Animal Cruelty - Sanderson WV

I worked at South Central Regional Jail for a year. I'm thankful that I don't work there now. The man accused of this past week's evil, demonish, treatment of a poor dog is currently housed at South Central after his arrest today. Any human who could do the things this man did to this dog, would in all probabilty do the same to a human if the idea crossed his mind. I'm not alone in this feeling. A local phychiatrist stated as much in a news segment on TV the other night. Local people were appalled and a reward for the arrest of this individual quickly climbed to over ten thousand dollars! It takes true evil in a person's mind to prompt them to such depraved behavior. I've actually been nervous knowing someone like this was loose in the area. Now he is behind bars, and like the animal he is, I hope he stays locked there for the rest of his life. It's a known fact that almost every serial killer started their "careers" with the torture of animals. So, do we turn this person loose to move on to unleashing his evil on humans? I think not.
