The Media Just Doesn't Care About Animal Abuse.
This story is just one of many, many abuse cases in the state of WV that the media, TV and newspapers, even though the Pt. Pleasant newspaper carried a few lines, just doesn't think is important. I feel it is my job to let the public know what is happening right in their own back yards. It also ties in with my post on people that abuse animals go on to abuse humans.
A man from Hurricane is a charged with the beating death of 8 puppies. 39-year old Joey Keith Jeffery is charged with 8 counts of animal cruelty in Mason County. Jeffery is also charged with one count of domestic violence. According to a Point Pleasant newspaper, deputies responded to a domestic violence call at a house in Leon on Sunday. The report says at the house deputies found 8 puppies beaten to death with a blunt object then thrown into a trash can. Jeffery is currently in the Western Regional Jail. His bond was set at $21,000. The report says Jeffery has an extensive criminal record with 44 arrests.
