AT THE VERY LEAST SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT THIS. TRY TO PUT MAXIMUS IN YOUR TOP FRIENDS OR TOP 40 WHATEVER IT IS...JUST SO THIS INCIDENT GETS EXPOSURE. WE CANNOT ALLOW THIS TO BECOME A SIMPLE LOCAL ISSUE THAT GETS MENTIONED IN ONE OR 2 PAPERS AND GOES AWAY. THIS ACT NEEDS TO BE USED AS THE JUSTIFICATION FOR STRICTER AND TOUGHER LAWS. WHEN YOU LOOK AT MAXIMUS...IMAGINE IT WAS YOUR DOG! WOULD YOU POSSIBLY TAKE THIS MORE SERIOUSLY?

EVEN THOUGH THIS IS UNRELATED TO THE MAXIMUS CASE, I THOUGHT IT'S WORTH SHOWING BECAUSE YOU CAN SEE HOW FED UP PEOPLE ARE WITH THESE KINDS OF DISGUSTING ACTS

About me: MAXIMUS WAS A 2 YEAR OLD PIT BULL MIX DOG. AS THIS
SITE WAS BEING MADE IT WAS REPORTED THAT A SUSPECT HAS BEEN
CHARGED, HIS OWNER. MAXIMUS WAS CHAINED TO A TREE, TORTURED,
AND THEN HAD GASOLINE POURED ON HIM AND HE WAS SET ON
FIRE...LEFT TO DIE. UNFORTUNATELY, HE DID. HE WASN'T JUST KILLED, HE SUFFERED EXTENSIVELY. UP
TO 60% OF HIS BODY WAS BURNED. HE GOT INJECTIONS, BLOOD TRANSFUSIONS, AND HE UNDERWENT NUMEROUS
SURGERIES.
THIS DOG, EVEN AFTER BEING TORTURED BY A HUMAN BEING, STILL
WAS TRUSTING ENOUGH TO LICK THE HANDS OF
THE VETS HELPING HIM. AFTER MUCH WORK WAS DONE AND IT WAS
GETTING HARDER AND HARDER TO SAVE HIM, HE WAS PUT INTO A
DRUG INDUCED COMA AND LATER DIED FROM HIS WOUNDS. THIS CRIME
TOOK PLACE IN SUFFOLK COUNTY, IN THE TOWN OF BRENTWOOD, NY ON JULY 12TH. MAXIMUS DIED ON JULY 17TH AFTER A LONG STRUGGLE. IN THE WORDS OF A VET WHO WAS TREATING HIM "HE WAS LOVING UP UNTIL THE VERY END"
THIS IS MUCH BIGGER THAN JUST A CASE OF ANIMAL ABUSE. AS WAS MENTIONED IN OTHER NEWS ARTICLES AS WELL AS CASE STUDIES THAT HAVE BEEN DONE...MOST SERIAL KILLERS AND VIOLENT CRIMINALS START OFF WITH TORTURING AND KILLING ANIMALS. THERE NEEDS TO BE TOUGHER ANIMAL CRUELTY LAWS. NOT ONLY TO PROTECT ANIMALS, BUT ALSO TO PROTECT US. SOMEONE THAT WOULD TORTURE ANOTHER LIVING CREATURE BY BURNING IT ALIVE WHILE CHAINED TO A TREE IS NOT SOMEONE YOU WANT SHARING THE SAME SIDEWALK AS YOU...TO BE HONEST YOU DON'T WANT THEM SHARING THE SAME ANYTHING WITH YOU!
IT CANNOT END WITH THIS...WE NEED TOUGHER
LEGISLATION AND LAWS THAT WILL LENGTHEN THE SENTENCES OR AT THE VERY LEAST RAISE THE FINE FOR ANIMAL ABUSE / MURDER...MAINLY BECAUSE , THERE'S A POSSIBILITY AFTER THESE PEOPLE ARE
DONE WITH ANIMALS, THEY'LL EVENTUALLY BE LOOKING FOR BIGGER
CREATURES TO HURT...US! DOGS ARE A MANS BEST FRIEND, SO
LET'S RETURN THE FAVOR...SPREAD THE WORD OF THIS DISGUSTING
ACT AND LET'S TRY TO MAKE SOME NOISE ABOUT IT. I AM IN THE
PROCESS OF CONTACTING VARIOUS MEDIA OUTLETS AND WILL BE
CONTACTING POLITICIANS AS WELL TO TRY AND GET SOME ACTION
TAKEN. IF YOU HAVE IDEAS OR SUGGESTIONS FEEL FREE...OPRAH
WINFREY , SEAN HANNITY & BILL O'REILLY OF FOX NEWS, AND KEITH OLBERMANN OF MSNBC NEWS HAVE BEEN SENT EMAILS EXPLAINING THE SITUATION. SO FAR NO REPLIES BUT THERE WILL BE UPDATES. IF THIS TRAGEDY CAN AT LEAST STIR UP SOME DISCUSSION IN LOCAL GOVERNMENTS AND IN THE RIGHT CIRCLES, MAYBE SOME LAWS WILL BE CHANGED OR SOME NEW ONES ADDED. THE TIME IS RIGHT...CONSIDERING THAT THE MICHAEL VICK DOG FIGHTING SCANDAL IS CURRENTLY GOING ON, IT MAY BECOME A HOT TOPIC.

Who I'd like to meet: DO NOT HESITATE TO REPORT ANIMAL ABUSE!!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH for adding me!!! This was a beautiful animal that did NOT deserve to be put to death at the hands he trusted for safety and love!! I will fopr sure put this in my top friends list he will out of 40 be on my top 12!!
I'm not religious person, but I like this one... So I had to make it into a pic so I could post it online to share with special friends like you. Thanks for being you & doing what you do.
I was wondering if this man has gone to court yet or not. If not I might have some suggestions. Also I was wondering about forums you might be on to help spread the word.
PLEASE SIGN PETITION TO BOYCOTT FL RADIO DJ WHO PROMOTES BSL AND ANIMAL CRUELTY!!!!!
Any Hatred Toward People or Animals Is a Fine Line.
On September 8th, 2009, Cowhead caused an outrage when promoting B.S.L.. Cowhead was promoting animal cruelty to his public. This will not be tolerated! while it was said by one person that the teeth should be removed, they claim it was a joke. He also stated Pit bulls are an abomination from hell, and they should never exist in the first place. On that monday, Cowhead also stated you will never hear of a pit saving a child, they terrorize instead. He is miss informing the public and we are afraid this is going to contribute to a rise in animal abuse, especially for pits.
AND THANKS SO MUCH FOR WORKING SO HARD TO SUPPORT AND HELP SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT SUCH A GOOD CAUSE
YOUR STORY ABOUT MAXIMUS IS VERY SAD. WHATS EVEN SADDER IS THAT STUFF LIKE THIS HAPPENS SO OFTEN. I AGREE 100% THE LAWS NEED TO BE CHANGED TO STOP THIS KINDA OF STUFF FROM HAPPENING. AND YOU ARE SO RIGHT PEOPLE THAT DO STUFF LIKE THIS TEND TO DO MORE HARM TO OTHERS AS WELL . AND YOU ARE RIGHT ITS NO ONE THAT I WANT TO SHARE THE WORLD WITH.
