I lived across the street from a marina. Our black lab, Fred, would jump the fence to go swimming at the marina. He then befriended a retired couple on a sailboat and they would come get him to take him sailing. That dog found us some life long friends. Everyone at the marina loved Fred and would come get him. I never had trouble finding a dog sitter when we went on vacation.
Thanks for your sweet story. It eases the emotional pain and anger I'm feeling for what happened to that sweet lab in that horrible heartbreaking story.

I dont believe she was a DV victim. I think anyone who tries to have their spouse killed should automatically have their parental rights terminated, and they should lose everything in the divorce. She doesnt "deserve" anything!
The dog being murdered ripped my heart out of my chest. It's so appalling what this monster did to this poor dog. He needs to be sentenced to a longer time in jail... keep him there forever! He's a danger to society. RIP, sweet Bear.
I agree, that was just heartbreaking to hear about. And that sentence?! Bullshit, I cannot for the life of me wrap my mind around how that’s the maximum sentence for such a crime.
Look up Justice For Dixie. That needs to be shared to spread awareness. A Lorain Ohio police officer named Elliott Palmer shot a family's yellow Lab named Dixie. He shot an obviously friendly dog. Let me emphasize!!! He shot multiple times as this sweet dog was already maimed and fleeing. Then he held the family hostage! Several neighbors witnessed. All seem to be in full support of Dixie's family. The poor dog died at the scene.. The family was never allowed to help the dog. They have to live with this trauma. They were outraged! I am outraged! There is a petition at move on org
He still has to try and live in that community after he's released though. Doubt he'll be getting too many beers bought for him in celebration of his return.
how come only 60 days behind bars for the psycho ? who knows if he killed people before in some states if you run over a dog, the punishment is similar if you do it with a person
Exactly!!! Are they not concerned the nature in how he killed that poor dog. As far Dismembering that precious dog 😢. Who would do that. A disturbed monster .
60 DAYS?!? 60?? 😠 For a thinking, feeling innocent creature with a proven pain response? 60 days? (memo to self: do not EVER move to that area) I'm truly sickened by what poor Bear and his owners endured. A 6 month sentence, with 6 months community service, a 5k fine, and 3 years probation sounds like a plausible start! Couldn't the court get him on felony theft, mental torture, withholding goods and destruction of another person's 'property'?? Evil monster.
What did the poor dog do to this man that he has to kill the dog?when my dog died just last week,I cried..I just can’t imagine what the owner felt when they discovered that their beloved dog(bear) was killed by their neighbor..and 60 days is not enough punishment for this man..😡..
I'm sorry about your dog. And I agree, I cannot imagine how gutwrenching it would be for anyone to deliberately kill one of my animals. I might end up in legal troubles of my own. Yes, we need a petition!
if u kill a cop do you get a bigger sentence then you would killing someone who aint a cop? what about a cop dog? compared to a non cop dog? if somebody gutted my pet goldfish for whatever sick reason say maybe an X of mine for example, is she liable to face charges? or dismembered my pet sheep? chicken? spider?
We need harsher sentences for those that harm animals! Especially when it is in such a heinous and grotesque manner. Plus, as you mentioned, a lot of serial killers get their start by harming animals in ways that they will later harm other people.
That's absolutely disgusting that he only got 60 days, a dog is a loved and adored family member and deserves more justice, what happened to that poor dog deserved a life sentence not only because of what he did to the dog but also that he is a danger if released back into the community, so many serial killers start by torturing animals, my thoughts are with the family, so sorry for your loss xx
The justice system in the US is warped. Remove all those old geezers and start putting some real laws. The way I see it. They only gave him 60 days to encourage to go on a murder spree later on so that the police have stuff to do

If you're charged and arrested for attempted murder on your spouse, you should not be allowed to be let out on bail. Too many times, they let the person out on bail, and they go and actually kill the spouse. It's absolutely ridiculous. Also, fuck that guy that killed that poor innocent dog.

I can't even imagine the pain that the owners of that beautiful lab went through and most likely still are. It's sad enough as it is for them to die by old age or accidentally.. but this ..😭I actually owned a black lab and you could not find a more loving, loyal, and gentle soul❤.
My dog is half black lab and half German shepherd, and she is the most loving, patient, protective, loyal, and the smartest dog I could ever hope to have. She got the best of both breeds ♡
I have loved having Rachel as your co-host today, Ana! She is simply delightful, and very knowledgeable. I hope you have her join you again soon and often!
