Man Faces Cat Head Chop Rap (Warning content of link is upsetting)

Hi,

I have read this forum before but just joined as I heard the most awful story near where i live in Glasgow. It has just recently been reported in the papers and is so disgusting it is almost unbelievable.

An Anthony John Docherty (23) from Clarkston near Glasgow has been charged with stealing, torturing, and killing local pet cats. He held the cats for a lengthy period, taped their paws up and subjected them to the most cruel torture imaginable.

The kinds of thing he did included causing severe internal injury (I dread to imagine how), pulling out the insides of the cat and chopping its head off. I understand two poor cats were found in his home alive but in a very bad way.

The BBC are reporting it today too
Please Be Warned This Is VERY GRAPHIC And not for the faint hearted
BBC NEWS | Scotland | Glasgow, Lanarkshire and West | Trial set for cat cruelty accused

I just don't understand how this man could be let out on bail? Poor poor owners of the cats in the area.

God, I wish I hadn't read that, how can thoughts to do things like that come into peoples minds. Makes me ashamed to be human.

re: Man Faces Cat Head Chop Rap (Warning content of link is upsetting)

god awful i wonder what his bloody special terms were what a joke,
animal abusers get off too lightly, some get banned from having animals for a certain amount of years wtf, should never be allowed animals again, and even if they are banned they still get them and no real things are made to ensure they dont get them

I wondered that myself, 'special terms' what does that mean? Promising not to go near an animal or something? I agree completely, is seems animal abusers get ridiculously low sentences and that is if they are sentenced at all...I just cannot understand it.

I believe any crime against animals should be the same if not more severe than the human equivalent.

This is horrible.
I just posted in the cat chat section with other stuff that is happening.

Members please don't think that People in Scotland are all like that 'We're not'

I work with people with mental health issues.
he will have been granted bail pending on psycatric evaluation and kept in a secure unit until he is due to go back to court. I cannot condone what he has done. it is truely awful.
