Man forced to wear sign for animal cruelty...

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The Associated Press
Friday, July 22nd, 2005 05:27 PM (PDT)
HOPWOOD, Pa. (AP) - A western Pennsylvania man said he endured more than he expected when he agreed to an unusual sentence for an animal cruelty conviction.

Ulysses Zimmerman, 22, of Point Marion, pleaded guilty to animal cruelty for allegedly neglecting his dog, denying it veterinary care and strangling the animal.

But Zimmerman didn't pay a fine or spend time in jail. Instead, he stood at a busy intersection in South Union Township Thursday, wearing a sign that read, "I Plead Guilty ... Animal Cruelty is a Crime ... My Dog's Name WAS Salt and Pepper."

Zimmerman was supposed to stand at the intersection for eight hours, but Robin Moore, the Fayette County Humane officer who devised the sentence, allowed Zimmerman to leave early because of all the abuse passing motorists hurled at him.

"Everybody started screaming at me and cussing me. I got there at 9:30 a.m., but Robin said at noon that she'd heard enough and that I could leave," Zimmerman said.

Zimmerman denies he intentionally hurt his pet.

I can't believe I missed this one!!!

I get So angry when I hear or read about Animal Cruelty!
I had to read it twice, he was let off after only 2 1/2 hours? And she's still a Humane Officer? If you ask me, for letting him off, she should be standing with him and then fired!!!! Standing in Jail, I mean! Hurling insults; I'm against violence, I'm surprised he wasn't beat up or got what he gave to his dog!

"Zimmerman denies he intentionally hurt his pet"..what the heck did he expect when he was strangling the poor animal? What a moron...I was going to use a very, very bad word here that I use in very, very angry situations!
