On February 10, 2024, detectives from the Galloway Township Police Department were dispatched to a property in the 100 block of Zurich Avenue to conduct a follow-up investigation regarding an animal complaint.

 

Detectives met with 23-years-old JASON MILLAR (pictured), who identified himself as the animals’ guardian.

 

As detectives were inspecting the living conditions, they found one cat and twenty-five dogs

living in poor conditions with insufficient access to food and water,” said police in a media release. Sadly, detectives also discovered a deceased dog.

 

Animal Control was called in and assisted with removing the furvictims from the property.

 

MILLAR was placed under arrest on cruelty to animals charges and released on a summons pending a future court date. Police said additional charges are still pending, as the investigation is ongoing.

 

I have contacted the Galloway Township Police Department to inquire about all of the Voiceless Victims and with regard to the furbaby who was found deceased, I was told: “….we do not have a name or breed available; however, the dog was sent for a necropsy.  We are currently awaiting the results.”

 

The cat and dogs who were rescued from the property “are doing well and have been placed at local shelters.”  Galloway Township Police Officer Dan Weigle (pictured) adopted one of the dogs, a female Newfoundland named Moo (pictured).

 

No additional information was released.

 

I took the liberty of naming the deceased dog Heart for the tribute image. Should his/her given name be made public, I will rectify it accordingly.

Atlantic County Prosecutor William E. Reynolds announced that following a guilty plea to third-degree animal cruelty, 24-years-old KYLE A. BLYTHE (pictured) was sentenced on August 24, 2022, to 364 days in the Atlantic County Jail and five years of probation following his release.


Atlantic County Superior Court Judge Pamela D’Arcy also ordered BLYTHE to complete community service and to not own or co-domicile with any animals as a condition of his probation.


Reynolds said that the five-year term of probation is the maximum allowed by law.


On December 10, 2020, BLYTHE, of Linwood, was arrested and charged with third-degree animal cruelty as a result of an investigation by the Linwood Police Department.


According to a news release by the Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office, staff at the Absecon Veterinary Hospital contacted the police after they treated BLYTHE’s dog, for severe head trauma.

The furbaby, a 4-month-old female Pitbull puppy named Dolce (Italian for sweet), “presented with numerous signs of blunt force trauma to her head and body”, stated the release.

Sadly, Dolce later died due to the atrocious injuries inflicted on her.


An investigation revealed that BLYTHE “had become angry with Dolce after she chewed up some of his clothing and then beat her, causing severe brain injuries which led to her death.”


According to an article by Breaking AC published on December 18, 2020, the affidavit stated that BLYTHE did not seek medical treatment for Dolce after he beat her, instead, he dropped her at a friend’s home.


Breaking AC identified BLYTHE’s friend as Colby Patroni, who at the time was 19 years old and was working at the Absecon Veterinary Hospital while going to Stockton University full time.

When Patroni lived in Maryland, she was an ASPCA volunteer.


Patroni said she thought she was helping a friend with a sick puppy and said: “At first, I thought she was scared because she was in a strange place without her owner.”

But then Dolce started throwing up blood so she said she rushed the furbaby to her job to get help. According to Patroni, once at the hospital, she learned what was really wrong with the pup.

She said: “The doctor said the dog had major trauma, bleeding in her lungs, behind her eyes, in her brain and suffered two fractured ribs.”

The vet asked Patroni what had happened to Dolce and she was not able to answer so she called BLYTHE who told her two different stories.


Patroni was not criminally charged but when she returned to work the following day, she was fired for involvement with an animal cruelty case.

The Atlantic County Prosecutor’s Office announced that on Friday, July 15, 2022, 39-years-old GARY MOORE (pictured), entered a guilty plea to a 3rd degree animal cruelty charge resulting in the death of a 7-pound Yorkshire Terrier puppy named Mommas.

The murderer is scheduled to be sentenced on August 26, 2022, before the Honorable Dorothy Garrabrant J.S.C.


On January 7, 2020, Atlantic City Police responded to a 911 call from a very emotionally upset woman who came home to find the body of her deceased puppy”, stated the release.

Detective Malik Tolbert entered the woman’s apartment to find her hysterical. The woman told police she came home from work and could not find her Yorkshire Terrier puppy, Mommas. After looking for Mommas, the woman eventually found the furbaby “stuffed between the mattress and box spring of her bed. Mommas was deceased, her body badly beaten.”


Forensic experts determined that Mommas had suffered fatal blunt force trauma.


An investigation led to MOORE being charged with animal cruelty by purposely and cruelly causing the death of Mommas.


According to online records, MOORE is out of custody!
