JUSTIN UZONNA ANABARAONYE and PAUL THOMAS BAYLOR III arrested after charred dogs found in burn pile

- Maryland, USA -

 

The Allegany County Sheriff's Office announced the arrest of 18-years-old JUSTIN UZONNA ANABARAONYE and 19-years-old PAUL THOMAS BAYLOR III (pictured).

 

On March 12, 2024, Allegany County Animal Control contacted the sheriff’s office regarding an animal cruelty complaint. Animal Control Officers showed deputies pictures which appeared to be the charred remains of dogs. An investigation was then launched.

 

As part of the investigations, officials obtained and executed a search and seizure warrant at a residence in the 13000 block of Tulip Street in Cumberland.

 

The search of a wooded area on the property led to the discovery of seven (7) “charred remains of various dog breeds in what appeared to be a burn pile”, stated a press release by the sheriff’s office.

Additionally, “the skeletal remains of numerous other dogs were located throughout the property grounds.”

 

A K9 team with the Office of the State Fire Marshal assisted the sheriff’s office, and it was determined that the dogs were burned using an accelerant. The remains of the Voiceless Victims were taken to the Humane Society of the United States to determine the cause of death.

 

ANABARAONYE and BAYLOR were arrested in connection with this case and booked into the Allegany County Detention Center.

 

ANABARAONYE was charged with six counts of animal cruelty and aggravated animal cruelty, while BAYLOR was charged with four counts of animal cruelty.

 

Court records show that the pair are expected back at Allegany District Court on the morning of Tuesday, April 23, 2024, at 9:00.       

 

The sheriff’s office said the investigation is ongoing and further charges are expected.

BILLY EDWARD CADLE III arrested for killing two cats, two dogs, and a man in two different counties

- West Virginia, USA -

 

West Virginia State Police arrested 44-years-old BILLY EDWARD CADLE III (pictured), who is facing charges in Kanawha and Putnam County.

CADLE, of Cross Lanes, is accused of first-degree murder in Kanawha County and burglary and animal cruelty in Putnam County.

 

On Saturday, March 9, 2024, Trooper Fisher responded to a burglary complaint at a residence in Poca where he was able to identify CADLE as the suspect in the investigation.

It also emerged that CADLE had killed two cats who were found inside the residence.

 

CADLE was located and taken into custody.

 

Meanwhile, authorities received a request for a welfare check at a home on Walnut Valley Drive in Cross Lanes where elements were similar to the report regarding the burglary in Poca. Troopers traveled to Kanawha County and inside the residence they discovered two dead dogs and a 53-year-old male who was also dead.

 

According to investigators, the circumstances surrounding both incidents led them to connect CADLE to both scenes.

 

CADLE is currently in the South Central Regional Jail.

In Putnam County, CADLE is charged with burglary during the day and two counts of animal cruelty. For these crimes his bail has been set at $50,000.

On the other hand, no bail has been set for killing the dogs and the man. Therefore, CADLE will remain in jail for now.

 

Police said additional charges are expected and the investigation is ongoing.

CHRISTOPHER CLAIRE, ROBERT CLAIRE, and YVONNE CLAIRE arrested - A dog was found abused and neglected

- New Jersey, USA -

 

Following an animal cruelty investigation conducted by a Teaneck Police Municipal Humane Law Enforcement Officer, three family members are facing charges after a dog was found in their home, showing signs of neglect and abuse.

 

The family members were identified as 68-years-old YVONNE CLAIRE and her two sons, 36-years-old CHRISTOPHER CLAIRE, and 40-years-old ROBERT CLAIRE.

 

I do not have their mugshots because as police explained to me, “In accordance with NJ Attorney General Guidelines, we do not share booking photos of arrestees in press releases.  They were also not photographed, as the offenses were each placed on a Summons (Notice to appear in court).  This was also not an offense that would require to be fingerprinted and photographed according to the State of NJ.”

 

In a press release, Teaneck Police Chief Andrew R. McGurr said that on February 25, 2024, they received a tip regarding a complaint of animal cruelty at a residence on 151 Hamilton Road in Teaneck.

 

An investigation led to the execution of a search warrant.

Inside the basement of the home, in a dark area officers found a metal crate with a dog inside. Police said the dog, a female gray Bull Terrier, had what appeared to be signs of abuse and/or neglect and the crate was “lined with a cardboard box with urine and feces.”

 

Bergen County Animal Control responded to the scene and had to carry the Voiceless Victim to their vehicle as she was in such bad shape that she could “barely stand.”

The furvictim was taken to Teterboro Animal Emergency Room/Shelter to be examined.

 

Police tell me the furvictim is approximately 15 years old and her name is unknown. She was “malnourished and dehydrated” and she’s currently recovering at the Bergen County Animal Shelter. Pictures of the furbaby could not be released as they are “considered evidence in an active case.” 

 

The CLAIRES were charged with animal cruelty and ROBERT CLAIRE was additionally charged with obstructing administration of law as he “refused officers’ commands and resisted their control” when being detained.

They were released pending a court hearing.

 

Chief McGurr urges people who have information about this investigation to contact the Department at 201 - 837- 2600. Thank you!
