This is Antonio Furlow from Georgia and was he was charged with animal cruelty for the bizarre step he took to keep the pitbull, Bullet, from eating, drinking or speaking. The Snellville Police Department said on its Facebook page; this arrest was a rare occurrence when they enjoyed locking someone up in jail. They wrote, "Taking someone's freedom is not the fun part of police work...Well...we enjoyed taking this guy in. It's not surprising that our K9 Unit volunteered to assist detectives in the warrant service. Heartbreaking the way the dog was treated." The pitbull was found on Thursday severely dehydrated and malnourished.
According to police, the pup was found in very poor shape. His mouth was extremely swollen and he was unable to open it. His tongue was sticking out and bleeding. The responding officer wrote, "The sight of the dog was heartbreaking and disturbing to all involved." So, would anyone else like to see this guy's mouth taped shut to see how he likes it?
Furlow was transported to County jail and he also may face a drug charge after authorities found marijuana in his apartment. The dog may have to undergo a lengthy recovery process. As far as the tissue damage, it may be a little more serious than they initially thought and the status of the dog is up in the air at the moment, which is heartbreaking. How can someone do this to a defenseless pet is beyond me. I'd like to know where the roommate was this whole time? Did he not have something to say about the treatment of this dog? This is ridiculous and if the state of Georgia had any sense, they would punish Furlow by seriously covering his mouth with electrical tape for the same amount of time the dog had it on his mouth. Yes, that's torture, but it's okay to do that to a dog? This guy is an animal too. I seriously would like to hear from the roommate.