It is horrifying how backwards the USA is in relation to the law treating dogs as possessions instead of as the furry family members they are. If the murderous idiot had done that over here (or in the Bahamas) we would not have gone so easy on him. Respect to the Judge in this case too for expressing his sentiments.
I can tell you, as a victim of domestic violence, in several relationships (until I realized that I was attracting the domestic abusers, and stopped allowing them in my life), an abuse victim will NOT have an affair for fear of being attacked by their abuser, and killed. So, she and her divorce attorney are throwing that into the mix to influence the judge's decision in her favor, but it is a false allegation. Her attorney is an ambulance chaser type, IMHO. Not above using lies to win the divorce for her with everything she's asking for. Now that she's being tried for conspiracy to commit murder, that's going to go in the husband's favor, not hers. She screwed her case.
Agreed. Have a lab myself. This broke my heart. Labs do not have a mean bone in their body. They befriend everyone and are so incredibly trusting. What a vile human to do this to such a gentle animal.
He lucked out in two ways. 1. The cops foiled her plan to kill her husband. 2. He gets major revenge in that she is going to prison for life for not only trying to kill him, but for cheating on him too. So she has to rot in prison while he gets to move on with his life, marry a new woman, who will be her kids new mother. That is sweet, sweet revenge.
Well, still absolutely awful for her children- even if they get a nice stepmother, (and I hope they do) the fact is that their mother is their mother and they have lost her, in a most heinous and senseless way. And I say that as a stepmother myself. I hope those kids get lots of support and therapy and that their father focuses on that as opposed to any feelings of “sweet revenge” he may have.
Due to the fact that serial killers start murdering by torturing & murdering animals, the sentence for murdering animals should be similar to a human murder. The reason for this high sentence is cause an animal and a human feel the same intensity of pain & agony when tortured or murdered
@sakibchoudhury2225 So you're one of those people. Yes, a dog is just as sentient as a person. Empathy is a human trait. If we don't have it, we can't call ourselves a good human. And if we can't be human, why the hell are we still alive Also, it's not just about the poor dog. It's about how serial killers start killing people by killing animals first. That's why if they don't get them off the streets for violently cutting up one dog today, they won't care & just cut up people tomorrow, cause they'll presume that no one cared they were violent.
Poor Bear and his family 😞 The neighbour is crazy! If he'd done it by accident thinking it was a dangerous predator then he wouldn't have chopped him up.
He only got 60 days ???? This is the most disturbing sentence I’ve ever heard!!! If he did that to my family member… I would apply the same act on him before the police is even able to arrest him!!!
That is because you are misguided. It is wrong to kill people; a grievous, mortal sin. Killing animals is not on the same level as killing humans. Witness the slaughter of the American buffalo during the 1st part of America’s history or the slaughter of wild game in Africa so that Americans and Europeans could display the carcasses on their walls. No one protested that such slaughter was wrong or barbaric. Dogs are not part of anyone’s family. They are a different species. Dogs are pets like goldfish or cats or Guinea pigs.
@@wuncieadams1352yes, I will agree with you on a part- it’s not the same killing human and animal- killing an innocent animal is much much worse and more sinister!
He will go from killing and dismembering animals then to killing humans like a serial killer. So he needed a longer sentence. That’s why I make sure my dog never ever gets out and about by himself, when a dog goes on someone else’s property they don’t love the animal like you do and can do something like this. Some people r horrible
R.i.p Bear im absolutely disgusted who does this..our pets are OUR BABIES! Heart breaking...the neighbour should have got alot longer he cut the poor dogs head off ffs.. thinking of the family right now 😢
Thank you Ana and Rachel for another informative and insightful podcast episode. I am familiar with the case where the wife was conspiring with her lover and his friend in the Bahamas to have her husband killed. I will never comprehend why people don’t just get divorced instead of turning to more sinister resolutions. The other case is beyond heartbreaking and gut-wrenching. Our fur babies are beloved family members; the monster that committed such heinous and abhorrent acts on the neighbor’s dog is so reprehensible. I really think the laws for harming animals need to be harsher because they are often a precursor to even more vile acts. Besides, in addition to children and the elderly, animals are innocent and cannot protect themselves… they rely on us for care and protection. Those that harm animals need to face harsher sentences and consequences imo.
