In Mobile, Alabama, a homeowner’s surveillance video showed a boy allegedly abusing the woman’s dogs in her fenced backyard. The woman was awakened by a loud noise and when she looked outside spotted a boy in her pool area nearly two weeks ago.
According to FoxNews, Emmy Townsend, the owner of the home was thankful her two dogs, Missy and Cooper were not injured. She was shocked and heartbroken when she viewed her surveillance video, and stated she confronted the boy who had been throwing her dogs into the pool. She told authorities the boy seemed unfazed by what he had done.
The video shows the kid appearing to have kicked one dog into the pool and then trying to jump on the other one.
Emmy said she spoke to the child’s mother who apologized for her son’s behavior, however she stated she could not control him.
The 12-year-old suspect has been reported to have been sent to Strickland Youth Center and has been charged with trespassing and animal cruelty.

Serial killers often get started by harming innocent animals. They “graduate” to people…… I think it’s possible that this kid is a sociopath. I hope he gets serious counseling and is able to return to society. If not, then perhaps lifetime incarceration is for the best. Society must be protected from sociopaths……..
