Police: Man kills puppy misbehaving before Steelers game

[RamboLiberal]

A Bridgeville man told police he killed his girlfriend's puppy yesterday afternoon because the animal would not behave before the Steelers football game broadcast.

William Woodson, 22, is being held on $25,000 bail in the Allegheny County Jail, pending a preliminary hearing on animal cruelty at 1 p.m. next Monday before District Judge Elaine McGraw in Bridgeville.

The puppy, a 13-week-old pit bull named Flip, had been the focal point of recent arguments between Mr. Woodson and his girlfriend, Christine Gielarowski, 21, with whom Mr. Woodson lives on Jane Way.

Ms. Gielarowski told police her boyfriend kicked the dog because the pup would not walk with them. When the near lifeless dog no longer was able to move, Mr. Woodson walked away from it and his girlfriend, she told police.

The witness called police after he found the animal lying limp and dying in the 100 block of Union Street. By the time police arrived, the dog was dead and Mr. Woodson was gone.

[Captain Hilts]

1. This guy has SERIOUS problems. Lock him up and throw away the key. nt

2. Domestic violence rises during football games.

Just one of many sites: http://www.musc.edu/vawprevention/research/football.shtml

[AngryAmish]

4. Did you even bother to read past the headline on that study

That study, like all the others that looked at this belief, states that there is no connection.

"What did the study find?
This study found no significant increase in incidence of domestic violence when professional football was being played. The increases in LASD domestic violence dispatches seen during the '93-'94 football season were not quite large enough to be statistically significant. There were fewer LASD dispatches for domestic violence during the '94-'95 football season compared to off-season."

[Kceres]

5. OK.

[ElboRuum]

6. I can bet where this is going.

Don't mind me... please, continue.

:popcorn:

[Kceres]

9. HA! No really, I'm done. Don't have the energy. n/t

[AngryAmish]

8. Did you read that one?

I just read the note. TO quote

"The first analysis showed that there was no unmediated relationship between football and domestic violence"

[TwilightGardener]

3. Willing to bet the puppy's behavior had little to do with this guy's actions--

more likely he wanted to hurt his girlfriend by hurting the pup. A sicko either way.

[AlphaCentauri]

13. Well, there are interesting things about people who own pit bulls

many of them are just insecure people

[uppityperson]

16. Macho assholes like this guy are a big cause of OMGPITBULL!!! crap.

[winyanstaz]

37. exactly....often an abuser will kill or harm the pets in order to frighten the other person(s)

They often turn on the pets or the children in order to terrorize the woman into obeying.
They are mentally and spiritually sick.

[Dr.Phool]

7. Steeler fans are assholes.

Force him to watch Browns games continually for 10 years.

[SteelPenguin]

10. Oh please

If they forced him to watch Browns games it'd be considered cruel and unusual punishment. No way that could be legal.

[RamboLiberal]

17. Watching Browns games for next 10 years

Torture!

[reflection]

19. Or that KC game from yesterday.

:cry:

[Altoid_Cyclist]

11. What a freaking piece of garbage.

The worthless _ _ _ hole really showed how much of a "man" he is.

I'm at a loss for words to describe how much I hate (? people ?) such as this litle prick.

[AlphaCentauri]

12. What were they expecting from a Pit bull

Those dogs are bipolar, I saw one that almost killed my neighbors Cocker Spaniel

[TwilightGardener]

14. I don't think the breed matters in this case--this was a puppy, probably acting like

a normal puppy. The real story is, the man is a violent psycho.

[AlphaCentauri]

23. Agree

I just don't like pit bulls, when I was little I saw pit bull fights and watch some of them attacking people. Pit bulls are not regular dogs I can say.

[uppityperson]

31. Dogs that have been trained/abused/forced to fight are not regular dogs. I agree.

Have you ever been around a pit bull that was treated humanely, raised in a loving home? Have you ever seen any other dog fights?

[AlphaCentauri]

35. my neighbors was walking his Cocker Spaniel when some other guy was walking across the street

with a pit bull, the pit bull got loose run over the Cocker Spaniel grab it from the neck, the owner of the pit bull didn't know what to do until some guy came out of a home did grab the pit bull from it ears and pull it apart another neighbor came out with a shovel to hit the dog at least once so it would not attack anybody that was trying to save the Cocker Spaniel.

[uppityperson]

36. I've been attacked by a stbernard, chihuahua, terrier mix, golden lab.

My retriever mix has attacked smaller dogs so must be kept home now.

So I guess you answer to my questions is "no".

[joeybee12]

33. Very true, at some point the stubborn kicks in on puppies, kind of like

it does with adolescent humans....they start asserting themselves, and unfortunately it happened with this puppy wehn he was around the world's biggest asshole

[uppityperson]

15. Kicking a 3 month old puppy to death is fine if it's a pit bull? wtf?

Yeah, DAMN those 3 month old pit bull puppies for not wanting to walk with it psycho owner!

[AlphaCentauri]

24. No, but how those people expect a Pitbull to act like poodle n/t

[Bunny]

28. The pit bull was three months old.

The guy kicked it to death because it was almost kickoff time and the little puppy wouldn't finish doing its business outside. This had nothing to do with the puppy being a pit.

[uppityperson]

30. Yeah, a 3 month poodle puppy is FAR different than a 3 month pit bull puppy

:sarcasm: and good grief.

[EndersDame]

25. Don't you know its ok to hate on pitties

I love them most I have met are real big sweeties my little min pin/terrier mix is another story :P

[johnaries]

18. Are you begging to get flamed?

[PVnRT]

29. No, that's just AC's schtick around here

Pitbulls are all evil, without exception, along with most larger dogs. Because how they're trained and socialized has absolutely nothing to do with it. I mean, just look at all the news reports about pitbulls attacking people! The media would NEVER overhype something like that just for ratings and money, would they?

[Beaverhausen]

20. did you forget the sarcasm smiley?

I hope you did, otherwise you are an ________

[AlphaCentauri]

39. of course I did

who in his right mind will approve the killing of a 3 month old pit bull

[flvegan]

21. Ignorant. n/t

[EndersDame]

27. Heh My little min pin/terrier mix pup has expressed her dominance over a big male pittie

Most pit bulls I have met are gentle giants. What can you expect when you treat your dog like shit would be a more accurate analysis of the situation

[superduperfarleft]

38. Yeah, but what was your neighbor's cocker spaniel wearing?

Maybe he/she was asking for it.

Sorry, it's just that I see someone acting like an ignorant dickhead, I have this condition that requires me to act like one right back.

[AlphaCentauri]

40. not bandannas, loose pants, earrings or any other gang related accessories n/t

[superduperfarleft]

41. Kids these days.

Hopefully you won't have any further problems with Teh Blacks and their vicious pit bulls. Peez out.

[Ignis]

22. It would have been more appropriate before an Eagles game.

:puke:

[proud2BlibKansan]

26. And the Steelers lost!

What a freakin idiot.

[Liberal_in_LA]

32. So girlfriend left dying dog also? Story says Witness found dog and called police. She did nothing

[TwilightGardener]

34. Yep--guess so. She didn't even bother to take it inside, or to the vet.

Sounds like both of them are just cruel pieces of trash.
