A Shih Tzu named Zahara lost its life last September because a man was angry at his girlfriend and their relationship, and the authorities have finally caught up with him. WNBC reports that 27-year-old Sherman Haynes "threw his girlfriend's small dog out his third-floor window, killing the defenseless animal," yelling, "You need your dog?" to his girlfriend, 25-year-old Farah Benoit. The couple were at his East 93rd Street apartment in Brooklyn, where he also threw Benoit's furniture out prior to the dog, who suffered broken legs, collapsed lungs and internal bleeding from the fall and was pronounced dead shortly after. This morning the dog's killer was finally arrested and charged with felony animal cruelty, reckless endangerment and criminal mischief--he had been avoiding the ASPCA for a year.




they ought to throw HIM out a window.
yes, baby-cake, please toss him off the roof, what a sick coward. I hope his ass is ream in jailed.
I will never ever understand people who hurt animals (or any living being for that matter). I wish it were possible to create some type of vaccine to remove whatever part of a person makes this possible. It should be treated as a sickness, a disease. I have trouble sleeping at night because of stories like these.
We are by far the ugliest and most cruel specie I can think of.

Benoit is the girlfriend.
Editing!
Couldn't agree more, Mihow.
To Sherman Haynes: See you in Hell.
Battered children, beaten women and now pets thrown out of windows. The culprit as usual, the woman's boyfriend.
Men are pests!
Yep. It's ALWAYS the boyfriend!
I've always felt, that as with violence against humans, violence against animals should be rewarded by having the perpetrator experience the equivalent.
Throw a dog out the window? Get tossed off a roof.
Beat up your girlfriend? Be beaten by a woman.
Set a cat on fire? Have someone set you on fire.
Drug and rape a woman? Be drugged and raped.
And so on. It will never happen, but it pleases me to think about.
This thread would be a good place to sell that dog yogurt posted yesterday.
"I will never ever understand people who hurt animals (or any living being for that matter). I wish it were possible to create some type of vaccine to remove whatever part of a person makes this possible."
It already exists; it's called 'Lethal Injection'. Very effective.
They should spread Alpo on this guy's balls and have a dozen half starved Shit Zoos loosened on him.
"This just demonstrates the link between domestic violence and animal cruelty," said ASPCA Assistant Director Joseph Pentangelo.
Well, duh! It's obvious that people who are willing to abuse animals would have no compunctions whatsoever about doing the same thing to humans. Lack of empathy extends to all species in those cases. This guy should be locked up because he's a prime candidate for future serial killer.
nah, the guy's black.
