Guest guest Posted February 23, 2008 Report Share Posted February 23, 2008 Please spread this blatant travesty of justice far and wide. What happened to Tammy Grimes for showing compassion to a dying dog could happen to anyone of us if faced with a similar decision of alleviating the suffering of an animal in pain or of a child for that matter. The pathetic excuses of a human being, i.e. the owners, should have been prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and the presiding judge in this case should be removed from the bench. Please keep Tammy's and Doogie's story alive! Note that she was ordered within 10 days to take everything Doogie related off of any site she 'has control or influence over. Well, since nobody has "control or influence" over this list, we are in a position to spread and condemn this miscarriage of justice far and wide and as you can see - it is even making the rounds in South Africa. Ingrid Blank/South Africa - Veterinary Victims vetvictims Saturday, February 23, 2008 11:55 AM Pennsylvania Court Orders Doogie's Story off the Internet YOU MUST READ THIS WHOLE STORY ABOUT DOOGIE, BECAUSE HIS STORY IS ABOUT TO DISAPPEAR FROM THE INTERNET UNDER COURT ORDER. DOOGIE WAS A DOG LEFT TO DIE AT THE END OF A CHAIN. A WOMAN NAMED TAMMY GRIMES RESCUED HIM, AND WAS ARRESTED BY THE "OWNERS." GRIMES WAS SENTENCED YESTERDAY IN COURT FOR THEFT OF PROPERTY. THOSE OF US HELPING ANIMALS IN ANY WAY ARE ALL AT RISK OF BEING VICTIMS OF THE TRAVESTY THAT IS OUR "JUSTICE" SYSTEM. This is no "read and decide for yourself" b.s., either. This is a NO-BRAINER WHAT WAS DONE TO THIS DOG that was "just old." See the pictures and video. BELOW FROM http://www.dogsdeservebetter.com/doogie.html PLEASE TAKE THE TIME TO READ THE SITE, AND SEE IF THERE IS ANY WAY WE CAN KEEP DOOGIE'S STORY ALIVE ON THE INTERNET. LAWYERS, JUDGES, AND OTHERS ARE BECOMING DETERMINED TO CONTROL THE INTERNET AND I CAN TELL YOU FROM FIRSTHAND EXPERIENCE - IT IS BEYOND FRIGHTENING. WRITE, CALL, REPOST THE STORY, DO WHAT YOU CAN. THANK YOU. Julie From the site: (Blair County, Pennsylvania) 2/22/08. Today Grimes was sentenced to 300 hours community service for a 'people organization', because 'people are dogs too'. She was also ordered to pay for the cost of the trial. (Note: this is not court costs, but trial costs, two different things. Trial cost covers the jurors lunches, the sheriff's wages, and the bus driver's salary.) This was justified by the judge because she said that Grimes chose to go to trial over ARD [alternative dispute resolution], therefore she should have to pay for it. Isn't it every person's right to go to trial? Does that right come with a price tag? Interestingly enough, according to Grimes' attorneys, this is not only NOT OFTEN done, but RARELY done. The costs were around $1700. She was also ordered within 10 days to take everything Doogie related off of any site she 'has control or influence over'. We will be appealing most if not all of the sentencing asap. The absolute worst part of it all was the way she was treated by both the DA and the judge. The saddest thing is that they actually seem to BELIEVE the horrible things they said about her. They seem to actually BELIEVE that the taking of Doogie was a publicity stunt by Grimes, so that she could be a 'hero'. That the Arnolds are 'victims' of her lies, and that 'the dog was just old'.
