One of the kittens was dead when deputies arrived at the home late Sunday afternoon.
Deputies said Rodney J. Blanchard, 49, asked a visitor at his home to get him a beer out of the freezer.
When the visitor went to the freezer, Blanchard told her that there were kittens inside of it, deputies said. According to deputies, the visitor tried to get them out of the freezer, but Blanchard pushed her out of the way.
The visitor left Blanchard's home and called the sheriff's office.
When deputies approached the freezer, they heard cats "meow," and they found the kittens inside individual sandwich bags on the bottom shelf, authorities said.
A white calico cat was dead. Three others were alive, but they were shaking and covered with fleas.
They were taken to the Emergency Care Center At Tampa Bay Veterinary Specialists in Largo, and they are now in the care of the SPCA.

Someone should stick that POS in a freezer for a while and see how he likes it.

Make sure he’s naked. The kittens didn’t have any clothes on, after all.

Based on the preponderance of crimes being reported in the state of Florida, why would anyone decide to move there?

What a sociopathic creep! My heart breaks for those kittens. Thank goodness they were able to save all but the poor white calico. How about he be covered with fleas and stuck in a freezer?

Why waist good kittens by killing them in a freezer? They make excellent bait for shark fishing or snake food.

Sick. Put him in prison for as long as is legally allowed, and then add another 20 years.

There is no punishment on this earth that is enough for someone who abuses animals and children. And not necessarily in that order.