We have a farmer, who lives a few miles from us, in Ohio. We used to buy feed for our goats and chickens, and milk replacer for a calf we had, who lost his mother. Since we live in the country, many dogs are just dropped off, when the owner doesn't want to, or can't keep it. We were talking about a recent dog, that showed up, the day my husband was going out of town, so we put it in a fenced area, with our chocolate lab, and planned to call animal control the next day. During the night it got out and maimed one goat so badly, I couldn't wait until morning to call the vet to put it down. It also bit three of our other goats. Anyway, when I told the farmer what happened, he told us about his practice, when a stray came to his house. He said he practices the three SSS's. "Shoot, Shovel, and Shut up!". I was appalled! Several years later,that farmer was arrested for molesting several young boys who worked on his farm! I agree that, when someone kills animals, they likely will go to other crimes, involving humans!
Love this episode! I hope Rachel will come back. She is excellent. As for the cas with Bear, you ask who does a crime like this. I can tell you that it would be someone like my ex. He’s very intelligent. He worked for NASA at 19 and later on the NSA sought him out for his “moral flexibility”. He was charming and had me fooled for awhile. Oh, and he loved guns. We moved out to the country and the neighbors had several dogs that would get out and chase cars in the street just past our driveway. One day I came home from work to find a note that he had shot the neighbor’s dog because it came after him in the shop. He threw a tarp over it. I went out and saw the tarp but didn’t look under it until the sheriff deputies showed up (he was conveniently in the next county over at band practice). Of course they wanted to see the dog. It was essentially hog tied with rope and dragged over there. Beautiful Dalmatian. After they left, the neighbors came over and yelled at ME! I told them to take it up with my husband. I only knew what he told me. There’s a reason I’m not married to him anymore. Do I suspect he has the makings of a serial killer? Absolutely! I hope I never see or hear from him or about him ever again.
✨Aawww Ana, thank you for covering Bear's case🩷 I am so absolutely heartbroken, but I feel positive chances in Michigan laws (and hopefully nationwide) are coming... My praises to Michigan law enforcement and the judge, for recognizing the serious nature of this crime, and for addressing the fact that the punishment does not fit the crime. If we do create a new law to protect our animals right's, I hope we will name it "Bear's Law" in his honor⚖️🐕 And I just wanted to add that Rachel was a phenomenal guest!💗 She brought sooo much insightful information to the table, and I found her fascinating☺️ Hugs to you and a smooch to your new pooch, Maegan🌈
Sole custody shouldn’t even be an option anymore, unless there is proven abuse, bc obviously the majority of parents can’t put their children ahead of their emotions & need to hurt each other. RIP Sweet Bear ❤
It shouldn’t. In Canada, at least in Quebec, it’s very rare that a judge will award sole custody. They usually award 50-50 custody because they know that kids need both parents, unless one parent isn’t fit or because they live too far appart and it would be a problem for school or if a parent is away from the home for work too much.
Nah this is greed murder for greed only and she knew because of her actions she would loose everything ! She wanted everything thought murder was way to get it all ! Stupidity on her part !
The people who torture and kill animals are the same people that abuse their children, their spouses, and often escalates to murder. There has been a cat serial killer on the loose in Jacksonville Florida, and at horrifies me. Someone witnessed someone punching into a bag and these were peoples beloved pets. We have to do much better, and these crimes need to be Felonise.
@@BelleLeilaNoir yes. There was an injured kitten someone witness being thrown on a bridge. The witness brought her to the shelter where thankfully she was saved and has been adopted. It was heartbreaking to see what that poor baby went through.
Michigan is horrible about animal cruelty. Like 3 years ago my friends psycho neighbor who had cops called on him all the time broke onto my friends front porch and tortured her cat and it's 4 kittens to death and mutilated their bodies like literally ripped limbs off and horrific things. Cops came and said they can't do anything about it. Wtf! A man at a trailer park was setting cats on fire in front of screaming and crying children. He got a fine. A fucking fine for causing lifelong trauma to children and murdering animals. An ex sheriff (Jacob Wilkinson) murdered his own k9 dog after it "nipped at him" he duct taped it's legs together and duct taped it's mouth shut and shot it 3 times and hid the body. We all know animal torture more than not turns into human torture eventually so wtf are we doing giving these sickos slaps on the wrist so next time their victim can be a person?! Thank you so much for talking about this I love animals and it makes me so sick to know humans do these things.
Ana I’ve missed you! Stupid RUclips hasn’t been showing me when new videos were posted so I’ve missed the last several weeks 😮 Don’t worry I’ll catch up, but RUclips algorithm needs to do better so I don’t miss your amazing work done each week.
