Bring justice to abused animals

The abuse of animals has to be committed by the lowest form of human life.

I’m asking people to be a voice for these animals that are tortured and abused. Especially in the case that will be in front of Circuit Judge Timothy Sheldon on May 31 regarding the cruelty of animals by 43-year-old Phillip Rinn from Aurora. In 1993 he chained his dog to the back end of his car and drove around dragging this poor animal and then he unchained it and drove over this dog to make sure that it was dead. I’m hoping that you will find this hard to get this picture out of your mind as I have.

Then in 2010 he was charged with beating yet another dog. We all need to be a voice for these horrific acts of cruelty toward these animals. Please demand justice from the Kane County State’s Attorney in this case on behalf of these animals.

I’d also like to mention that dog fighting is a felony. Dogs are beaten and abused in training them for dog fights. They spend their short lives caged with minimal human care. The injuries sustained in these fights are severe and fatal. Dogs who may survive die of extreme suffering. If you suspect dog fights or animal abuse, report it.
