Description
WARNING: This story contains graphic content related to animal abuse.
A man who plead guilty to torturing and killing at least ten cats will be sentenced Friday morning, March 1st.
The owners whose pets he killed will be there too.
Joshua Boyer was arrested by San Diego Humane Society Law Enforcement at his home in Escondido. Investigators say they were able to catch Boyer through warrants on Craigslist, where they say he would lie to adopt animals for free and then torture and kill them.
Boyer is facing charges going back to May 2019 including 10 counts of animal cruelty and one count of possession of metal knuckles.
Leonard the Cat is just one of Boyer’s victims. Leonard’s picture is featured on a flyer asking supporters to come to the sentencing as a sign to the judge to deliver the stiffest penalty possible, which is eight years behind bars.
