Dyed poodle vs. dead kitten
http://www.boulderweekly.com/2008052...umissedit.html
Dyed poodle vs. dead kitten On Dec. 11 of last year, Charles Corwin came into a little trouble with the law when he was accused of killing a kitten by bashing its head against a bookcase and then throwing the lifeless body through the cat door. He confessed to police that he bludgeoned the kitty after it chewed a hole through his wife’s oxygen-pump tube. I’m sure we can all understand that. It seems like a natural urge to purchase a small creature that, like all small creatures, gnaws on any nearby item available, and then kill it for doing just that. But, sarcasm aside, what we actually don’t understand is the recent decision by the Boulder County Court system regarding the terms of Corwin’s sentence. During a May 15 hearing to outline the exact terms and conditions of his deferred sentence, Corwin requested that he be able to keep three cats, four kittens and one dog at his home as a comfort to his ailing wife. Like most reasonable people, the judge felt that the home of a kitten killer is not the best place for kittens. Well, sort of. Though Corwin was advised to undergo a mental-health evaluation, lay off drugs and alcohol, and to generally not kill small, defenseless baby animals, he was also granted the right to keep two of his animals. The court stipulated that Corwin must remove all animals from his home, except for one cat and one dog. Except? What did these two remaining prisoners do to deserve that? Apparently the same city that thinks its abusive to dye your poodle with beet juice deems it legitimate for a kitty killer to keep animals. It’s time for our city’s version of animal control to take a trip to the pound. |
