MIAMI (AP) -- A teenager was arrested early Sunday and accused of committing a string of gruesome cat mutilation deaths that had horrified residents of his Miami area community, authorities said.

.... Some of the dead cats were missing fur and appeared to have been cut with a sharp, straight instrument, police said.

.... Tyler Weinman, 18, was taken into custody early Sunday at a party, police said. Weinman was charged with 19 counts of animal cruelty, 19 counts of improperly disposing of an animal body and four counts of burglary.

What I wouldn’t give to wipe the smirk off the face of this
piece of excrement.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

No. No.

I'm sure his family will say he is such a good boy and could never do any of the things he's accused of.

[Dacula]

If he did do it, then he should suffer the same fate.

I’ve read somewhere that sociopathic behavior like this is caused by sexualizing children at a very early age. Animal mutilations like this are the mark of a future serial killer.

[PGR88]

Isn’t animal mutilation when young a common theme among serial-killers?

Guess who just became someones bitch in jail can’t happen to soon.

Praise God that they finally caught him and hopefully before he started killing humans.

I'm not sure the early sexualization has to involve molestation though. You are right on animal mutilation being a scary tell tale sign of future violent psychotic behavior usually against women. It is very lucky they caught him, most likely he would have changed his focus to women. Escalation is typical, one just has to look at Ted Bundy as an example. He started out as a peeping tom, when he became desensitized he changed to rape then lust murder.

It’s fortunate that this freak is already 18. No juvvie for him, I think.

Baseballbat or crowbar?

some people just need to be put down

[Slings and Arrows]

Don't drop the soap, ************.

[Psycho_Bunny]

Assuming his guilt, how long are they going to be able to keep him locked up....it’s likely that he will start up on people at some point.

It is a damn good thing they caught him, look at his face. He looks so nonthreatening it could have been really bad.

[Monkey Face]

There goes his 15 minutes of fame.
I suspect he’d better be kept in isolation for a while. Maybe 75 years.

“I’m sure his family will say he is such a good boy and could never do any of the things he’s accused of.”

In this case, the family lawyer will do the talking;)

[Monkey Face]

He just looks like an arrogant POS.
He’s not “special.” He’s like the rest of his ilk ~~ a dime a dozen. And they should all be put in jail.

It’s unfortunate he is 18, they probably would have been able to keep him longer if he was still a juvie.
