The Bibb County Sheriff’s Office arrested 24-years-old MARQUAVIOUS DEUNTA MONTGOMERY and SANAE TOSHIAH RELEFORD (both pictured) for animal cruelty.


The arrest is the result of an attempted traffic stop. A deputy tried to stop a Honda Accord on Glendale Avenue in Macon with a headlight out. MONTGOMERY, who was driving the car, first slowed down, then jumped out of the vehicle, and ran away.


The sheriff’s office said MONTGOMERY was wanted on warrants in Statesboro, Bulloch County and Warner Robins, Houston and Peach counties.


The deputy followed MONTGOMERY to a nearby trailer where he and RELEFORD were found with two malnourished dogs. The deputy reported that the Voiceless Victims were shut in separate rooms, did not have any food or water, and there was a large amount of old feces and urine spread across the floor.


RELEFORD was placed under arrest on two counts of animal cruelty.

MONTOGOMERY was also arrested and charged with two counts of animal cruelty and in addition he was charged with a headlight violation, traffic violations, expired registration, driving with a suspended or revoked license, as well as willful obstruction of law enforcement officers.

The Cobb County Police Department arrested 58-years-old JUNYING LI (pictured), for leaving her dog in a hot car while she was shopping.


According to the police report obtained by Voice For Us, on the afternoon of Sunday, July 2, 2023, police received a call from a concerned citizen after she noticed a small dog inside a vehicle, alone, in the parking lot of Costco on 645 Ernest Barrett Pkwy.


The witness explained that she had arrived at approximately 3:00 p.m. and parked next to the vehicle with the dog inside. The witness then went inside the store to report the incident and was told that they could not do anything but call the police.


Responding officers located the vehicle in question which had the windows slightly open. One of the officers could fit a hand inside and noticed that the vehicle was still running “but hot air was flowing through the vehicle.”


Officers saw “the dog panting on the [floorboard] of the driver`s side and heard him whimpering through the cracked window”, stated the report.

Officers reported they did not see “any water left for the dog to drink.”


One of the officers used a digital thermometer to measure the internal temperature of the car and according to police, the heat levels of the floorboard where the furbaby was laying was 108 degrees.


One of the officers used a window punch and shattered the driver’s side window to get the dog out.


At approximately 4:00 p.m. LI returned to her vehicle. She was placed under arrest, transported to the Cobb County Adult Detention Center, and released into custody of the Cobb County Sheriff`s Office. Online arrest records show that LI is charged with one misdemeanor count of cruelty to animals. Bond was set at $4,620.


Police said LI’s vehicle was impounded and Cobb County Animal Control took custody of the dog.


LI was released after posting bond. Court records show that Judge John Morgan applied the following conditions:


1) Defendant shall not violate any laws, local, state, or federal.

2) Defendant shall drink no alcohol.

3) Defendant shall not possess or ingest marijuana, cannabinoids, or tetrahydrocannabinol (THC).

4) Defendant shall not possess or ingest any drugs unless prescribed lawfully.

5) Defendant shall be required to submit to random alcohol/drug tests at his/her own expense.

6) Defendant shall not possess any firearms.

7) Defendant shall not change present address without written notification to the court seven days prior to a move.


When I emailed the Cobb County Police Department to inquire about the furvictim’s well-being, I learned that the dog is back with LI after she picked him/her up on July 5, 2023.


The police report does not mention the furbaby’s breed, age, or name and police told me they do not have a picture of the dog.

The Haralson County Sheriff’s Office arrested 36-years-old CHRISTOPHER LEWIS MEIXNER after animals on his property were found either dead or malnourished.


According to a press release by the sheriff’s office obtained by Voice For Us, on Sunday, June 18, 2023, deputies were dispatched to a property on 131 Cherokee Circle in Buchanan about animal cruelty. Upon arrival, Deputy Gerlach met with Animal Control Officer Camp and was advised that there had been a complaint at this address of animals not being cared for.


Officers found two Great Pyrenees. One was sadly dead and appeared to have been deceased for a few days. The second one was alive but looked very malnourished. Both furbabies had been kept on a leash unable to move.


Officers then saw “an unknown breed of puppies running around the yard that were so thin, their ribs were showing”, stated the release.


As officers walked around the yard, they saw “multiple pens with various animals, some of the pens had no food or water, one pen had a green colored liquid in a small pool but no food.

They also saw a duck walking around who appeared to have injured feet and an injured wing.


The inspection of the yard sadly also led to the discovery of a deceased chicken and a deceased duck.


Deputy Gerlach reported that there was no grass in the yard. Junk and trash were laying around, and the pens were in terrible condition.


According to the release, at the time MEIXNER was not home but Deputy Gerlach was able to obtain an arrest warrant for him.


On Wednesday, June 21, 2023, Sgt. Lee Bauder, Deputy Jon Henderson, Deputy Jarrett Chandler, and Deputy Nathan Camp returned to the property and placed MEIXNER under arrest. He was transported to the Haralson Count Detention Center on Aggravated Animal Cruelty and Animal Cruelty charges.


As stated in the release, the “other animals in this case have been removed from the property.”


Haralson County Sheriff Stacy Williams said in a statement: “This is a terrible case of animal cruelty. If you own an animal, whether it be livestock or domesticated, it is your responsibility to care for them. We will not put up with animal cruelty in this county.”


Let’s hope the judge who will be presiding over this case feels the same!


Authorities did not disclose the names of the deceased furbabies, so I took the liberty of naming them Moonflower, Starflower, and Sundrop for the tribute image. Should their given names be made public, I will rectify them accordingly.
