Man Gets Prison For Killing Kittens

HAGERSTOWN, Md. -- A Maryland man has been sentenced to nearly a year in
prison for killing four of his girlfriend's kittens by throwing them into a
fire.

Robert Tomlin has been ordered to spend 341 days in prison for violating his
probation by moving back in with Kelli Green and her five remaining cats
after he pleaded guilty in November to aggravated animal cruelty.

Under a plea bargain, Tomlin was supposed to have avoided contact with Green
and her animals.

Green said they both were drunk the night the cats died and she barely
remembers what happened

Why in the hell did she let him move back in?! Sometimes I just want to
shake the crap out of stupid women like this.

Was Green sentenced? Will she be allowed to acquire any more animals,
other than her next boyfriend who will probably throw HER into a fire?

I wonder if I could get sentenced to the same prison as this Tomlin
guy. I have to go visit my brother in Maryland anyway. Holding up a
gas station wouldn't take that long.

LOL, you GO Will!
It's just too bad SHE wasn't given a prison sentence for sheer
stupidity. I don't get this, I really don't. I've visited with the
people from the battered women's shelter here a lot, because we board
their animals for them. I just don't understand the psychological hold
that some women let abusive guys get hold on them.
I can say with some certainty that if someone threw my cats in a fire
I'd end up in prison.. Nothing would make me lose control worse than
someone torturing a helpless kitten/puppy/child/elderly person
etc.etc. Gah! This burns me up just reading about it.

Me too, Jill. Sounds like she's not a great cat person candidate in
the first place if she could allow such a thing to happen to ANY
animal in her care. I can't stand thinking of the pain and fear those
poor kittens went through.

I think this guy needs to have a 'special' cell mate: the guy who
whacked Jeffery Dahlmer while he was in prison.

Just thinking about what this guy did makes my stomach hurt, and I can
feel my blood pressure has gone WAY up. Grrrr....

Yeah - somehow "We were both kinda drunk" doesn't strike me
as much of an excuse for ANYTHING!

the sentence he got is nowhere near long enough, I mean how many
innocent lives did he snuff out? lets hope that neither him nor his
obviously retarded girlfirend ever have kids (either with each other
or different partners) and that their genes die with them.

I agree thuogh that this man shoudl have a very 'special' cellmate,
get a taste of his own medicine.

this story just makes me feel physically sick to think about it, they
both should have been locked up, absolutely nasty.
