Target: Maricopa County Attorney Rachel Mitchell, Arizona
Goal: Hold the perpetrator accountable for the cruel shooting of Marvin, the Golden Retriever.
Shocking details emerged from Phoenix where Marvin, a 2-year-old Golden Retriever mix, endured severe pain after being shot in his left hind leg. This heartbreaking incident left him bleeding, dehydrated, and in shock. The urgent call for justice arises from this cruel act of violence against an innocent animal.
Upon discovery, Maricopa County Animal Care and Control swiftly intervened, taking Marvin to the Arizona Humane Society for immediate care. An x-ray revealed a severe fracture in his limb. Over the weeks, dedicated medical staff performed numerous procedures to manage his wounds, administer antibiotics, and alleviate his pain with medication.
The ongoing recovery of Marvin at a foster home underscores the dire need for legal intervention. Those responsible for such cruelty must face the consequences of their actions to prevent future incidents. We demand that the local authorities take immediate action to investigate and bring justice for Marvin.