She will NEVER have a healthy relationship with her 3 boys.......they will always resent her for plotting to murder their father, they will never get over that.
If this woman is convicted, she’s going to have a tough time in prison. Apparently Foxhill is one of the worst around with few to no decent facilities. A far cry from her privileged life. She should have cut her losses and reached a divorce settlement. Hope her husband sues her, gets custody of the kids and leaves her nothing.
Why make it a felony with only 60 days. It’s hard to take that punishment seriously. They could at least throw some anger management to make it look like they’re concerned. I sincerely hope his next victim isn’t a-two-legged variety
What is he gonna kill next, sick and cruel ash-whole! Standards have been going downhill over and over. Labs are sweet and loving. Dogs have minds of their own nd given the opportunity to run they take it. He didn't hurt anyone. Sad.
This “ man “ that killed a family member- BECAUSE A DOG IS A FAMILY MEMBER , should be looked at a deeper level!! I’m almost sure he has done this before human / animal. This horrible!!!!!!!!
I wonder if the guy that killed the dog lives near a hunting grounds. I'm just saying, hunting accidents happen all the time and no one really goes to jail for them either..
(1st. Story) Bigger deal if he played for Alabama 😂Roll Tide! And all seriousness, I’m so sad that people can’t just get a divorce! And why can’t they watch these true crime shows to realize they can’t get away with murder.
60 days for a felony... wow. Theres a lot of things that need changed in the judicial system. A man can close fist punch a woman and its a misdemeanor (in IL) domestic violence isn't taken too seriously so not TOO surprised animals arent either.
That’s nothing. Women usually get away with murder they just fake cry and accuse their victims of ”violence” and then they go free. Is that good, is that right?
That poor poor poor poor poor poor baby dog bear. That kills MEEE. It makes me sick. Animals are free of guilt at all times. They don’t make conscious decisions the same way humans do, they’re purely innocent beings. No animal deserves that. I wish I could say here what that murdering murderer deserves. And Of course, the crap ex wife, disgusting of course. But the dog… gosh it hurts. His poor family.
My question is: Did she have her children with her in the Bahamas and her boyfriend, or was she fine leaving them with their "abusive" Dad while she went off to see her boyfriend in the Bahamas? If I truly was afraid of my husband, his obvious self control and his tendency to certain abusive actions, it would be a cold day in Hades that I 'd feel comfortable leaving my kids @ home with him and the stress of work and childcare and possibly his simmering anger and doubts about me to take it out on the kids. If she seemingly didn't have a problem with leaving them behind, it would seem to me to cast some shade on her argument for abuse. Just MHO.
OMG! WTF... I'm sorry for this Family of Bear! I don't know what I would have done if this were my beloved Family Pet!? My lab passed away 9/11/2015. We laid on his couch together and I held him in my arms and told him that, I was going to miss him and love him forever and he could go on to dog heaven! I'm so mad right now! Wth is wrong with some people.. I know what I d to that soul less evil POS but,...My heart goes out to the Family and I will keep you and Bear in my prayers!
The fairy tale is on her believing that the bartender wasn't looking for a woman who had a beautiful home in the Bahamas for him to live in and possibly own 1/2 of in his near future.
For a neighbour to slaughter and cut up the body of a defenceless dog is absolutely horrific. In the US, it happens to 10 billion animals inside slaughterhouses every year while a further 47 billion aquatic animals are forced to suffocate to death before they too are dismembered. It shouldn't happen to ANY animal.
I lived across the street from a marina. Our black lab, Fred, would jump the fence to go swimming at the marina.

I can't even imagine the pain that the owners of that beautiful lab went through and most likely still are. It's sad enough as it is for them to die by old age or accidentally.. but this ..😭I actually owned a black lab and you could not find a more loving, loyal, and gentle soul❤.
My dog is half black lab and half German shepherd, and she is the most loving, patient, protective, loyal, and the smartest dog I could ever hope to have. She got the best of both breeds ♡
I have loved having Rachel as your co-host today, Ana! She is simply delightful, and very knowledgeable. I hope you have her join you again soon and often!
Welcome to the channel Rachel, you are an absolute delight!!! Thank goodness for that luncheon!!! Ana can we have her back soon please? 🎉🥰🫶💯
Wow, so glad you like Rachel.
Yes, let’s have her back!!
Love this guest! Please bring her back 💕
It is horrifying how backwards the USA is in relation to the law treating dogs as possessions instead of as the furry family members they are. If the murderous idiot had done that over here (or in the Bahamas) we would not have gone so easy on him. Respect to the Judge in this case too for expressing his sentiments.
