Investigation underway after three puppies, one of them dead, were found abandoned in frigid woods

- New Jersey, USA -


The South Jersey Regional Animal Shelter and New Jersey State Police are investigating a despicable act of animal cruelty and are reaching out to the public for assistance.


On Wednesday, November 30, 2023, a Good Samaritan, whom WPVI identified as Suzanne Stretch, was by Gershal Road and Eppinger Avenue feeding her colony cats when she heard some crying.


That crying led Suzanne to a basket with three helpless puppies trapped inside. Sadly, one of them was dead. As the South Jersey Regional Animal Shelter said in their Facebook post, “We can't imagine how someone could intentionally leave them to die.”


The two surviving puppies, now named Wanda and Cosmo, were “emaciated, dehydrated, and cold”, said the shelter. Wanda and Cosmo “have shown us already how resilient and special they are. We are so thankful to be able to provide them the medical and emotional care to heal until they are ready to be adopted”, added the shelter.


In an interview with WPVI, Lauren Campbell, the operations manager for the South Jersey Regional Animal Shelter, said that Wanda and Cosmo are approximately ten weeks old and it’s unknown how long they were in the woods for.


The South Jersey Regional Animal Shelter is in need of wet and dry puppy food as well as monetary donations. If you wish and can afford to help, please click here. Thank you!


I wonder where the babies’ mom is and whether she is safe. If these ignorant, evil, heartless, and soulless individuals do not spay her, what’s going to happen? More abandoned and dead innocent puppies?


We must find those monsters. If you have any information, please come forward and speak up for the Voiceless Victims. You can contact the NJ State Police Bridgeton Barracks at (856) - 451 - 0100. Thank you!


I took the liberty of naming the deceased furbaby Amore (Italian for “Love”) for the tribute image. Should his/her given name be made public, I will rectify it accordingly.

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.
