When
Pasado's Safe Haven learned of a woman, named Geri Elkins, had dragged a dog by a chain
for a 1/2 mile behind a van, we wanted justice. But the woman fled. Police
issued an arrest warrant but she still couldn't be found. That's when
Pasado's Safe Haven issued a reward through the media. Within five minutes
following television newscasts announcing the $3000 reward, a tip came in.
We forwarded it to sheriff's deputies. And
an arrest was made.
A woman who had spotted Gerri Elkins at a bar, won the
reward.
Geri Elkins won a year in jail.
It makes no sense to us to simply rescue the animals hurt by perpetrators
of animal cruelty. If we don't use the laws we fought so hard for to win
convictions, these people will simply repeat their acts of cruelty. We
believe Gerri Elkins, and others who we have helped to get prosecuted and
convicted, will think twice before harming an animal again. |
