Donate to Reward Fund Here

This is terrible news, especially in a place that's so dog friendly! The Keys are small enough that somebody has to know something, and hopefully they'll come forward. The site www.crueltyfreekeys.com is taking donations for a reward fund. It's really easy. If the fund doesn't end up being used for a reward it goes to local shelters. Unfortunately sometimes it take a financial incentive like this to find this kind of person...

Need coconut telegraph help

You know the ass that did this? Post it here. Beatings, murders, and this sort of thing is becoming far too commonplace. The police just sit on their asses while mayhem abounds. NO ONE patrols!! They just sit, Donnie Lee poses for pictures, and the public suffers! Ticket boats, trailers, and arrest some bums and the arrest record looks great. No pride or work ethic is evident in law enforcement in Key West. We are left to defend ourselves.

www.crueltyfreekeys.com is

www.crueltyfreekeys.com is taking donations for a reward fund. It would be nice if someone would just do the right thing and turn them in BUT if not, maybe a reward will help.

water board the sob

taste of what he/she did would be nice. Water Board the person(s) contributing to the reward fund for the arrest. At most trials , the victim or family of the victim have a chance to speak but who will speak against this cruel person

Drowned Dog

This pisses me off to no end! Id like to see the person who is responsible for this discusting crime suffer the same death. The poor thing never had a chance.

Raising money for Reward Fund to find this person!

The nonprofit organization APA SPCA has set up a fund to raise money for a reward so that this person can be found and prosecuted. All money raised will stay in a fund for one year or until it is paid out (whichever is first). Please donate at www.apaspca.org just click on the ALERT link. - Marcie Sapp, APA SPCA Fundraising and Development Director, Florida Keys Resident

I hope they find this person and do the same to them.

The poor baby suffered when alive, I'm sure, and suffered a frightening death.

I can't imagine anyone being that cruel. Oh wait! I have a sister who would do that in a minute. Evil is among us everywhere.

MURDERER!

This Bastard has no morals. I would like to see this idiot suffer 10 fold.

I hate people.

I hate people.

And we live.....AMONG these sick bastards.

It's no joke. We live and work among people who are CAPABLE....of doing things like this. Think about it. How on earth...can anyone with a conscience......even consider doing things like this to innocent animals with no means to protect themselves? THIS WAS NO ACCIDENT. Forget about being 'PC". That...has never gotten us anywhere. It's sick. Next time....it's a wife or a child. Next time....it's a booze or drug induced murder by bludgeoning. Something like that. OH! I forgot. Those things....are happening here in the Keys as well. "Paradise" ? Not for all evidently. Hell...is more like it. What do you know. These maggots.....need to be stopped. Report weirdos that talk about doing this stuff....even if they say that they are joking. They aren't . They're "contemplating" .

That's Just Sick

That poor puppy. I hope whoever did this goes to prison.

I hope they catch the jerk

I hope they catch the jerk and do the same thing to him or her.