Something needs to be done to change that law. Anyone who can fo that to a dog needs to be locked up.
RIP Bear 😢 If someone did that to one of my beloved animals…trust me they would experience a far worse demise 😡 I’d happily do time for it.
Right on
Absolutely. I wouldn't be able to casually move on from this. There would be hell to pay.
Rachel’s great! Would love to have her as a regular :)
Ok- thanks for the feedback.
We thought she was great too
I can tell you, as a victim of domestic violence, in several relationships (until I realized that I was attracting the domestic abusers, and stopped allowing them in my life), an abuse victim will NOT have an affair for fear of being attacked by their abuser, and killed. So, she and her divorce attorney are throwing that into the mix to influence the judge's decision in her favor, but it is a false allegation. Her attorney is an ambulance chaser type, IMHO. Not above using lies to win the divorce for her with everything she's asking for. Now that she's being tried for conspiracy to commit murder, that's going to go in the husband's favor, not hers. She screwed her case.
That psycopath should've got 20 years minimum, for that animal torchure!!! Shame on law makers for not addressing this sooner!!!
RIP Bear. I used to own a black lab (RIP Kahlua, best pup ever) and they are the sweetest dogs ever. This man is a monster
Agreed. Have a lab myself. This broke my heart.
Labs do not have a mean bone in their body. They befriend everyone and are so incredibly trusting.
What a vile human to do this to such a gentle animal.
He lucked out in two ways. 1. The cops foiled her plan to kill her husband. 2. He gets major revenge in that she is going to prison for life for not only trying to kill him, but for cheating on him too. So she has to rot in prison while he gets to move on with his life, marry a new woman, who will be her kids new mother. That is sweet, sweet revenge.
Agreed
It's a beautiful thing to behold.
And her lover looks like a thug! She had a wonderful life!! And 3 beautiful children! So glad her husband wasn’t murdered!
Should make divorce fairly easy
Well, still absolutely awful for her children- even if they get a nice stepmother, (and I hope they do) the fact is that their mother is their mother and they have lost her, in a most heinous and senseless way. And I say that as a stepmother myself. I hope those kids get lots of support and therapy and that their father focuses on that as opposed to any feelings of “sweet revenge” he may have.
I have a black lab too and this is devastating to hear. That guy is sick
They are the best dogs
So is that woman
Rachel, fantastic choice, so well researched and great pov about animal rights and humane treatment. Good work Ana, looking fabulous too ❤😊
Yes, Rachel was wonderful
One of the best guests on this podcast. She did her research ad explained the issues and laws regarding these cases
I have never owned a dog because i've always lived in apartments. They are definitely Family members and the most warm of all animals.
Due to the fact that serial killers start murdering by torturing & murdering animals, the sentence for murdering animals should be similar to a human murder. The reason for this high sentence is cause an animal and a human feel the same intensity of pain & agony when tortured or murdered
Human life is equal to a dog?
Exactly my thoughts - and yet he only gets 60 days which in no deterrent atall...! Ridiculous
@sakibchoudhury2225 So you're one of those people. Yes, a dog is just as sentient as a person.
Empathy is a human trait. If we don't have it, we can't call ourselves a good human. And if we can't be human, why the hell are we still alive
Also, it's not just about the poor dog. It's about how serial killers start killing people by killing animals first. That's why if they don't get them off the streets for violently cutting up one dog today, they won't care & just cut up people tomorrow, cause they'll presume that no one cared they were violent.
@sakibchoudhury2225 Don't let aliens find you and probe you. They won't see your life as valuable and liken it only to ants
Just watched a vid about a 19 yo wanna be serial killer. He killed a homeless man then dismembered him.
Poor Bear and his family 😞 The neighbour is crazy! If he'd done it by accident thinking it was a dangerous predator then he wouldn't have chopped him up.
She didn't bring up any abuse until after he pushed back on giving her alimony. She needs a damn job.
Hello Ana always a blessing to see you're lovely smiling face each week thank you for sharing 🕊❤️🙏
Your lovely smiling face
It's highlight of my Friday!
Thank you Kathy 🙏🏼have a great weekend
Here's an idea. Get divorced instead of cheating if you want half. You cheat, you get nothing.
Right ??
That’s not always true though
He only got 60 days ???? This is the most disturbing sentence I’ve ever heard!!! If he did that to my family member… I would apply the same act on him before the police is even able to arrest him!!!
