LAWRENCE, Mass. (AP) — Authorities are offering a $1,000 reward for information that leads to the apprehension and conviction of the person torturing and killing cats in a Lawrence neighborhood.
MSPCA law enforcement officials on Thursday announced the reward after learning that a ninth cat was found dead. A necropsy revealed the cat found last week had a fractured skull, spine and detached tail, as if it had been swung by the tail against a hard surface.
A cat found dead in November died of a hematoma and a fractured skull.
Police Chief John Romero tells The Eagle-Tribune he’s concerned because people who are abusive to animals often progress to crimes against humans.
Whoever is killing the cats is subject to felony animal cruelty charges.
I’m really starting to hate people!
Freakin Sicko!
Well I hope they have made this aware to the Lawrence residents so they can keep their cats inside. so far 9 cats have been tortured and killed and they are just getting this to the media now?. Good luck finding the ******* before they move onto something else and torture more animals. I do have to ask if they were not worried about the person moving onto killing and torturing humans would they even try to find the person in question?.
I like cats. With salt
Well good Alphafox then I hope you like it when the sick ******* comes after you because they always go to people after done torturing animals.
Dr. Poudrier with her CSI: Springfield analysis. Lol!
Dr. Poudrier are you a crime investigator or PETA advocate?
I doubt the investigator but DEFINITELY a PETA member, birenstock wearing, Northampton loving, Sarah Macghulan listening too, Smith College degree holding, cat hoarding,man-hating girl. Lol!
You touted yourself as the CSI:Springfield expert pet crimes & I bet thats your….umm… “friend” in the picture with you.
both shawnm
An investigator of what seeing if pencils have erasers before they’re sold at the dollar store. I dont what that has to do with animal cruelty Detective Poudrier. You tell me. Dont be late for your PETA meeting tonite with your “friend”. Im just questioning your investigating skills or lack there of.
Ok so not Smith College probably Elms College. Tell your “friend” not to run me over with her Prius if she sees me. How many rainbow flags do you have up there in northampton.
You are not an investigator.A Republican? Hows your “friend” feel about that? You tell us where Im wrong Dectective Poudrier.
How many cats do you & your “friend”have at your den?
actually you have me all wrong because i am none of those things. Guess your not the sleuth..
oh shawnm ha ha ha ha.. I am an investigator and animal lover but not a “girl lover” or associated with hamp, birkenstocks or smith college. Even if i was any of those things what does that have to do with the person torturing animals and leaving them to suffer?
Thats what I thought Dectective Poudrier. Have a nice nite @ your PETA meeting with your “friend”.
I don’t know how your questioning anything about me. Tell me where I am wrong? I have compassion for all people and their choice of preference. Even respect for people who have a job regardless of what they are doing for a job. Why are you insulting all those things? If someone wants to be ***, *******, bisexual or straight all the more power to them actually speaking out and believing they are ok and loved and normal. if someone works at the dollar store they at least have a job and are not taking free handouts from the government.
They do actually.I am that smart Detective Poudrier.Im not a genius but thanks babe. You & you “friend” have a good PETA meeting.I hope the marriage in Vermont works out with your “friend”.
I knew it. Its nothing to be ashamed of being a ******* babe. Be proud of who you are dectective.My advice though 18 cats is a tad bit much even if you guys dont have kids (cats are probably your kids).BE PROUD SAY IT LOUD YOUR ***. ITS OK. But dont pretend you know it all.Im happy your happy now free to live openly as a *** women with your partner.The same goes for being apart of PETA. I hope I helped babe. No thanks neccessary.
Think about your female spouse, the 18 cats, UCONN/Sun womens basketball, northampton, etc. whatever you people you do, your wedding in Vermont, dont concentrate on me.Again glad I can help.
shawnm you are so right. I am a ******* and love everything you said earlier, even Elizabeth Warren.. We have 18 cats and love every single one of them. They are all equal in the household and everyone feels loved and no one feels out of place. we are all so happy and live life so care free. We will make sure not to run you over with our “green” car because we like to save the environment from all things toxic and hateful things. May you find the same in your life. Stay happy
Dont think of me think of the 18 cats you & your lover care for. Remember me at your ceremony in Vermont.
We will have a nice night and nice life. love all around. you are so smart to figure it all out and just know how and who people are. people must just hang on to every word you say waiting for the next genius comment to come out of your mouth.
thanks shawnm we will be thinking of you tonight.
well i didn’t say i was a PETA member so your still wrong and i have always been proud of who i am.
