Dog died after it was doused in lighter fluid, set on fire
Dallas police said Friday night that an 18-year-old wanted in an attack on a puppy that died after it was doused in lighter fluid and set on fire had turned himself in.
News of the arrest came while several hundred North Texans were gathered for a candlelight vigil in memory of the dog, Justice. The master of ceremonies returned to the stage to announce the arrest, and the crowd erupted in cheers.
Justice was burned alive April 2. Dallas police had issued a warrant for the arrest of 18-year-old Darius Ewing. He surrendered to police Friday night.
The dog died Sunday of complications from the third-degree burns that covered 70 percent of his body.
Witnesses told police Ewing doused the dog in lighter fluid and then threw a lit cigarette on him.
The Dallas County district attorney’s office said it was thrilled to announce the arrest during the vigil for Justice.
“The timing was great,” said David Alex, a special prosecutor in the district attorney's office. “Hopefully, a lot of it had to do with the pressure from the community to do the right thing."
Animal cruelty is a felony. If convicted, Ewing faces two to 10 years in prison.

No Sabbath, Danzig, Black Label Society, Ozzy, Type O or Nine Inch Nails?
I won’t enjoy myself near as much but okay....;]
[but I *really* at least have to have the Danzig]
I gotta go clean the snakes’ houses.
BBL.
[and my latest rescue BP is doing great...eating like a pig, all re-hydrated and just had a *perfect* shed, including those awful stuck eyecaps]
/annoyingly pats self on back
;D
Was the dog white? I’m not kidding here. You’ll notice a certain “preference” toward white dogs, especially pit bulls. I noticed this when living in the “hood.” Makes ‘em that much more easy to mistreat.
I’ve got gas money for you! Where can I contribute??
BTW, bless you for taking in those with baggage. They are the hardest to adopt out, but the most needy. It makes the heart sing when they get good homes!!

That piece of s**t. That low-life piece of s**t.
I hope G-d dishes out a horrible punishment to this evil “human”.
I’ll bring the baseball bat.
I’ll bring the blow torch and salt.
(don’t forget to “spike” that bat)
I also have a pretty solid NHL game-used Sher-Wood goalie stick. You could really clobber someone with the paddle.

My really hyper German Pointer,whose name is Cookie, pretty much inhales anything we feed her. She’ll chew a piece of steak once and swallow it.
Pfffft.
My miserable brats would only wonder why the buns aren’t *toasted*.......;)
It’s been enough stress trying to explain to Odin why they stopped selling his favorite biscuits and now he has to settle for Iams treats
He thinks I’m holding out on him.
Sheesh.
I prefer heavier things.
I like the momentum of the swing.....:)
A goalie stick isn’t light.
You could beat someone to death with a goalie stick.
Is it heavier than an ax handle?
>:}
(I’m really geared more towards biker “equipment”)
It has a pretty good weight to it.
I was thinking you were a guy. Silly me!
