A pair of college students have been arrested in connection with the brutal slaying of a young horse. Blinn student Kenneth Peterson, 21, is charged with cruelty to animals and criminal mischief. Those same charges have been filed against Texas A&M student Walter Williams Jr., 20.
According to police, Peterson and Williams went for a walk in the woods near Wellborn Rd. armed with a polo mallet and golf club. A witness told police the two men climbed a couple of fences before chasing the horse out of view. He said Williams later returned and announced that Peterson had killed a horse.
The witness said he and Williams found the collapsed horse bleeding profusely from the neck. Williams then allegedly stabbed the horse in the chest with a broken golf club to,"...put him out of his misery."
Authorities said the break in the case came when the apartment manager called police to report a large amount of blood in the apartment where the men were staying. Peterson and Williams are being held without bond.

My pleasure.
Consider it done.
Killing animals will lose its luster with these folks; ask any profiler. They'll 'graduate' at some point in time.
That's my fear - these two are serial killers in the making. They don't need to be loose in the world.
They need to be off the streets for good. Torturing animals is the last step before doing it to humans. They're next victim will be a person.
They're=Their Dang, and I know better, too. You can only think so clearly when you're that PO'd.
