Judge Cicconetti of Painesville, Ohio likes to do things a bit differently in his courtroom.
He believes in trulymaking the punishment fit the crime, which often results in creative and unexpected sentences.
This past September, Alyssa Morrow pleaded guilty to animal cruelty. She left her dog, Moose, locked up inside her dirt-ridden house. For an entire week, Moose was all alone with no one to take care of him.
When he was finally rescued, his saviors were shocked and appalled by his condition. Moose’s fur was falling out.
He was starving and thirsty. Rather than throwing her in jail like most judges would do, Judge Cicconetti made Alyssa – Dog Abuser do something that many people would find much more repulsive.
First, he spoke on behalf of Moose, noting how frightened he must have been during his abandonment.
Then, Judge Cicconetti looked Alyssa – Dog Abuser right in the eyes and said.
“Maybe you should get a little taste of that, but I’m going to let you have a choice here, and the choice is I want you to live like Moose, and in order to do that I want you to go down to the county dump, to the landfill, and I want them to find the stinkiest smelliest god-awful odor place they can find in that dump and I want you to sit there for 8 hours tomorrow, to think what you did to that dog while you smell the odor. If you puke, you puke.”
Do you think the punishment fits the crime?

Shouldn’t b so critical on her appearance and wonder y she did this in the 1st place… no animal in her care should b treated this way.. hopefully she doesn’t have children. The judge did the best thing here hopefully she learnt from this.

Not enough. She knows it’ll be over in less than 8 hours. Make her live there for an unknown amount of time. See how she likes the psychological torture.

Jail would be too clean for her.

The dog was left in her filthy house, so why would being at a dump bother her? He should have made her clean kennels at a shelter for a couple weeks.

The judge should of made her live in that house locked up no food/water for a week! She acted like no big deal at the dump. WTH? Not harsh enough for a punishment then.

8 hours not long enough, period
Mary Reisinger

8 hrs? That is nothing. She should get at least a year behind bars and never allowed to own any other animal.

Thank you judge. She should never be allowed to own an animal again.
Samantha Bennison

Why only 8 hours!? Why not make her sit there for a full week with no food or water
Karin Clark

No captions but I think I love the judge wow. The$#%&!@*was so cruel & thoughtless about dog. So she can’t ever allow to have any pet including cats or birds & all.

The punishment does not fit the crime, (some) judges are too leniant and might as well have just smacked her on the hand! Prison time, lots of it! They’ll get the abuse in prison.

I would say handcuff her feet and hands, shackle her to sumthin’ where she can’t stand or move and dangle a cheeseburger in front of her fat face for a week. hopefully it’ll rain and birds will crap on her!!!

People keep whining about the animal cruelty posts.. Maybe it’s because groups like this have people that care about animals.. Where do you want it to be posted? Is there a facebook group that is all about animal cruelty? I don’t like to see it either but it’s better that someone who actually cares see’s these things than someone who doesn’t care.
Gloria Rivera

He should have ordered her to stay there for the whole week!
Lisa Casey