That is because you are misguided. It is wrong to kill people; a grievous, mortal sin. Killing animals is not on the same level as killing humans. Witness the slaughter of the American buffalo during the 1st part of America’s history or the slaughter of wild game in Africa so that Americans and Europeans could display the carcasses on their walls. No one protested that such slaughter was wrong or barbaric. Dogs are not part of anyone’s family. They are a different species. Dogs are pets like goldfish or cats or Guinea pigs.
@@wuncieadams1352yes, I will agree with you on a part- it’s not the same killing human and animal- killing an innocent animal is much much worse and more sinister!
He will go from killing and dismembering animals then to killing humans like a serial killer. So he needed a longer sentence. That’s why I make sure my dog never ever gets out and about by himself, when a dog goes on someone else’s property they don’t love the animal like you do and can do something like this. Some people r horrible
@@wuncieadams1352if you were my neighbour I would dismember you if you talked like that...my dog is my family useless pos
@@wuncieadams1352 Are you okay?? Maybe seek some counseling. 🤨
Isn’t it where serial killers start with animals? Only 60 days for killing man’s best friend, sad..especially they way he did it..
Exactly this. And they will release this killer to the public very soon
R.i.p Bear im absolutely disgusted who does this..our pets are OUR BABIES! Heart breaking...the neighbour should have got alot longer he cut the poor dogs head off ffs.. thinking of the family right now 😢
Oh no that poor baby puppy… ugh that was something I was not prepared for.. how sad.. oh my heart breaks got that baby and his owners..💔😪
Thank you Ana and Rachel for another informative and insightful podcast episode. I am familiar with the case where the wife was conspiring with her lover and his friend in the Bahamas to have her husband killed. I will never comprehend why people don’t just get divorced instead of turning to more sinister resolutions. The other case is beyond heartbreaking and gut-wrenching. Our fur babies are beloved family members; the monster that committed such heinous and abhorrent acts on the neighbor’s dog is so reprehensible. I really think the laws for harming animals need to be harsher because they are often a precursor to even more vile acts. Besides, in addition to children and the elderly, animals are innocent and cannot protect themselves… they rely on us for care and protection. Those that harm animals need to face harsher sentences and consequences imo.
All so sad.
Be well- see you next week
Geez. I'm only gonna be able to watch part of this. I can't handle anything with animal abuse 😢 but thank you for the coverage any ways. 💔
We have a farmer, who lives a few miles from us, in Ohio. We used to buy feed for our goats and chickens, and milk replacer for a calf we had, who lost his mother. Since we live in the country, many dogs are just dropped off, when the owner doesn't want to, or can't keep it. We were talking about a recent dog, that showed up, the day my husband was going out of town, so we put it in a fenced area, with our chocolate lab, and planned to call animal control the next day. During the night it got out and maimed one goat so badly, I couldn't wait until morning to call the vet to put it down. It also bit three of our other goats. Anyway, when I told the farmer what happened, he told us about his practice, when a stray came to his house. He said he practices the three SSS's. "Shoot, Shovel, and Shut up!". I was appalled! Several years later,that farmer was arrested for molesting several young boys who worked on his farm! I agree that, when someone kills animals, they likely will go to other crimes, involving humans!
Oh my God - that is a terrifying story
@@AnaGNews what's worse is he's still out of prison. The trial keeps getting delayed.
The dog case made me sick to my stomach I couldn’t even finish it. That dog was so cute such as all animals. What a sicko to hurt an animal.
To the dog abuser: be so glad I wasn't the judge in your case or especially your cell mate. May you rot in hell.
Love this episode! I hope Rachel will come back. She is excellent.
As for the cas with Bear, you ask who does a crime like this. I can tell you that it would be someone like my ex. He’s very intelligent. He worked for NASA at 19 and later on the NSA sought him out for his “moral flexibility”. He was charming and had me fooled for awhile. Oh, and he loved guns. We moved out to the country and the neighbors had several dogs that would get out and chase cars in the street just past our driveway. One day I came home from work to find a note that he had shot the neighbor’s dog because it came after him in the shop. He threw a tarp over it. I went out and saw the tarp but didn’t look under it until the sheriff deputies showed up (he was conveniently in the next county over at band practice). Of course they wanted to see the dog. It was essentially hog tied with rope and dragged over there. Beautiful Dalmatian. After they left, the neighbors came over and yelled at ME! I told them to take it up with my husband. I only knew what he told me.
