A Campobello teen is accused of raping one neighbor's dog and another neighbor's two little girls. Now the dog has died and charges against the teen have been upgraded.

After receiving word that the dog died possibly because of the rape. Fox Carolina called the Solicitor's office to see if now new charges would be filed against the teen. An hour later Solicitor Trey Gowdy called to say that the charges will be upgraded to the "most serious animal cruelty charges they have on the books."

The dog's owner Sylvia Jones says, "At first when it happened, I couldn't eat or sleep every morning I'm waking up thinking Princess is there but she's not.

Princess's little dog house is empty now. Sylvia Jones says she died of internal bleeding this past Sunday because of the rape. "The vet told me she had a little blood in her urine and that she was bleeding inside."

Sylvia says she and her husband would not have believed Cory Williamson raped Princess exactly two weeks to the day she died had they not seen it with their own eyes.

"When I got here we were laying on the deck looking at him and he had his pants down and he was doing sexual activity with the dog like a man would do to a woman."

The Jones family says Princess wouldn't eat or play anymore after the attack. "She (Princess) couldn't even sit down, her bottom was swollen sore."

Neighbors worry that if Williamson is accused of raping a dog and molesting two girls in the same neighborhood, who knows what might happen next.

I lack the required words for this.

This is disgusting. And the guy who did this deserves to have his nuts severed by a cheese-wire.

However, I find it VERY disturbing that the rapes this prick perpetrated on two girls (one as young as three) are only an incidental in the article.

Is the rape of children so passé these days that dog-shagging should be more newsworthy?

I don't condone AT ALL what happened to the animal. But the death of the dog, is NOTHING compared to the psychological damage this prick forced on that 3 year old.

[Happygal]

BTW, I'm not sure about using the word 'rape' when it's a form of abuse against an animal.

The dog was certainly treated cruelly in this instance.

But when so many women have to go through the psychological torture of proving rape, in a witness box, it's astonishing really that rape is so easily accepted for a dog.

What kind of evil person would do such a damnable thing? I can't even imagine how horrible this is. Sickening.

In today's "justice" system he'll probably get more time for raping the dog than the kids.

You two are relatively new here. I remember when incorrect spelling, or sentence structure wasn't adequate, you faced the wrath of Khan! I've been jack slapped by the Mods a couple of times (had it coming), but never in my wildest dreams came from headroom like Steph's. I would expect to be banned for such postings. I've seen a lot of great freepers no longer here for a lot less.

Straight from the Home page...

He should have still been in jail for the girls. OMG they act like the damned dog is the end of the world.

[Jaded]

For once I wish the dog would have mauled the SOB to death.

I'm with you on that. Would have saved alot of trouble and taxpayer dollars.

Please re-read article..

In your opinion, what should his punishment be if he is proven guilty?

Ummm... Stephanieetc., your silence is LOUD.....

"Something's wrong with this visualization. Why were they laying on the deck?"

Between this comment and the cat photo, I have laughed so hard that I'm satisfied in calling it a day. FReepers are the best!

I thought she looked like a sweet dog from the pics. Big dumb lug, prolly slobbery and half knocking you down to greet. Fry the defective POS, anyone who rapes an animal is just plain sick.

[Happygal]

I presume you are talking about the rape of the two girls.

[Happygal]

Hello!

This prick RAPED a three year old.

He ABUSED the dog.

BTW, I'm not sure about using the word 'rape' when it's a form of abuse against an animal.

It may not be, but using the word paints the commensurate picture.

[Happygal]

Does the commensurrate painting require the details of rape against children to be regulated to the later paragraphs?

Sloppy, sloppy reportage, IMO.

[afnamvet]

yes
