A judge this morning spared a former Toms River police dispatcher a jail term for a horrific act of neglect that left 68 animals dead in his Barnegat home, portrayed in court as a gruesome, mass tomb.
Superior Court Judge Barbara Ann Villano placed Matthew Teymant, 30, of Barnegat on probation for five years, the maximum probationary term, and ordered him to perform 250 hours of community service for the animal cruelty he pleaded guilty to on Feb. 4, when he also resigned from his job as a police dispatcher. Villano allowed Teymant's wife, Amanda, 23, to enter an 18-month diversionary program that will enable her to avoid a criminal record if she completes it successfully. Amanda Teymant was ordered to perform 100 hours of community service as one of the conditions of the pretrial intervention program.
Assistant Ocean County Prosecutor Michael Abatemarco had asked for a county jail term of 364 days for Matthew Teymant as a condition of his probation.
But Villano said she didn't agree with Abatemarco that incarceration is called for in the case. The judge, in explaining her decision, cited letters she received from Teymant's neighbors and friends, his lack of any prior criminal history, and the absence of any malfeasance in parenting his two young sons, one 2 years old and the other 10 months.
The dead animals -- dogs, cats, turtles, hamsters, guinea pigs and one that may have been a ferret but was so decomposed, it was hard to tell -- were discovered April 7 when a contractor went to change the locks on the Teymants' Potomoc Court home in Barnegat after the couple had fallen behind on mortgage payments and moved out.
Matthew Teymant's attorney, Bradley Billhimer, said his client had "made an error in judgment and he was simply overwhelmed.''
A volunteer with the Toms River First Aid Squad since before he was old enough to drive, Matthew Teymant had taken in stray and sick animals, but "circumstances went beyound his control,'' Billhimer said.
Sgt. Thomas Yanisko of the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals said the dead animals included 28 kittens that were wrapped either in towels or plastic bags and placed in a freezer, as well as three large dogs, one a German shepherd that may have been a former police dog. Teymant's father is a Toms River police canine officer who trained dogs for law-enforcement agencies throughout the state. "The sights, the smells, the increased feeling of empathy for the poor, pathetic, helpless animals, that is something we will never forget,'' Yanisko said. He described the house as a "fly-infested, maggot-infested tomb.''
Villano acknowledged the horrific scenario before she imposed her sentence.
"I understand the scene was grim beyond belief, gruesome,'' she said. "In an effort to be everyone's answer and everyone's responder and healer, you became everyone's torturer,'' Villano told Matthew Teymant in imposing the sentence.

A former police dispatcher and his wife who abandoned their Barnegat house, leaving 68 dead or dying pets in it, avoided jail Monday on animal cruelty charges. Matthew Teymant was sentenced to five years' probation and 250 hours of community service. His wife, Amanda, was admitted into a pre-trial intervention program that will drop charges against her in 18 months. She must perform 100 hours community service.
Authorities said the Teymants' house had rows of cages containing mummified remains of animals that had to be removed with wire cutters, feces everywhere, and inside a freezer, the bodies of 28 kittens wrapped in towels and plastic bags.
Teymant's lawyer says he became overwhelmed caring for the animals once his two young children were born.
Fucker escaped jailtime! This is bullshit!!! Here is the douchebag:

Dogs, turtles, gerbils, hamsters "and a multitude of cats" had already been devoured by maggots, flies and larvae when police and animal rescue workers entered the small blue house Monday evening at 21 Potomac Court, Tom Yanisko said.
"They were stuck in these cages, and they couldn't even have a chance to run to a dripping sink or anything like that," said Yanisko, a veteran officer with the Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. "You can just visualize the way these animals ultimately died," said Yanisko. "The horror they must have gone through just wasting away and not being able to get anything to drink or eat. They just dropped in the house, wherever they happened to be, when they didn't have any more energy to get up and move. That's the way that we found them."
