It made me a bit ill. The update to this story is that the dumpster puppy Magnum has since died from his horrific injuries. If there is anyone in the Wichita/Topeka area that hasn't heard about this, there is apparently a petition circulating to try to help change the laws regarding pet abuse. There is also a pretty hefty sum of $$ being offered for the capture/arrest of the monsters responsible.

At the bottom of the article there is some info about the unbelievable state of animal-cruelty laws across the country. QUOTE: To clear-up confusion Fact Finder 12 looked into the laws. Animal cruelty is a misdemeanor in nine states, including Kansas. The rest have enacted some sort of felony law, most in the last 10 years. But the laws vary from state to state. Many states only call for a felony if the cruelty is done to a cat or a dog. Cruelty is considered a misdemeanor for all other animals. And even in felony cases, some states only require six months jail time. END This is why there are so many people trying to get these badly-needed laws into effect in the nine states lagging behind and to get them enforced in the states that have the felony laws.
