I feel no sympathy for these kids going to jail. For the act that they committed, I think thats letting them off easy. I'm sorry, but I can't stand stuff like this.

Agreed. The best punishment I can think of is locking them up in a jail cell where the temperature is about 130 and letting them sit through that for the rest of their lives. I highly, highly doubt these people are redeemable to society at this point anyway.

Agree 100%, I have no sympathy for those two at all.

Re: Making a case for public stonings

So is it because it was a puppy, sure that is evil no doubt, but what about people that kill other animals like squirrel, skunks, and rabbits. Is it because dogs are pets. I still think what these kids did is wrong and I hope they get some time, but what if these kids cooked a rabbit, or some other animal, would there still be all these discussions going on?

In other countries puppies are food, so should they be put to death!

Puppies are cute. Duh.

Animal cruelty, human cruelty...it all makes me sick. You folks should see what people in China do to live dogs and cats (standing on their heads and skinning them alive) for fashion purposes and for the making of stuffed animals. Good thing those products are illegal to import into the United States. As for those kids...I say lock them up and toss the key down a well.

ATLANTA (Feb. 10) - Two teenage brothers were each sentenced to 10 years in prison for torturing a puppy by cooking it in an oven.

Joshua Moulder, 17, and Justin, 19, pleaded guilty in January to charges including burglary, criminal damage to property, terroristic threats and cruelty to children.

The brothers brought neighborhood children to see the dead puppy, then threatened to kill them if they reported it, prosecutors said.

Police said they found the dead mixed-breed puppy inside an oven at an apartment community center Aug. 21. Scratch marks were found inside the oven, indicating the puppy had been alive when it was placed inside, prosecutors said.

A necropsy on the 3-month-old dog found its paws and snout had been duct taped and it had been doused with paint before being placed in the oven, prosecutors said.

Authorities also found damaged computers, broken glass and splattered paint on the walls of the newly refurbished community center.

The brothers' first trial ended in a mistrial in December. Their attorney, Timothy Owens, said he had hoped his clients' sentencing would have focused more on rehabilitation than incarceration.

A good job by the court here, imo.

10 years still isnt enough IMO, but actually better than I expected.

Man, if I would have been in the area at the time, I would have LOVED handing out some brutal vigilante justice to these low lifes.
