Cat torturers featured at Toronto Film Festival

 

Casuistry: The Art of Killing a Cat, will premiere at the Toronto

Film Festival on September 14. The film features the three cat

torturers, Jesse Power, Anthony Wennekers, and Matt Kaczorowski, who

brutally tortured and killed a cat on video in 2001. According to a

review in the Toronto Sun, the film features the killers' " excuses "

for what they did (they were disorganized, the razor was dull, they

were on drugs) and apologists defending what they did (as well as a

few critics). The director, Zev Asher, said, " I cannot condone or

condemn what they did. "

 

Freedom for Animals will be organizing a demonstration at the

Festival to raise awareness of what happened and to counteract the

pathetic excuses of the killers. There is no excuse for what

happened to Kensington.

This is the letter

 

To the organizers of the Toronto International Film Festival:

 

I was horrified to learn that Linda Feesey's film, " Casuistry: The

Art of Killing a Cat " , is scheduled as part of the Toronto Film

Festival.

As you likely know, the film discusses the notorious case of 2001 in

which Jesse Power, Anthony Wennekers, and Matt Kaczorowski videotaped

themselves torturing a cat to death.

 

We would welcome efforts to raise awareness about this act of

cruelty.

However, you may not be aware that the producer, Linda Feesey, is an

associate of the cat torturers. (For example, her 2002 film, Mr.

Kafka's Holiday, starred Jesse Power's friend Jubal Brown, who was

outspoken

in his support of Power during the cat video case.) Casuistry is

another

opportunity for Power and his friends to defend their horrendous

actions.

According to the review in the Toronto Sun, the film features many

apologists for the cat torturers. The killers show no remorse for

their crime.

By including this film in the Festival, you are not only condoning,

but encouraging Jesse Power and his ilk in their actions of extreme,

premeditated, and illegal cruelty to animals. We urge you to remove

this film from your program. Please let me know as soon as possible

what

action you will take.

Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely,
