A Michigan man accused of killing seven puppies will not be headed to jail for the crime. As reported by Mlive.com, Saginaw County Circuit Judge Andre R. Borrello sentenced 26-year-old Quintay H. Donald to 18 months of probation and a small fine, in addition to an order to not possess animals for the rest of his life.

Donald still facings multiple charges related to drug dealing including: possession with intent to deliver methamphetamine, possession with intent to deliver heroin, separate counts of conspiracy to commit those offenses, and two counts of possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony.

The animal cruelty case

Borrello faced animal cruelty charges after bringing nine sick puppies to a veterinary clinic in April 2018. The puppies had been administered horse dewormer. The veterinary hospital gave Borrello a treatment plan and he left with the pups – later the same day, seven of the puppies were found dead in a ditch near the clinic and one was still alive. The ninth puppy was not located.

Borrello pleaded guilty to one count of killing or torturing an animal, a felony, and the prosecution dismissed six additional counts of the same charge. He claims that he took bad advice when he decided to administer horse deworming medication to the pups and admitted that he should have done research instead. No word on how or why the puppies ended up in ditch.

  1. Can’t fix stupid and the dogs pay with their lives. This POS deserved a lengthy prison term AND should NEVER be able to have any animals in the future!!!

    I don’t think the judge gave this POS enough of a punishment for his cruelty…… Those precious treasures deserved justice for having their lives stolen……..

    This POS was (& is) pure evil and there is a reserved space for him in Hell where he will burn forever for his cruelty……

    I am very sorry about the horrible loss of all these precious treasures…….. I know that all of you are in Heaven. Please look for MacKitty and join his wonderful snuggle buddies group and RIP amongst loving friends…….
