- Tennessee, USA -
The Memphis Police Department arrested 21-years-old TIERNEY MAZHEE DRAPER (pictured).
According to the police, on October 12, 2023, DRAPER took her 2-year-old black Labrador retriever to the Humane Society, and an employee of Memphis Animal Services noticed that the dog was so malnourished and underweight to the extent that his/her bones were showing.
Police were called in. Sadly, the Voiceless Victim died in the parking lot before getting a chance to enter the shelter to be examined and treated.
The responding officer made contact with DRAPER and she said that she had had the dog for almost a year. DRAPER went on to say that the dog had not been fed since August because she could not afford to buy food.
According to the affidavit obtained by Voice For Us, DRAPER “advised that she knew something was wrong with the dog but did not seek medical help for the dog due to the possibility of a veterinary bill.”
DRAPER was arrested and charged with one felony count of aggravated animal cruelty. Online arrest records show she was released from the Shelby County Jail on October 18, 2023.
Authorities did not disclose additional information about the furvictim. I took the liberty of naming him/her Lotus for the tribute image. Should his/her given name be made public, I will rectify it accordingly.
