It doesnt matter he will get out of it somehow and wont see a bit of jail time, he may pay a hefty fine and do some community service but thats it.. It's a shame he should be thrown in jail for the maximum sentence, in my mind anyone who had no compassion for animals(especially dogs) is a SCUMBAG in my book!!!
