Tennessee Football Player Under Investigation For Allegedly Abusing 6-Month-Old Kitten
A University of Tennessee student claims a linebacker on the football team badly injured her 6-month-old kitten ... and now, cops are investigating.
The player at the center of the probe is Aaron Beasley -- a former high school star who just wrapped up his sophomore season at UT.
Beasley played in 8 games in 2020 -- but is touted as a potential future star with a high ceiling.
The problem ... a UT student claims Beasley committed some horrific acts of violence against an innocent kitten -- injuring the animal so badly, he, required a trip to the emergency room.
The cat's owner described the situation in a GoFundMe page set up for her pet on Thursday.
"I came home this morning to find my 6 month old kitten under a dresser hiding and not letting anyone touch him."
"When I picked him up he screamed and couldn’t walk, come to find out my roomates boyfriend had hit and kicked him, locked him in the toilet bowl, and held him upside down by his tail."
"We rushed Nugget to the emergency room and he has brain damage and will now have a hard time walking, he has a bleeding hemorrhage on his kidney caused from internal bleeding from being kicked, clots in his bladder, and he is currently in an oxygen tank."
The Knoxville Police Dept. confirmed to WBIR that it received a report of animal abuse involving another student's cat and has opened an investigation into Beasley.
We reached out to the Univ. of Tennessee for comment but so far no word back.
As for the kitten, Nugget's GoFundMe has already raised more than $4,300 to help with the cat's medical care.
STFU you POS.
An animal was tortured by a human being. FYI, look into how many serial killers start their career by torturing animals.
For you to think this is ok speaks worlds of who you are. I would spit on you if I knew you personally.
“...her staff...”
Nice way of looking at the dynamics between you and your cat.
I had a snow shoe cat a few years ago that assumed a similar attitude. He was accustomed to me going to bed at 9pm and if wasn’t in bed at that time he would sit on the bed and meow until I got in bed. Then he’d wake me at 4am to feed him before going to work. He was a real stickler for me maintaining a schedule.
That monster needs to be kicked daily in the nether region for the rest of his sorry life.
Definitely the brain power and mentality of a future NFL player
STFU you POS.

You are one very sick individual.
I never said animal cruelty was okay.
Unable to discuss the point of my statements, you develop a straw man and you go immediately at me to shut up, and then back up your feigned outrage with up with name calling and making threats of physical attacks against me. Seems you never got out of junior high school.
You are unable to understand what was actually stated.
You go immediately to shutting down a conversation that does not exist.
And you seem to be okay with physically harming a human (me) all the while decrying someone hurting a kitten.
You are the perfect example of what I meant by perspective.

Awww... he looks like our cat Mel Torme.
I don’t know if this athlete is from Tennessee originally, but when we moved here we noticed that so many people neglect and mistreat their pets. It made us sick. Supposedly animal animal issues are under the jurisdiction of TBI, but I don’t know if it’s effective.
As for this guy, I can’t bring myself to read the article, but I hope he burns in Hell. (He will.)
Russian Blues are badass. I miss my old Mousecat.
“What was the roommate doing while the scumbag was torturing the cat?”
It belonged to his girlfriend’s roommate. He surely knew this. So it wasn’t just animal cruelty, it was extreme cruelty to the roommate. Did he know the roommate? Have a grudge against her, or what? And why didn’t her roommate intervene? Really sad all around.
I bet the perp is...yup, he is.
I agree. Why didn’t the roommate intervene
As far as I am concerned, they are both guilty of felony animal abuse.
I am not the only one who sees you for what you are.
And you did say animal cruelty was ok. I am simply calling a spade a spade- someone who thinks so little of any vulnerable creature- animal or human- ceases to be worthy in my eyes.
Be gone.
