On October 11th, in the town of Didsbury Alberta, a couple out for a walk found a female collie-lab cross lying in the street. The dog's injuries were so severe, the veterinarian called to the scene had to euthanize the animal on the spot. The dog's legs were bound together with duct tape, and its head was wrapped in a bag. There was a tow rope around the dog's neck. The dog's neck, pelvis, back and skull were fractured. Investigators believe that the six or seven year old dog had been beaten prior to being tied up and hitched to a vehicle, then dragged for blocks. There was no apparent motive to the crime.

Daniel Charles Haskett, 19, of Didsbury Alberta has been charged under the Criminal Code with injuring/endangering an animal and causing unnecessary suffering to an animal. His 17 old accomplice, whose identity is protected by the Youth Criminal Justice Act, is charged with the same offences.

I added the following comments, which are apparently viewable only by the Petition author:

The perpetrators should be charged to the fullest extent of the law, including but not limited, if appropriate, with theft, burglary, disorderly conduct (their actions were intended to anger others). The Prosecutor should insist on jail, and the Sentences be ran Consecutive, NOT Concurrently. Further, the Prosecutor should insist that Probation be Denied. Further, in the event that Parole is ever granted, the Perpetrators should be required to pay for and receive intensive one-on-one counseling (not mind-altering drugs), and to do substantial community service including giving talks on what they did.
