- California, USA -
The Tehama County Sheriff’s Office announced the arrest of 47-years-old MA LUISA BAUTISTA GARCIA a.k.a. MARIA LUISA BAUTISTAGARCIA (pictured).
In a media release, the sheriff’s office said that on November 2, 2023, Officer Kain, one of its Animal Regulations Officers, rescued a female dog who was found in poor health condition at a home in Los Molinos.
According to the release, the Voiceless Victim was found emaciated weighing only 45 pounds.
The poor soul did not have access to food or water, she “had lacerations to her face and legs, suspected broken rear legs, missing and broken teeth.”
The dog was removed and taken to a veterinarian who reported that she had “a scar in her right eye, which appears to have caused blindness in the eye. She had scarring in both ears, and muscle wasting in the rear limbs. Plus other injuries.”
Deputies contacted the dog’s guardian, BAUTISTAGARCIA, at work and after being questioned, she was placed under arrest and booked into the Tehama County Jail on felony animal cruelty.
The furvictim is now in the care of a veterinary clinic. Hopefully, this sweet girl will fully recover so that she can be moved to the Tehama County Animal Care Center. From there, the next step will be finding a loving home.
As stated in the release, the dog’s name is not known, and it’s unclear whether she even has one.
The Tehama County Sheriff’s Office is suggesting to those who share its Facebook post, to propose a name for this beautiful soul. I propose Earth!
You have no idea how it kills me when I read stories about people who decide to have animals but then, they can’t be bothered to feed them, care for them, or even name them!