There’s a reason I’m not married to him anymore. Do I suspect he has the makings of a serial killer? Absolutely! I hope I never see or hear from him or about him ever again.
✨Aawww Ana, thank you for covering Bear's case🩷 I am so absolutely heartbroken, but I feel positive chances in Michigan laws (and hopefully nationwide) are coming... My praises to Michigan law enforcement and the judge, for recognizing the serious nature of this crime, and for addressing the fact that the punishment does not fit the crime. If we do create a new law to protect our animals right's, I hope we will name it "Bear's Law" in his honor⚖️🐕 And I just wanted to add that Rachel was a phenomenal guest!💗 She brought sooo much insightful information to the table, and I found her fascinating☺️ Hugs to you and a smooch to your new pooch, Maegan🌈
Sole custody shouldn’t even be an option anymore, unless there is proven abuse, bc obviously the majority of parents can’t put their children ahead of their emotions & need to hurt each other. RIP Sweet Bear ❤
It shouldn’t. In Canada, at least in Quebec, it’s very rare that a judge will award sole custody. They usually award 50-50 custody because they know that kids need both parents, unless one parent isn’t fit or because they live too far appart and it would be a problem for school or if a parent is away from the home for work too much.
This woman was insanse for throwing her life away. She didnt realize how good she has it till she in jail
Nah this is greed murder for greed only and she knew because of her actions she would loose everything ! She wanted everything thought murder was way to get it all ! Stupidity on her part !
Thank you Ana, for always standing against domestic violence. ❤ I agree we need better laws to protect our furry friends. We owe it to them. 💔
The people who torture and kill animals are the same people that abuse their children, their spouses, and often escalates to murder. There has been a cat serial killer on the loose in Jacksonville Florida, and at horrifies me. Someone witnessed someone punching into a bag and these were peoples beloved pets. We have to do much better, and these crimes need to be Felonise.
Horrible
Omg I live there. I see lots of shit posted on next door about animals and its disturbing. People throwing animals out of cars
@@BelleLeilaNoir That's absolutely heart breaking. 😔
@@BelleLeilaNoir yes. There was an injured kitten someone witness being thrown on a bridge. The witness brought her to the shelter where thankfully she was saved and has been adopted. It was heartbreaking to see what that poor baby went through.
@@BelleLeilaNoir google Jacksonville cat serial killer. That's why my cats are strictly indoor. Horrendous
Michigan is horrible about animal cruelty. Like 3 years ago my friends psycho neighbor who had cops called on him all the time broke onto my friends front porch and tortured her cat and it's 4 kittens to death and mutilated their bodies like literally ripped limbs off and horrific things. Cops came and said they can't do anything about it. Wtf! A man at a trailer park was setting cats on fire in front of screaming and crying children. He got a fine. A fucking fine for causing lifelong trauma to children and murdering animals. An ex sheriff (Jacob Wilkinson) murdered his own k9 dog after it "nipped at him" he duct taped it's legs together and duct taped it's mouth shut and shot it 3 times and hid the body. We all know animal torture more than not turns into human torture eventually so wtf are we doing giving these sickos slaps on the wrist so next time their victim can be a person?! Thank you so much for talking about this I love animals and it makes me so sick to know humans do these things.
If that were my dog that murderer would wish he got life in prison to protect him from the justice I would serve him!!!
If a neighbor did that to my dog, when they came home after 60 days they would get tortured and killed
Anyone does that to my dog, my mommas boy. I would be in prison
Ana I’ve missed you! Stupid RUclips hasn’t been showing me when new videos were posted so I’ve missed the last several weeks 😮 Don’t worry I’ll catch up, but RUclips algorithm needs to do better so I don’t miss your amazing work done each week.
Holy crap. Black labs are seriously the sweetest what is the matter with people. So sad.
Why would anyone murder an innocent dog? Wow! That man is absolute evil! I hope nobody ever employs him again and he ends up homeless!
She will NEVER have a healthy relationship with her 3 boys.......they will always resent her for plotting to murder their father, they will never get over that.
Hello Anna ..this poor dog 😢the man deserves much more than 60 days ..you have to be sick to do such a thing.
Agreed. This is not justice
Protecting animals is protecting humans! We need to come down hard on animal cruelty and animal abuse because that prevents crimes against people!
Congratulations on new Lifetime show. Love crime shows. Will look into.
We need Harder Time For theses crimes.
