I'm surprised that it was a female, but that is all that surprises me. In this particular case, I don't believe it is the actions of a future serial killer. I don't believe she was doing anything out of the ordinary... for her or for the environment in which she lives. I am NOT defending her actions. My heart breaks for those babies, dying that way, alone in that freezing water. But, there are people that view animal life as less than human life and think nothing of drowning puppies and kittens. I know people that value dogs but not cats. They would never drown puppies, but would definitely drown a litter of kittens. It is all relative to what people appreciate and what they don't. The Bosnian authorities may be forced to take action only because they were stupid enough to post the recording and public outrage will force them to do something. Not unlike the British twit that threw the cat in the trashcan on camera and rained outrage on her head. There are adults in this country that drown litters in rivers and lakes everyday. They usually put them in sacks. And they are not stupid enough to speak of it. As the earlier poster mentioned having been in law enforcement, I'm sure they know guys that used cats for target practice late at night, also. I do. I let them know what I think of it, as well.

Most animal haters that are going to be serial killers enjoy torturing animals, not so much casual disposal of them as is the case here. Tossing litters is cheaper than spaying and neutering nowadays. Sad but true. If there were free spay/neuter programs, it would go a long way towards preventing these kind of incidents and solving our overcrowded shelter problems.
