Marc-Andre Laporte
of the Blaineville Wire Fox Terrier
cruelty to animals case has been sentenced.


Just heard it on the radio. Waiting for the details to pop up online. I can tell you that he got himself some probation and a bit of community service work. Oooooooooh. Wouldn't want to be too hard on him. He's also been forbidden to own a dog for two years.


Two years.
How about forever?



THE DETAILS

Okay, so here's what he got:

1. Three year probation
2. 200 hours of community service
3. $2000 fine
4. No dogs for two years

The article refers to this as a stiff sentence. Come again? STIFF? Sounds like a wrist slapping to me.
