AIMEE JANE LONCZAK and MICHELE NYCZ accused of running a puppy mill - 180 animals rescued

- New Jersey, USA -


The Brick Township Police Department announced the arrest of 49-years-old AIMEE JANE LONCZAK and 58-years-old MICHELE NYCZ (both pictured), for animal cruelty and child endangerment.


In a news release police said that on the evening of Friday, December 2, 2022, Brick Police Humane Law Enforcement Officer Ptl. Scott Smith and Ptl. Brennan Lanni responded to a home on Arrowhead Park Drive about an anonymous complaint that the residents there were running a puppy mill.


Officers met with LONCZAK and NYCZ in the driveway and while on the scene, they “could smell a strong odor coming from the residence and they could hear barking,” stated the release.


Officers were then permitted to enter the residence and immediately noticed a strong odor, unsanitary conditions, and stacks of animal crates on top of each other with dogs and cats inside. Due to the conditions, officers were forced to exit the property and requested that a Hazmat team respond.


At first, officers estimated that approximately 30 animals were inside the residence, but once emergency response teams entered the property, they realized the number of animals was in excess of 100. According to the release, “The number of animals that needed to be rescued called for a large response from agencies throughout central New Jersey.”

It took rescuers in Hazmat equipment approximately ten hours to remove 135 dogs and 45 cats from the home. The VOICELESS VICTIMS were transported to a number of area shelters.


Police said the home was full of animal waste and the animals were living in horrible and inhumane conditions. “At least two animals removed were deceased - both were dogs.”

In addition to the two deceased dogs, approximately eight animals were sent for emergency veterinary care. Veterinarian Steven Cudia V.M.D. also responded to the scene to assess the furbabies as they were being pulled from the residence.


Authorities also found LONCZAK’s 16-year-old child to be living in the home.


According to police, the property was subsequently condemned by the Brick building and code department.

The investigation is ongoing and additional charges may be filed.


NJ.com reports that “Public tax documents revealed that Lonczak is the president of Crazy Rescue Ladies, Inc., a tax-exempt nonprofit which represents itself as an animal rescue group. Nycz was listed as the nonprofit’s secretary on its 2018 tax documents. The group was originally registered in Cooper City, Florida, where Lonczak previously lived, but has listed the Arrowhead Park Drive residence as its headquarters since 2020.”

CHRISTOPHER ROBERT POZZI caught on a doorbell camera torturing a defenseless cat

- New Jersey, USA -


The West Deptford Police Department announced the arrest of 51-years-old CHRISTOPHER ROBERT POZZI (pictured) after a video shows him unmercifully torturing a defenseless cat.


According to a news release, on the late evening of Sunday, September 18, 2022, Ptl. Brunck responded to the area of Forrest Creek Lane in the Forrest Creek Apartment Complex after a woman called to report that her apartment’s doorbell camera system captured a male abusing a cat. Police said Ptl. Brunck viewed the footage and the male was later identified as POZZI.


As stated in the release, “In the video, a male was observed to pick up a cat in an outdoor vestibule area of the complex. The male is seen lifting the cat over his head and then violently throwing the cat onto the concrete floor several times. The male then leaves the area for a brief time, with the injured cat now lying in the vestibule. The male then comes back to the cat, where he is observed on the video to pick up the cat up and throw it out of camera view.”


Police then said that K-9 Officer Joseph LaMalfa, a certified animal cruelty investigator, continued with the investigation and in reviewing the footage, it appeared as if the cat was possibly thrown in an adjacent dumpster.

Police along with the West Deptford Public Works, responded to the area and emptied the dumpster where they discovered the furbaby who was still alive but had extensive injuries.


The VOICELESS VICTIM was turned over to Gloucester County Animal Control to receive immediate veterinary care and is currently being monitored by medical staff.


On September 19, 2022, POZZI was arrested, charged with animal cruelty and booked into the Salem County Correctional Facility.

Online arrest records show POZZI is still in custody with no bond.

Records do not have a court date at this time.


Voice For Us firmly believes that in regard to Animal Cruelty, most, if not all, the charges need to be renamed.

In this case, POZZI should be charged with attempted murder.


I have emailed K-9 Officer Joseph LaMalfa to inquire about the furbaby and he said he would forward my email to Chief John Chambers. If I receive a response, I will update the article accordingly.

KYLE A. BLYTHE sentenced to only 364 days in jail for beating his puppy to death

- New Jersey, USA -


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.
