Moon *Question empiricism. http://members.cox.net/tiffany.moon/resume.htm 1. URGENT WARNING! ANIMAL TORTURER HAS RELOCATED TO SOUTHERN CA! Shon Rahrig the convited tortuer of cats and dogs in Ohio is now in Southern trying to obtain animals from shelters and adoption events. PLEASE warn anyone you encounter trying to place an animal about this very dangerous person. Ohio Court Case: Shon Rahrig, about 30 years old, allegefly adopted 6 or 7 cats and a puppy from various local shelters and allegedly abused them horribly, broke their limbs, put their eyes out, etc. The alleged abuse became known when his girlfriend took one of the victims to a vet to be euthanized. In court he " copped a plea " to avoid the nasty publicity of a jury trial, and confessed to torturing one black and white cat, Misty. Outcome: Shon Rahrig's sentencing was well attended with representatives from many Ohio humane groups and animal rights groups as well as the Channel 6 camera crew. Rahrig did his best to look normal and innocuous, wore a jacket and tie, remained impervious to the glares of the people in attendance and leafed casually through an agenda. After having plead guilty to one count he tried to say " it was a lie " but Kerri Manion presented the CAHS cruelty investigation team's findings. The unfortunate cat really suffered and the report was very painful to listen to. He was only sentenced to 45 days in jail, out of a maximum 90, the last 15 may be converted to work release, by which he was free to leave during the day but had to go back to the jail to sleep and he had to pay for his incarceration. He had to reimburse CAHS $100 for the necropsy of the poor victim. No counseling was mandated but remained at the discretion of his probation officer. Probation is 5 years during which he may not " own " any living thing and his is subject to check-up visits by the Central Ohio Humane So. And NOW this man is in CALIFORNIA!. Please beware and take note. Warn your local Shelters of this man's presence in Southern CA. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
