In Louisville, Kentucky, a former employee of the Stark County Humane Society has been indicted for animal abuse after using a metal hook to beat the dog. Diquan O’Neal Hall charged with prohibitions concerning companion animals under Goddard’s Law.
According to CantonRepNews, court documents state Hall used a “metal hooked drain puller” in the kennel and hit the dog in the face. The dog suffered punctures to his face, but has since made a complete recovery.
The humane society issued the following statement after learning of the abuse and reviewing the surveillance videos:
“The mission for the Stark County Humane Society has always been and remains today to be the protection of animals. It is our goal to protect animals from any mistreatment, abuse and cruelty. We house animals and protect animals in an effort to obtain a safe home that would eventually adopt them. Any abuse or cruelty to any animal is 100% against our mission.”
Hall has since been fired.

I WOULD BEAT THIS UGLY LOW LIFE SCUM WITH THE SAME HOOK TILL EVERY LIMB CAME OFF. GIVE ME A FEW MINUTES WITH THIS POS BASTARD SO I CAN MAKE SURE THIS BITCH DOESN’T EVER WALK AGAIN.
I agree with everything Gizmos Mom said and also what Pamela D. said. Hope this scum gets exactly what he deserves and more.
Firing this Ethnic Evil Barbaric Moronic Scum::: Is only a start!!! he should have charges pressed against him for abuse, and he should be profiled in the communities surrounding a 4 state area so his name and creditionals are made known in any type of employment that involves taking care of companion animals, humans, is out of reach for him… Let him scrub garbage trucks as that is what he is GARBAGE BIG TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!
The evil scum should be taught a variety of different uses of a metal hook … On HIM!