Hi Ana!!! Welcome to the true crime family, Rachel!!! ❤
If this woman is convicted, she’s going to have a tough time in prison. Apparently Foxhill is one of the worst around with few to no decent facilities. A far cry from her privileged life. She should have cut her losses and reached a divorce settlement. Hope her husband sues her, gets custody of the kids and leaves her nothing.
Why make it a felony with only 60 days. It’s hard to take that punishment seriously. They could at least throw some anger management to make it look like they’re concerned. I sincerely hope his next victim isn’t a-two-legged variety
If someone does that to a dog it wouldn’t be surprising to take it to the next level of a human. Such a sick individual.
Omg that's horrible,poor dog and the poor owner 💙💙💜💛🧡
Hope that dog killer is put in a section with dog lover prisoners!
60 days is a joke. The man who murdered the sweet dog should have gotten 60 years. When he leaves this Earth, Satan will be waiting for him!!!
We're clearly all Dog lovers because the comments seem to be mostly about the dog. Poor baby.
What is he gonna kill next, sick and cruel ash-whole! Standards have been going downhill over and over. Labs are sweet and loving. Dogs have minds of their own nd given the opportunity to run they take it. He didn't hurt anyone. Sad.
Thank you seriously, for talking about the animal cruelty case and the lack of justice in these poor laws. Animals need to be protected.
This “ man “ that killed a family member- BECAUSE A DOG IS A FAMILY MEMBER , should be looked at a deeper level!! I’m almost sure he has done this before human / animal. This horrible!!!!!!!!
I hope they take him to civil court for emotional damages. Its hardly a consolation but 60 days is hardly a punishment
I wonder if the guy that killed the dog lives near a hunting grounds. I'm just saying, hunting accidents happen all the time and no one really goes to jail for them either..
(1st. Story)
Bigger deal if he played for Alabama 😂Roll Tide!
And all seriousness, I’m so sad that people can’t just get a divorce! And why can’t they watch these true crime shows to realize they can’t get away with murder.
60 days for a felony... wow. Theres a lot of things that need changed in the judicial system. A man can close fist punch a woman and its a misdemeanor (in IL) domestic violence isn't taken too seriously so not TOO surprised animals arent either.
That’s nothing. Women usually get away with murder they just fake cry and accuse their victims of ”violence” and then they go free. Is that good, is that right?
How does she feel unsafe in her marriage when she is literally having an affair???
That poor poor poor poor poor poor baby dog bear. That kills MEEE. It makes me sick. Animals are free of guilt at all times. They don’t make conscious decisions the same way humans do, they’re purely innocent beings. No animal deserves that. I wish I could say here what that murdering murderer deserves.
And Of course, the crap ex wife, disgusting of course. But the dog… gosh it hurts. His poor family.
I would cut her off too if sleeping around with another person .. oh well sleep around see ya
Looking forward to Beyond the headlines
That man needs to be jailed 25 years for killing that beautiful dog so sad
You're great, Ana G!!!
My question is: Did she have her children with her in the Bahamas and her boyfriend, or was she fine leaving them with their "abusive" Dad while she went off to see her boyfriend in the Bahamas? If I truly was afraid of my husband, his obvious self control and his tendency to certain abusive actions, it would be a cold day in Hades that I 'd feel comfortable leaving my kids @ home with him and the stress of work and childcare and possibly his simmering anger and doubts about me to take it out on the kids. If she seemingly didn't have a problem with leaving them behind, it would seem to me to cast some shade on her argument for abuse. Just MHO.
OMG! WTF... I'm sorry for this Family of Bear! I don't know what I would have done if this were my beloved Family Pet!? My lab passed away 9/11/2015. We laid on his couch together and I held him in my arms and told him that, I was going to miss him and love him forever and he could go on to dog heaven! I'm so mad right now! Wth is wrong with some people.. I know what I d to that soul less evil POS but,...My heart goes out to the Family and I will keep you and Bear in my prayers!
No f way to family pet this is sick
The fairy tale is on her believing that the bartender wasn't looking for a woman who had a beautiful home in the Bahamas for him to live in and possibly own 1/2 of in his near future.
For a neighbour to slaughter and cut up the body of a defenceless dog is absolutely horrific. In the US, it happens to 10 billion animals inside slaughterhouses every year while a further 47 billion aquatic animals are forced to suffocate to death before they too are dismembered.
It shouldn't happen to ANY animal.
I agree! 😢
I'm not surprised that a woman who got caught hiring a hit man to kill her husband still thinks she is entitled half of his belongings. 🤡
