Tyler, Texas – Two men in Tyler, Texas, are facing charges for allegedly hanging a dog from a tree, causing the dog’s death. According to police, Billy Darnell Perry, 33, and Jay Heath Stansberry, 17, used a leash to hang the white dog in a tree near a property on County Road 314.
On April 14 Perry and Stansberry were arrested and charged with Cruelty to Non-Livestock Animals (torture), which is a third-degree felony. As reported by KENS5 News, an investigator learned that Perry was the person who hung the dog with its leash. He had allegedly attempted to strangle the dog at first by placing the leash over his shoulder, but it did not work.
The affidavit said Stansberry admitted to holding the dog by its leg while Perry draped the leash over a tree limb; he told the investigator that they were getting rid of the dog because their landlord wanted to charge more rent because of the number of dogs at their home.
Both men were jailed and held on $100,000 bond.

This is horrific, but peopIe need to know that miIitary and paramiIitary (Iaw enforcement) k9s are subjected to this torture routineIy, except they are not aIIowed the reIief of death (unIess the dogs’ handIers err in estimating how Iong the dog hangs before death occurs). Imagine being sIow hanged over and over again, unabIe to breathe, untiI you pass out, revived to Iive this nightmare throughout your Iife.
This aIso occurs frequentIy in “dog training” schooIs, as a great many of those are run by current or ex-k9 handIers, and “wannabes.” If you drop your dog off at a training/boarding faciIity, even just to be boarded, it can happen without your knowIedge (and has happened to others).
So, Iet’s stop just throwing band aids on fiIthy IittIe sores that erupt where we can see them, and Iet’s start going after the much, much bigger source of these atrocities, which is deIiberateIy covered up and Iied about.
I have the receipts from aII over this country, for anyone who is interested.
What the heck are you talking about? I doubt it. Do you just hate cops?

Do the exact same thing to them. Then, maybe stuff like this won’t continue to happen.
Our judicial system is poor. Take a look around at all the Evil. We are being over taken.
I say Hang them !!!!!
Hang these bastards. They don’t deserve to live, breathe, eat or walk free. My heart breaks for that poor dog.
Same to them. Let’s slowly hang ’em, but break some bones first.
How I’d love to take a Louisville Slugger to their heads! I bet I could separate their evil effing heads from their evil effing bodies! That would help my rage and save the world from these two evil sons of bitches!
These pigs need to be hung by their dicks. I bet I could sell tickets for that event. woohoo, hang em high !!!
This is in Texas, they won’t do anything to them….prove me wrong……
You might be able to pull that shit in Africa but not in the United States. Hang their asses!!!
Hope to see the garbage hanging from the same tree!
They should get the same fate as that poor dog.
Agree 100%
These sweet,innocent dogs deserve justice!! Open the gates of hell,and throw these conscienceless monsters into it!!!!
Eux-même ont des chiens. ? Et ils en tuent un autre ? Ils sont abrutis
pos u should be hung
NOT A BRAIN CELL BETWEEN THEM. The Only thing you could think of was torture it to death? ALL animals need to be removed from these scumbags. And Never allow them to even be in the vicinity of any animals or children. Disgusting whackkos.

rrr….
surtout leur retirer les autres bêtes présentes dans le logement
Why in hell would you do that to the dog that precious animal had nothing to do with the rent increase they need to get the rest of those dogs out of that house as well. Texas better do something. Make an example out of these POS’s. Throw their asses in jail. Put them on the national registry of people that are not allowed to own animals. This cruelty has beyond comprehension.!!
Evil, narcissist, sadistic scumbags. Ban them for life from owning any more animals, put them on the animal abuse register and give them a very long jail sentence.
R.I.P. Innocent little dog 🥀🕯️💐
