I have heard tell that people in prison for animal cruelty generally get treated really badly by the rest of the prison population, much like people who are rapists or child molestors. I'm sure the creep will get what is coming to him one way or other.

I really wish that all states would make animal cruelty a felony. Especially when one considers how often it is linked to later or concurrent spousal abuse, child abuse, and other types of abusive behavior, there is absolutely no reason why it should be taken so lightly in so many cases.
