In case you haven't heard, there is a cruelty case currently going on in Fulton
county (Atlanta, GA) for two teenagers that bound a puppy, set it on fire, and
when it didn't die, they baked it alive in the oven. This case is not getting
much attention from the media here and the public is worried that the teens
will not get the deserved punishment. Please sign the petition to support this
cause:

Below is more information about the case
Thank you,

Hi all,
This report came from someone in the animal rescue community. Please be aware
that although this news contains graphic information, your support is needed in
order to make a difference. John and I are going to court tomorrow. Please go
if you can.
Here is the forwarded piece from the rescuer:
"I confess that I thought the courtroom where 2 teenagers cooked the puppy
alive would be fully packed.
I was shocked to find only a handful of animal lovers present Monday am.
The AJC reporter said not much media attention would be given the case unless
people came alive and called the Metro AJC, the TV stations, CNN, 5, 11, and 2.
Call these stations and ask them to report on this story. Find the numbers in
the book.
The suspects were laughing, smirking, and yawning and mouthing obscenities to
one of the puppy's supporters.
This poor puppy was painted, bound. They then tried to set him on fire (which
didn't work), so they took a rack out of the oven so they could fit this poor
puppy inside.
Scratch marks were found inside the oven from the pup trying to escape the
unimaginable torture.
NOTHING CAN BE DONE NOW FOR THIS TORUTURED PUPPY...OR CAN IT?
IF YOU HAVE EVER DONE ANYTHING THAT HAS MEANT SOMETHING TO YOU, DO THIS. COME
TO THE FULTON COUNTY COURTHOUSE ANY DAY THIS WEEK.
136 PRYOR STREET, ATLANTA, GA 30303
85 south to MLK, Exit 248 A and then stay in left turn lane. Take a left on
Pryor and park as close as you can.
THIS PUPPY'S LIFE IS OVER. THE CASE IS NOT. THE OUTCOME DEPENDS ON YOU.
IF YOU CANNOT ATTEND CALL THE MEDIA AND EVERYONE YOU KNOW."
