ELKHART COUNTY, Ind. — The push for justice in the case of two stray cats, killed inside a trash compactor, at the hands of three former Jayco employees in Elkhart County.
A new petition is being circulated by a group called ‘Animal Victory’, reaching more than 19,000 signatures, calling for the criminal case to be reopened and charges filed against the men responsible, after the County Prosecutor Vicki Becker announced her office would not prosecute the men.
Becker arguing the feral cats damaged business property and didn’t endure prolonged suffering.
Organizers of the petition sending a letter to Becker reading in part quote, “Your failure to address this case in a fair and legal manner is a moral failing, not just a legal one. There is more than enough evidence that shows you are wrong.”
ABC57 reached out to Becker about the petition, to which she responded with, “Although I have not personally seen the petition, I am aware of its existence. Even with such a petition, I am not willing to act contrary to the law simply because it may be the popular thing to do.”
ABC57 will continue to keep you updated on any new developments.
