Too bad the cat didn’t scratch his eyes out before he could cruelly beat it to death. Charged his dog! What are we talking about here, a toy chihuahua?

Ought to be 10 with no parole.
Here in NZ a judge handed out a record sentence of 12 months for animal cruelty. What a joke.

You’re crazy. It’s an animal, not a human.

If the cat scratched him they he was where he shouldn’t have been. All he had to do was walk away. Charged his dog? LOL gimme a break. I think he should pay a fine and do hours and hours of community service cleaning litter boxes. Anyone who would beat a cat to death over being scratched and/or it “charging” his dog, has something very very wrong with them.

Animal cruelty is a felony in Massachusetts punishable by a fine up to $2,500 and up to five years in prison
While this guy is going to jail, repeat offenders gets bailed for murder-sometimes with less than 3 years of jail time. Sad.

Foley, of Stoneham Road in Worcester, claimed he was defending himself from the seven-pound cat. What a pussy....(Foley.)

The putz reportedly CAME BACK LATER after the scratching to clobber the cat to death. Now the putz is complaining the cat’s owner tried to run him over with her car. This could get interesting. I say sic every critter in the neighborhood on him.

Beating a cat to death may not quite rank up there with raping a child, but you can bet his cellmates will view it as a shameful, cowardly act.

Youre crazy. Its an animal, not a human.And doing it in front of kids? What sentence does that merit?
I usually think shrinks are nuts themselves, but one thing that can't be argued is that sociopaths harm animals.

In your books it’s OK to beat an animal to death in front of children? I might be crazy, but you’re a sicko.

Anyone, and I mean ANYONE who mistreats or abuses a pet has no soul.

Give Foley just FIVE minutes with me and it would be all the
punishment he would ever need.

If a cat came scratching at me, I most likely would kick or beat the cat, too. That said, more details are needed for this story before a judgment can be rendered. So far, I’m on this man’s side.
