In El Paso, Texas, two parents of a four-year-child mauled to death by the family’s starving dogs have been arrested. On Friday, detectives arrested Brittany Brooks, 27 and Ashley Brooks, 29 charging them with causing injury to a child – a second degree felony. On July 27, the child Jacob Brooks was killed after four family dogs attacked him. The dogs have all since been euthanized.
According to KFoxNews, Jacob had been in the backyard at a home located on Morelia Road where the dogs lived. The little boy had been left in an enclosed trampoline when the dogs allegedly attacked. Three of the dogs were German shepherd mixes and one dog was described as a pit bull mix. Neighbors and relatives stated the dogs had not been fed and would cry at night. El Paso Animal Services stated the dogs were emaciated and had not been socialized, although family members stated the dogs had never shown any aggression.
The El Paso police found the child’s battered body in the yard.
Both women are in custody at the El Paso County Detention Facility in lieu of $7,500 bond. The women also had unrelated warrants pending.

POS POS KARMA….
Couldn’t have said it better myself.
I agree. These dogs should have been sent to be rehabilitated and rehomed. This makes me sick and very angry.
Agree. They both should be up on murder charges, child and dogs
Agree 100%
Horrible creeps how can they do this evil parents should be mauled & die Rest In Peace little boy bg
Dogs suffered because of owners, and then destroyed. Yes, a 4 yr. old child died, and dogs ultimately loose as well as any relatives who cared about this child. It’s obvious from their faces that the could care less about their child and definitely not 3 dogs since they let them starve to the point they attacked their own child. Jail forever in solitary after prison inmates give them “jail” justice.
Unbelievable. I hope for bad karma to these POS’s!
I feel sorry for both the dogs and the little boy!!! Those women need to be charged and thrown into Prison for a VERY LONG TIME!!!!
Well Let’s see here the Mexican Senorita could afford elaborate tattoo’s to beautify her VOLUPTOUS body for self gratification , but couldn’t afford to feed the four dogs they had acquired… but can’t afford to feed. These 2 Morons are despicable !!! I hope they don’t get the Ole Texas SLAP on the little finger and YIPPE off they go again after causing the 4 innocent STARVING DOGS TO BE NEEDLESSLY MURDERED FOR BEING STARVED!!! WOW
O Penny – YOU said it best. As usual, the dogs are euthanized because of what these two deplorable c-nts did – Texas, YOU once again proved your total lack of humanity towards abused animals and euthanized the wrong species –
What kind of idiots leave a 4 year old child unattended with 4 big dogs like this in the first place? Again the dogs are euthanized because of idiot humans! Nothing will be done about these morons, they were most likely picked up more for the “unrelated” warrants in the first place!
It looks like those too fucking fat slobs haven’t missed any meals because of them the little child is dead in the dogs are dead they both should be fucking hung
Like and agree
GRRRRRR! They put down the wrong “animals”. The dogs should have been given a chance at being good citizens. Surely they would have LOVED to be rescued. Geez! Makes me sick on all levels.
Two vile pieces of shit. Starving dogs by two stuffed fat disgusting humans????????. They should never be allowed to have animals or children ever again.
Why have dogs and children when you’re incapable of caring for them? The dogs and child are now dead and the two fat putrid pigs who are responsible for their death are only charged with causing injury to a child. Where’s the justice for the child and the 4 abused and starved dogs? Disgusting!!!!
Sureeee……blame and murder the dogs. Then these sick two monsters are probably out on bail and will skip the country!
They have no defense, deserve no trial, throw them in jail, lock the door and NEVER RETURN.
