Suspect's arrest eases fears of girl whose dog was beheaded (MN)
Star Tribune ^ | 3/22/07 | Mary Lynn Smith

Posted on 03/23/2007 4:19:47 AM PDT by ButThreeLeftsDo

Crystal Brown hopes that her nightmares will stop now that St. Paul police have arrested the man they believe decapitated her therapy dog and left its head in a gift box on her doorstep. On Thursday, police recovered evidence that connects the man to the crime, Sgt. Jim Gray said. "He admitted to being there [when the dog was beheaded]," Gray said.

The suspect, 24, was jailed Thursday on suspicion of making terroristic threats. The Star Tribune isn't using his name because he hasn't yet been charged; that may happen as early as today and could include animal cruelty charges as well.

"I think I can sleep a lot better now," Crystal, 17, said Thursday night. "It will make me feel way safer. Now we can walk around the whole block."

I hope he gets the maximum sentence & Bubba the serial-killing dog lover as his cell mate.
