Helping Jonny Walker

[Kev68]

Appears Jonny jaw was fractured in two places, lost some teeth, and broken nose. We are not gonna let this rest, I plan to send our local Sheriff an e-mail so I can get a complete follow up on the law enforcement end. I spoke to a neighbor this morning the is an Police Officer for Home Land Security. He stated that if he had been home at the time this had occured, he would had made the arrest and local Sheriffs Office would have had to follow through.
I spoke to Jasons family a little bit ago to get a breif story about Jonny Walker. They told me Jonny was dropped off mailnurshed and has been a member of the community longer than most of the tenants here. He has been shot with pellit guns and hit by a car.(It would Appear Jonny Walker is a fighther when it comes to life).
Everyone here has the image inbedded in their heads this animal bleading and clinging to life. I also have this image in my head, but mine goes futher, I was the only eyewitness to the beating this punk kids did to poor Jonny Walker. I am glad I was outside observing this kids strange behaivors. Other wise we would have nothing to go on and they would have murdered Jonny.
What effects me the most is seeing my step kids and Jason's little sister crying and asking how those other kids could do that.
The Police brought the oldest kid (which I think they should have brought them all 1 at a time), to see what he had done and he showed no remorse. This kid needs true help, as well as the others that inticed Jonny off the porch to get this beating. I hope CARMA finds these kids before its to late. If its animals now, they will move up to Kids and adults if they are not prosicuted.
A neighbor asked what they could do to help I told them we made a Jonny Walker Fund to help cover his expenses they said "All we have is this Change". I told them even if it was 50cents it was a help. It turned out to be $43.50 in change. Jonny will be greatful for that. I think total estimates are as it stands right now is up to $2500.00. Jonny is unable to eat so his still on the IV Drip until he is able to have his surgery.

Just Spoke with the Vet, Jonny has been resting all day. He is still on the IV Drip, He turned his head from the food today
He however did drink a little water today, They are going to try and give him some more food and water at 11pm, come midnight he will no longer be offered food until after his surgery in the morning. We were told if we would like to call back after 11 and see if he has drank or eaten to feel free to do so.
We however do understand that it is afterhours and they have their service on so yes we press 1 for the Emergency so we can speak to a staff member and get information on Jonny. Earlier I called and they took my number because they were busy. It took them a couple hours but they did call back and gave me a condition update. We will continue to keep you all posted on Jonny's condition as updates become avaliable.

I just sent the Sheriff of our parish the following e-mail;
Hello Sheriff Graves,
I am contacting you on a matter that occured on July 17, 2010. We live in Springfield Mobile Home Park, and some kids lured a dog off the neighbors porch and attacked him with baseball bat. The dog recieved serious injuries to his mouth and nose. His jaw bone was fractured in 2 places. We were also instructed by the Officer to bring him to the Vet. So we transported him to La Veterinary Referral Center in Mandeville, La. They stated they would supply you with a detailed list of all injuries.
The Officer the was here stated we could pick up a copy of the Police Report in 3 to 5 days. However we did not recieve a Report number. The portion of this that bothers me the most is when the Officer brought the boy to see what he had done this child showed no remorse for what he had done. He walked up to the dog with a smile on his face and left with that same smile on his face. I was the eyewitness that seen the whole incident occur. These kids had chased another dog with bats just before the brutal attack on the other dog. Granted I understand the dog should have been on a leash and the kids wouldn't have been able to intice him to come to them for this beating, but I think God he wasn't on a leash because he wouldn't have been able to get away. This dog is going to have to have Surgery in the morning that is going to cost $2500.00+.
I understand that there are other important issues the Sheriff's Office has but Studies show most kids that do this with animals later turns into children and adults. I greatly appreicate your time in this matter and hope you can give our community any update in this matter.

I will post his response when he replies.
