Man jailed for starving dog to death, while at DISNEY LAND!

Files from www.crimelibrary.com

Can you believe this? You can afford Disney Land but you can't afford a &%*&$&^$ doggy kennel.
Why do these people need to share this earth with me and why are they allowed to reproduce! I can't imagine what wonderful daddy did to explain the fact that her doggy was dead.



N.Y. Man Jailed for Starving Dog



RIVERHEAD, N.Y. (AP) — A man who let his dog starve to death in a basement closet while he took his 7-year-old daughter to Disney World was sentenced Tuesday to a year in jail.

Jason Griffin, 27, received the maximum for aggravated cruelty to animals after pleading guilty earlier this month.




The Long Island man was arrested in January after returning from his Florida vacation. The dog, a labrador-pit bull mix, had been left without food and water for more than a week at Griffin's Northport home.

that is horrible - what did he think the dog was going to feed himself - poor dog and poor daughter too for having such an uncaring dad.
