this poor dog.
Wrapped in a blanket and covered in dirt, Chico was barely alive after he was reportedly rescued from Richard Piquard’s backyard. Per police, an acquaintance of Piquard found the 18-year-old Shih Tzu buried beneath freshly laid dirt and concealed by a large rock. Piquard had recently gotten a new kitten, the acquaintance stated, and Chico and the kitten were not getting along. Chico reportedly suffered from internal injuries and dehydration. He had to be euthanized to ease his suffering. Police arrested Piquard and charged him with one count of animal cruelty.
The person who caused this poor dog such suffering must be punished. We demand that you seek the maximum penalty in this case.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

Why can’t All Animal Abusers be judge by Animal Advocates? I’m pretty sure more justice will prevail in cases of abuse!
Yes why not? There should be a jury of animal lovers or why not veterinarians?
You pile of human excrement. Bury this sorry F8888r alive and leave it to rot. You cursed waste of oxygen. This cursed thing should never be allowed near any animal ever again.
Cut all hands of abuses and Laws must be more severe to Save all Animals from Sadistic
I hope this new kitten was removed from this horrible monster – he should never be allowed be around animals ever again!
Yes why not? There should be a jury of animal lovers or why not veterinarians?
I have a cat that looks like yours. Beautiful aren’t they.
Its pretty simple that this poor dog was beat and deprived of water and possibly food too and if that wasn’t enough buried alive. Somebody needs to beat the crap out of this scumbag and bury him alive, I guess I can only wish. Please send this prick to jail for life of this dog. Please remove this poor kitten before its dead too. Rest in peace little sweet dog.
RICHARD PIQUARD murdered this sweet innocent senior dog!!! God Dam this vile monster – how could he do such a horrific thing???Agree with all others’ comments!! Thank God Kaylee Belanger
had the sense & morals to report her idiot bastard “friend”! SIGNED & SHARED!!!
I would love to torture, burn and bury this sick f**k. Eye for an eye you psycho.
Piece of shit human garbage ..hell has a special spot for you
Piece of shit human garbage ..hell has a special spot for you…prick
Throw the book at the worthless POS. No living breathing FEELING creature should ever have to go throw what this poor old dog went through at the hands of this filth…if he could do it to an animal he could do it to a person….Karma’s a bitch and it ALWAYS comes back to you…. RIP sweet furbaby.
I am ready,willing and able to help implement the essential death penalty on this POS dog murderer!!!! An eye for an eye!!!!!!
I totally agree with you Michelle !
They’re ALL “shocking cases” of unimaginable cruelty! It’s gotten so unbelievable, I often wish a massive meteor would just wipe out this entire planet…all because of these horrendous subhumans plaguing our world.
Animals Have Feelings, Like some humans, They Deserve To Have Respect???
This is a PREMEDITATED ACT OF CRUELTY! I heard he plead not guilty, I pray the judge sees who this evil monster really is!
He did this because he was worried. I’m worried about the welfare of the kitten as well as what happened to this poor little dog. This man should not have animals full stop.
Same damn fate no questions asked mass lets too many animal abusers get off soo easily its sickening!harsher punishments for animal and human murderers!!!
IMMEDIATELY PUT THE MONSTER IN SOLITARY CONFINEMENT FOR LIFE AND FIND A LOVING HOME FOR THE KITTEN.
Put this POS in a hole fulled with dirt & leave him there to die!! Find loving home for the poor kitten before he kills it as well. He does not deserve to live. No animal should be treated this way.
I agree with Jacqui. First of all, get that kitten away from him and lock that man up! That kitten needs a loving home, because when it gets old, that man will most likely just bury it! Most of these animal abusers on this petition site don’t really care about the animals that live with them and even those animals that don’t . There is no respect or empathy within them. But how do you stop so many people from acquiring animals before any abuse occurs? It’s hard enough to stop them AFTER it happens. If anyone figures this out, the world will be a better place for all.
no prison – shoot immediately or buried alive
