KRYSTA DAWN LABARR arrested after two adult dogs and five puppies were found abandoned in a Lawrence home

- New York, USA -


~ Update: April 22, 2025


Police tell me the two adult dogs are the puppies’ mom and dad and that “The puppies were about ten days old and at last check were nursing again with the mother.”


LABARR will be back in court on June 3, 2025.


~ Original story:


Members of the New York State Police arrested 36-year-old KRYSTA DAWN LABARR (pictured – via Facebook).


Police said that on the afternoon of April 15, 2025, Troopers were dispatched to a residence on Brooklyn Road in the town of Lawrence to investigate an animal cruelty complaint.


From the investigation it emerged that “two adult dogs and five puppies had been abandoned inside a residence” and that LABARR was their guardian.


According to the police, the furvictims were malnourished and underweight and the residence was covered in urine and feces.


All of the Voiceless Victims were removed from the residence with the assistance of Animal Control and the Potsdam Humane Society.


Three days later, on April 18, 2025, LABARR was arrested and charged with seven counts of animal cruelty for torturing or injuring animals and failing to provide adequate sustenance. She was transported to SP Massena for processing and then released on an appearance ticket, which requires her to return to Lawrence Town Court in June.

MICHELLE ANN ROBERTS arrested for abandoning her dogs in the home she was evicted from

- Ohio, USA -


The Toledo Police Department arrested 33-year-old MICHELLE ANN ROBERTS (pictured).


Officers responded to a house in the 400 block of 3rd Street in east Toledo from which ROBERTS had been evicted. She left without taking her dogs and when officers arrived at the home, they found two live Pitbulls and a deceased Pitbull puppy in a bedroom upstairs.


Officers found the live Pitbulls in cages with garbage piled on top of them, hiding them from sight. The furvictims had no food or water and it appeared they had been abandoned for several days due to the condition they were in.


Officers reported that the three dogs’ rib bones were visible and it appeared that the puppy had starved to death.


ROBERTS was taken into custody on April 11, 2025, and was charged with one count of cruelty to animals. Online arrest records show she was released from the Lucas County Jail on a $1,500 bond.

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

TIMOTHY D. BROWN aka TIMMIE BROWN arrested for beating a puppy to death

Updated: Mar 8

- New York, USA -


48-year-old TIMOTHY D. BROWN aka TIMMIE BROWN (pictured), is accused of a crime involving the death of an innocent male Pug puppy named Goji.


On February 26, 2025, the Buffalo City Police Department received a call about a deceased puppy found at a home on Shields Avenue. The caller also shared the home with BROWN.


According to the press release by the Erie County District Attorney’s Office, authorities learned that BROWN “intentionally” struck Goji multiple times resulting in his death.


The savage was arrested and charged with one felony count of aggravated cruelty to animals and one count of harassment in the second degree (violation).


On February 27, 2025, BROWN was arraigned before Buffalo City Court Judge Carrie Phillips and then released on his own recognizance as the charges are non-qualifying offenses for bail.

A temporary protection order has been issued for the human victim, along with a “no animal” order that prohibits BROWN from “owning” or caring for any animals while the case is ongoing.


BROWN is due back in court on the morning of Thursday, March 20, 2025, at 9:30.

If convicted of the most serious charge, he could face up to ONLY two years in prison and then he will be free to resume his pathetic and useless existence.


Goji, on the other hand, won’t have a second life!


I asked the Erie County District Attorney’s Office how old Goji was and I was told: “We do not have an exact age for the deceased dog – approximately 5 months to 12 months old, which is why we referred to him as a puppy.” To my question regarding the details of the incident, the answer was: “Also, we cannot disclose any details about the cause of death due to the ongoing investigation as a necropsy has not been completed at this time.”


The Erie County District Attorney's Office pointed out that "As are all persons accused of a crime, the defendant is presumed innocent until proven guilty in a court of law."
