Target: Alexis King, District Attorney of Jefferson County, CO
Goal: Pursue maximum sentence for suspect accused of assaulting dog if found guilty.
A video doorbell in Colorado seemingly captured a shocking and horrific sight. In the footage, a man could apparently be seen kicking, choking, and pummeling a dog of pit bull terrier mix breed. The video quickly circulated on social media, invoking intense outrage.
The suspect in this case has been charged with two counts of animal cruelty. The unnamed person also faces charges of failure to obtain a pet license, indicating the animal involved in the case may have been under the suspect’s care. Both this dog and another dog were reportedly taken for medical treatment.
Sign the petition below to demand this troubling case of alleged cruelty caught on tape be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Ms. King,
The case involving alleged animal cruelty captured by a doorbell video has generated a great deal of interest…so much so that police discouraged activist activity around the court proceedings. Such outrage would prove all the more likely if the allegations do not receive the serious legal consideration they deserve. The accused should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and receive maximum punishment if found guilty.
This city frequently touts its strong relationship with animals and dogs in particular, with events like Bark in the Park. Please demonstrate a commitment to safeguard these precious living beings from harm. Pursue this case with full commitment to ensuring a just outcome.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

Abnormal monster. No merci. Jail sentence.
This man needs punished to the maximum sentence. He is a very cruel man and needs to serve time. Why on earth is so many people mistreating animals today. This needs to stop so that people get the picture that they will have to serve time and not let off with a slap on the wrist. He should never be allowed to own or be around any kind of animals EVER ! He is a very cruel and sick man.
This vile dog abusing scumbag must have the death penalty performed. A slow and agonising death is essential! Prison is not adequate!
Why is he not named???
This vile cretin must be put to death.
If you have ever owned a pet which hopefully you considered part of your family this pos deserves the stricted punishment you can give ..this is horrible how this pos treated a poor defenseless fur baby …i cannot understand why pepple can be so evil…they do this kind of stuff to animals elderly and children need to be put out of this world better yet send him to the prison in arizona i think called the tent prison let him work and live in the heat maybe the prisoner will give him what he deserves …he is a risk to society and needs to be put away …why because if put on probation whats to say he wont do this again i beg you do not slap him on the wrist …thank you
It’s disgusting the way animals are tortured and abused the perpetrators need to answer for the cruel pain and neglect they make animals endure there should be stricter laws and severe punishments
