A Riverside Superior Court judge said Wednesday there was enough evidence to try 64-year-old Jack Ziniuk.

There are stooopid people in many places of the globe. Cruelty to animal pet should carry a major punishment, imo.
I agree
What kind of thought process leads a person to decapitate a horse, chainsaw or otherwise? Did the horse throw him or kick him? I mean, come on... I cannot imagine someone who would do such a horrible act on a horse holding back from committing similar violence against a human.
slow pit bull news day?
Go to his woman who fed bears eaten by one thread.
There may be more to the story but based on that, I can't say what he did was so horrible.
Maybe a friend of his thought it would get him a movie contract..
‘Prosecutors say Ziniuk hit his horse in the head with a sledgehammer and decapitated it in the remote mountain community of Anza.’
The FR animal ‘lovers’ will be swarming. Throw away private property rights and privacy for the sake of the animals to bring in Gov’t.
Seconded.
From other reports it seems the owner first claimed the horse was attacked by dogs and he was attempting to end its suffering but didn't have the strength to really swing the hammer so he resorted to the saw. It seems the horse was to be food for his many dogs as the head was found in the dog run.
shame on you for pointing out facts before flaming this guy
So was he feeding the dogs that attacked it?
He doesn’t sound right in the head but not necessarily or limited to what he did to the horse.
It appears there was no dog attack. He had dozens of dogs and made up the story. One of these folk that have lots of animals but can’t take care of them and end up mistreating them. sad.
That makes morbid sense. If there was a dog attack its probably because he wasn’t feeding them.
He’s been found dead on his property. Cause of death hasn’t been released.
