A neighbor of Usagre and other Llerena face a request for fifteen months in jail after being accused of killing five greyhounds who died after receiving multiple blows along the railway that runs between Merida and Los Rosales (Sevilla).
The events began to be investigated after the agents of the Nature Protection of the Guardia Civil (SEPRONA) working in Fuente de Cantos discovered in an advanced state of decomposition five animals of this breed. The discovery was made at kilometer 82 of the railway line linking Extremadura and Andalusia, in the municipality of Usagre.
In the following days it was carried out an investigation to try to clarify the facts and was a key finding of a microchip in one of the dead dogs.
That identification device corresponded to that of a greyhound owned by APM, a 43 year old who is a resident of Usagre.
The finding of a microchip in one of the greyhounds was key to identify the owners
That track allowed pull the thread and ultimately led to the second accused by these facts, the neighbor JPB Llerena, who is 24 years old. The prosecution believes that three of the dogs were owned by APM, while the other two belong to JPB In the indictment by the prosecutor explained that the two accused were put in hand to hit unconsciously to death five greyhounds that belonged to him because they were already “useless in the work of hunting.”

This sentence is better than none at all however their crime was despicable…the punishment is inadequate.

Finally!!! Could there be light at the end of the tunnel??? Is there any way we can send thanks to the Guardia Civil and the judge in this matter? Let them know that people all over the world are aware of what’s going on…
Danielle – you could write to Nuria Blanco of Amigos de los Galgos and FEPAEX Extremadura, she probably knows a lot about the case.
I think that this sentence shows that maybe the authorities are taking animal abuse seriously and I’m glad about that. The sick piece of scum who tortured and burned a dog to death in Sheffield got away with it, makes me sick. The sooner there is proper sentencing for the abuse and torture of animals the better. So sorry for the beautiful galgos who were so brutally killed.
