Woman Told She Was Next, Police Report Says

SNELLVILLE, Ga. -- A 41-year-old Snellville man has been arrested on animal cruelty charges for allegedly threatening a woman by placing her Rottweiler puppy in a microwave oven.

The puppy was treated at an animal hospital and is recovering, authorities said.

William Terrezz Stephens faces several charges from the June 24 incident in which the 7- to 8-week-old dog was microwaved for 10-12 seconds, then stabbed in the side and dropped to the floor, authorities said Wednesday.

Stephens was charged with two counts of cruelty to animals, one count of burglary and one count of simple assault. He is being held without bond in the Gwinnett County jail in Lawrenceville.

Police reports said Stephens was at the woman's home when he placed the dog in a microwave and turned it on twice. The puppy stayed in the microwave for 10-12 seconds each time and was removed only after it started to cry.

After stabbing the dog, Stephens allegedly told the woman she would be next, according to the police report.

Do they make human-sized microwave ovens?

Well, I know there was a case in the 1950's where somebody forgot to shut off the radar on a B-52 bomber and the man who was servicing it died in angony a few days later. Terrible case, but in this case, I think we found our human-sized microwave oven.

The little Loco story hit me hard, as he was a dachshund/beagle cross, same as the dog I had as a child. I guess the owners realized that : they sent me a Christmas card , and it was nice seeing the dog-grin on Loco's face.

Rambo died very quickly here in his own house, his own territory, in his favorite room (the computer roo), where he'd curl up next to our chair while we waste hours of our lives work online. And both mommy and daddy were there. So given the gentleness of his death and its speed, and his advanced age, I know all three of us were lucky.

This isn't probably the place for this, but a friend from New Orleans told a story today about his brother. They were in the midst of a very special Crawfish boil many friends over and many ladys around during the boiling process. It is very common to add many things to the pot, corn, garlic, sausage, Aligator, rabbit, crab.... Other words empty the refrig...

The brother loading the boiling pot, lifted up the skin rabbit, added the phrase "anyone for a little poodle." and added it to the pot.

That ruined it for many.

Gotta love these "creative torture" threads.

I suppose that depends on one's state of mental health.

I'll provide the tools, you provide the know how...K?

The bastard should have the same thing done to him.

See my post 11 and I'd love to join you in finding a tree for this (expletive deleted)!

This is disgusting. And I don't want to think of how often this occurs. I would personally kill that SOB if they ever did that to my animal. That is horribly sad. The puppy is recovering, but what is going to be the effects of this? The poor puppy with the radiation and other effects.
