Woman Faces Charges Of Animal Cruelty After Threatening Her Pitbull On Facebook

| Published on October 4, 2015

Just recently, we posted a news report about a woman who posted on Facebook asking for someone to shoot her dog. Now another woman has posted a horrible Facebook post threatening her dog by saying that she’s been shooting her dog with a taser and BB gun, and will keep doing so unless somebody takes the dog from her for just $50. People who saw her post were enraged and quickly reported it to the Aurora Police Department in Colorado.

The authorities then began tracking Cherica Winston-the woman responsible for the Facebook post. The police searched for her dog and found the poor thing at the Winston’s Emporia Street Home. But instead of finding a Pit Bull, they saw a small dog, all alone, locked in a crate with no food and water. The place smelled horrible and the poor dog was sitting in the cage soaked with urine.

Watch the video below for the full story.

Because the police found the dog emaciated and living in such horrible conditions, Winston is now facing charges of animal cruelty. However, they didn’t find any evidence that the dog has been tased or shot with a BB gun, so she won’t be facing any charges regarding the threats she posted on Facebook.

The small dog is now safe and being taken cared of at the Aurora Animal Shelter. There are no details how long the dog will stay there, but she will eventually be put up for adoption.
