Target: David W Prater, District Attorney for Oklahoma County, Oklahoma
Goal: Punish man who allegedly shot pets to discipline children.
In a shocking act of parental discipline, an Oklahoma man allegedly killed his daughter’s pet dogs as punishment for not doing chores. The accused now faces animal cruelty charges and, if found guilty, should receive the maximum available punishment.
The alleged incident began when the teenage girl and her brother were staying with their father. The children allege that when the accused discovered dirty dishes in the sink, he became extremely angry and demanded the children get out of his house. After the girl went home with her mother, she reportedly returned to her father’s house later to find the dogs missing. A witness alleges that the girl’s father, Jeffrey Don Edwards, shot the two dogs living on the premises as retribution for the argument. Authorities later discovered both dogs’ bodies a short distance from the home.
If these allegations prove true, two innocent animals lost their lives because of a domestic dispute. Sign this petition to demand justice for these living beings allegedly left at the mercy of a cruel and violent caretaker.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear District Attorney Prater,
The case of Jeffrey Don Edwards is a stark reminder of the dangers of domestic disputes. As in so many cases, innocent lives were allegedly lost. The circumstances surrounding this animal cruelty case should aggravate, not mitigate, the alleged crime.
An individual who would allegedly harm not one but two beloved pets as a twisted form of “punishment” for his children is not an individual who should be granted leniency. Not only were these animals allegedly executed in a cold, cruel manner, but their bodies were equally coldly disposed of. Further, this reported action has shattered the trust, humanity, and caring that should inform the relationship between a parent and a child. If this man did indeed shoot to kill his child’s cherished pets, he did not just commit animal cruelty. He enacted a destructive form of child abuse.
Please ensure that if found guilty, this alleged abuser will be punished to the fullest extent of the law.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

Throw him in jail and throw away the key !
The most despicable form of punishment! He should be going to prison for a long time and his children would be better off if they never see him again. Those precious pups were innocent!
This man shouldn’t be allowed to see his children anymore. They are traumatized, now.
He should be shot in the same way he did this to these poor innocent dogs and the emotional harm he caused his children! How dare he do something like this, eye for an eye this jerk deserves the maximum jail sentence and in my opinion death!!!
They certainly are for life emotionally and mentally, If he would do this to their beloved pets God only knows what he would do to his own children. He should not even be allowed to see these kids supervised!
i so agree… if it was my dad, i would divorce his sorry ass i would never ever speak to him again… he should not be allowed near any children and should have to register as a neighborhood danger, AFTER HE SERVES TIME!
Treat him as he did the dogs. Leave him for the vultures!!! This is horrid!!
This person should not be allowed around his children. He could do the same thing to them.I pray he will be punished to the fullest extent of the law.God bless these poor children
A unusually cruel person , a true danger to his family , and community -humans and animals alike !!! Court should give him harsh punishment and list him as a dangerous person on his arrest record .
Like children dogs are a gift!
That dirty piece of Shit should be in jail, and never be allowed to be around his kids again! I’m sure they don’t ever want to see him again! What a sick depraved bastard!
God will get justice for these precious angels. Both fur angels & lil angel. God does not like anybody hurting an angel 👼🐕😡
This man should be executed just like he did his child’s dogs. Animals lives are not to just be thrown away.
This evil monster should be imprisoned for life without parole! Two cherished pets were executed needlessly, and his children traumatized. I’m sick at heart for them. He has no right to ever see his children again. Please enforce the law to the maximum extent. Let him be imprisoned, and maybe he’ll experience some repercussions from other inmates for his horrific crime!
He should be shot in the same way he did this to these poor innocent dogs and the emotional harm he caused his children! How dare he do something like this, eye for an eye this jerk deserves the maximum jail sentence and in my opinion death!!!
This monster is a waste of human DNA. This is what I would do to him. First I would put him in the worst prison on earth then tell all the other prisoners he’s a child molester, rapist or whatever it took to anger them enough so they beat and rape him repeatedly and relentlessly til he’s near death. I would then take him out to the woods tie him to a tree covered in fire ants and shoot him as many times as possible in non lethal parts of the body and let him slowly bleed out while all the forest creatures slowly chew on his wounds and the vultures pecks out his eyes. He should suffer as much mental and physical pain as humanly possible til his death at which time he will be taken to that special place in hell.
I think that perhaps you have some severe anger issues and you should see a therapist. There are appropriate punishments and then there are ghoulish behaviors!
I agree, he’s an abusive father
Shoot him like he did the dogs
Kill him. Put him down.
I totally agree!!!!
He should get the death sentence you just don’t kill animals or humans because you have a disagreement or a argument with a child or a assault he should be punished for sure don’t kill him that’s to easy make him suffer
He has anger issues and sounds abusive. He belongs in jail! He murdered those poor pups
Property destruction is abuse, and he should be charged with child abuse as well as animal abuse.
What would this deranged person done if these 2 dogs weren’t there would je have killed his children yes he does need the full extent of the law punishment what ever it is the man just took life without regard for it. As a punishment what in God’s name is wrong with him? Also he should lose any custody rights he had over his children.
This is a clear case of animal abuse as well as child abuse. This man appears to be mentally unstable and a unsafe parent. After reading this one worries what could happen to his daughter with his anger. There should be legal consequences for this act of cruelty,and he should never be able to own or house another animal
on his property.
Please prosecute this horrible person.
This piece of shit deserves an eye for an eye….shot him in both kneecaps
