Victory - sort of

Yesterday, Thursday 7/2, I was out with members of the Crestview Kitty Group in front of the Shalimar courthouse.  We were there rallying for the conviction of Shawn Thayer, accused of murdering his friend's pit bull named Bugsy.  Thayer killed Bugsy with a meat cleaver, hacking the dog over 80 times.

About a dozen of us were out in the heat, including Jojo & Tressel.  One of the best moments came when a mother and her teen daughter came up to me.  The mother said her daughter was an animal advocate, but had never seen a rally like ours.  I told her a little about the group, and that we would be excited to have them join us.  The pair then spoke with Jason Williams, and he got their contact info.  Get 'em when they're young!

Regarding the case, the court determined Thayer was incompetent to stand trial at this time.  He will be sent to a mental facility for 6 to 9 months, or until he becomes competent, at which time he will still have to face the charges pending against him.
