I volunteer for a Baltimore erucse and I have read the allegations on this blog. If they are true (and with so many people coming forward and giving accounts that are so similar, including children who volunteered there how could they not be) then not only should the director and the head of the board be fired, they should be prosecuted for animal cruelty?The County needs to withhold the taxpayer money AND every person who is outraged by this needs to call the media, get together, go into the CCSPCA and SIT IN and OCCUPY that facility until CCSPCA agrees to:1.) Fire the director, the staff who have participated in this, AND the head of the board of directors.2.) Take the Wicomico County's offer of caring for the CCSPCA animals.This shelter is obviously the Abu Ghraib for animals.I am willing to participate in the sit-in if we can get a crowd.

Scusate l'intervento che esula dall'argomento proposto ma verroi sottoporVi queste domande:Perch sono state eliminate queste funzioni dal sito?:I voti nei post sono stati eliminati, perch ?Penso che se un intervento risulta essere maleducato o insolente, sottolineando la disapprovazione degli altri utenti si instauri in chi l ha lasciato un timore o una riflessione su quanto ha scritto.Altrimenti, a meno che non ci sia una supervisione accurata degli amministratori, essendo il messaggio anonimo si potrebbero verificare degli abusi. Bannarli servirebbe a poco essendo l iscrizione anonima. Questo senza nulla togliere agli iscritti che mi sembra siano molto corretti e responsabili.Un altra cosa, molto pi importante di questa, ho notato che non pi possibile scrivere recensioni. E una cosa momentanea o c stata qualche decisione in merito? Sarebbe un peccato perch molto utile sapere com' un determinato gioco e come viene considerato

she called the State's Attorney and eatkld to them. It says they're going to talk to you about it too and they welcome your input. I thought you said you already had already filed a complaint. What's the right story here? Were you trying to get an invesgitation going or did the SPCA have to do it to straighten things out.Smitty is getting very confused here. Why didn't say something to the Cecil Whig too?Smitty

These sentences are a slap on the wrist. Drug abuse and sales usually go along with dog fighting, its a breeding ground for crime. Dog Fighting needs to be made a FELONY in the state of NY.

Thank you, Mr. HIcks, for bravely confronting horrific things like this. I too would like to learn more about how to help push legislation that gives more punishment, including preventing the defendants for ever owning pets again. As well, I'm disappointed that I can't find news about this case, though if a dog who looks like a "pit bull" nips someone, it makes headlines everywhere.

well good riddance!!! i can't stand animal abusers and pit bull fighting is probably one of the worst things you can make your pet do i just can't understand how someone could intentionally cause harm to an animal and not feel the slightest bit of remorse and the time sentenced to them is just not enough i say 1 year in prison and restriction from owning a pet EVER again

While I'm thankful that the penalties are becoming more severe, 3 months in jail is nothing. How about 3 years in jail followed by 10 years of probation and the stipulation that are never to own an animal? It seems fair from my standpoint. You do the crime, expect to do the time. Period!

This is good but I don't think they got enough punishment. Wish they were thrown in jail for at least 10 yrs to show other monsters that this will not be tolerated and should be made to wear signs on their backs"Animal Abuser".

I just don't get it. 3 Months..hell that's probably a vacation for these A-holes. I would love to see these guys pay restitution in the form of vet bills for all the dogs that are turned over to humane societies or rescues that are harmed in dog fighting. Obviously the small amount of jail time is not harsh enough...hit them in their pockets. Maybe when they can't EAT or are HOMELESS, they will GET THE POINT!

Thank You and God Bless Terry Mills and his staff at ASPCA First and Foremost! I would not have the stamina, guts or professionalism not to "lose it" with people like these. Keep up your work Terry! I, too, though, am very sad, frustrated and discouraged, that these CRIMINALS are getting the proverbial "slap on the wrist" And these are FELONY ANIMAL CHARGES! No Jail Time or 3 months? Our Judicial System is very backward and does NOT let the punishments fit the crimes! In NYC we would LIKE to think these sick FELONS will be followed up on not to own animals for 5 years (IT SHOULD BE NEVER!!) but there is just no man power to enforce this. I'd like to see "SHAR-ON" and that other psycho-path have to work with animals at a Humane Soceity under direct supervision the entire time for 5 years as well UNPAID. WHEN IS the suppossedly Forward Thinking Great U.S.A. going to get that these people are serious violent offenders and move on to people? Let's get them off the streets NOW hopefully before they start killing more animals AND PEOPLE and profitting from dog fighting! Please support The ASPCA. What is 25.00 in a whole year? THANK YOU!

Although I'm glad Terry helped and these asshole got punished it's still not enough. These animals suffer greatly at the hand of these monsters and they pay the price because most are put down while they get to live. The only way to do that and I tell this to people constantly, contact ur representatives or senator and ask tem to co-sponsor legislation so that when things like this happen you can hold up the law and show no mercy toward these individuals, copration, or anyone who willingly abuses these animals Oh...yeah may these monsters rot in hell!

They should NEVER be allowed to own animals again, not just for 5 years. NEVER. But I'm glad they're not off completely. Something is better than nothing, and too many get nothing at all. We all need to get out and vote people into office that will fight for animal rights. If we want stiffer penalties, we have to make it happen.

For all the work Terry Mills and his task force have put in and the damage to the dogs, the sentence is way too light. If our judicial system doesn't value the lives of animals then how can we expect the monsters out there to think twice about their criminal actions? Ugh...
