We just had an awful thing happen in our community. It is 6 boys: two 17 year old boys and four 11 and 12 year olds. They poured gas on a dog and burned it alive. The tent they were in caught on fire as well. The cops had to shoot the dog as it was still alive, but almost dead and in tremendous pain. The courts are planning on sending the older boys to boot camp. The younger ones, I think were just there to look cool, Peer pressure and all. The younger boys are most likely scarred for life because of what the older boys made them witness. Apparently the older boys had it planned and were the ones to collect all the gas and lighters and they even set up the tent to burn the dog in. There's no word yet as to what they'll do with the younger boys.
I think they should get mental help for what they've seen.
But the older ones need to go to some kind of behavoirial (sp)? readjustment and hopefully jail.
Any comments will help, as I plan on writing to the newspaper and the judges.

17 years old and only boot camp?
It should be jail. Depends on the state. Some states (like mine Utah) refuse to treat animal torturers as felons.
Go with the Cali example. Those boys will be in jail later after doing the same to humans. Might as well catch them now. I think 5-10 years hard time is reasonable.
That just pisses me off. Writing the judge won't really help. They don't listen to public opinion. But if your state doesn't have strict animal cruelty laws, you need to raise a big stink with your state legislature.

They should get Jail time they are 17 the judge can decide to treat them as adults.... that is just sick....they need serious repercussion. And I think all involved should be penalized someone should of took the situation in their own hands and put a stop to it.

Animal abuse is the same pathology as child abuse.
And should be treated the same as far as punishment.
There is no 'cure' or treatment. Just like there is no 'cure' for rape.
Send the kid to Iraq.
