BAKERSFIELD, Calif. (KGET) — Kern County Sheriff’s deputies accused of using a cat as target practice have been disciplined and they’re back at work.
The incident happened at the Hart Park training facility back in March.
A woman walking in the park said she saw the deputies shoot a cat and kill it.
This case is completed. The allegations were sustained. The officers involved were appropriately disciplined. I met with animal rights groups; they’re content with what we’re doing,” Youngblood said on 17 News at Sunrise. “They’re back to work, but they’ve been disciplined and that’s about all I can tell you without violating the peace officer bill of rights.”
What do you base that on? Even if the gassing is automated, like for most pig slaughterhouses, the killing usually still happens by hand in all videos I’ve seen.
i was being facetious while hopefully also making a salient point about the hands-off progress we find in abattoirical technology. i am hard pressed to imagine a person making those arguments being “pleased” about autoslaughter.
