Joseph Pacheco drags cow to death

[Unamused Cat]

LAKEVILLE, Mass.—Police in Lakeville are pursuing an animal cruelty charge against a man accused of killing a runaway cow by dragging it behind his truck.

Police say Joseph Pacheco of Freetown put the cow in a harness after it wandered into Lakeville and tugged it along the road, before it fell and was dragged and killed.

Police told The Standard-Times of New Bedford that they found hoof prints along the road and a trail of blood leading to Pacheco's house.

But Pacheco denied anything improper happened. He said the animal walked home with him without incident, and he later slaughtered it, which was his right as the owner.

The animal cruelty charge carries a maximum sentence of five years in prison.

I'll be sending some fan mail.
more info:

A Lakeville school bus driver, Irene Briggs, who said she saw the cow being towed, called animal control, but when contacted by a reporter this week would say nothing beyond confirming that she witnessed the event and, "It was awful."

Lakeville Animal Control Officer David Frates did not return calls seeking comment.

The cow, owned by Pacheco, strayed from his property, which is just over the town line near Mill Street, early that Thursday afternoon. It wandered down Beechwood to Mill Street, which crosses into Lakeville, where it entered a barn on a small horse farm almost a mile from Pacheco's home. An animal control officer was called along with Pacheco, police said.

With the animal officer present, the cow was put in a harness while Pacheco prepared to lead it home. But the animal control officer, a deputy, was called off on another emergency and apparently did not witness what happened next.

MJC is on a roll these days!

I hope the cow released toxic hormones before he slaughtered it and he eats a hearty steak.

Here's hoping he gets the five years, he deserves more imo. There is NO excuse for cruelty like this. Yes we eat beef, etc. but their lives are valuable and they should be treated humanely and when the time comes for slaughter (I would SO be a vegetarian if I had to kill my own meat) (shudder) it should be done as humanely as possible.

How many cows does it take to make a stampede?

One. Any more than that is redundant after I've been trampled.
