Full interview from Claire Jones and myself from the “Justice for Tank” animal cruelty case. This was a case we advocated for the maximum sentence possible. Steven Eldridge was given 1 year and a $1,000 fine for locking “Tank” the dog in a bathroom with no food or water. Tank’s kidneys shut down after the water ran out in the toilet bowl and slowly he died. It was an agonizing death. Slow and painful. Steven Eldridge did this on purpose. Let that sink in. He admitted to police it was to spite his exwife. He also gave other excuses like “I lost the keys to the apartment” and “the new place would not accept animals”. Pathetic! We will continue to be the voice for the voiceless!!! We will continue to advocate for the harshest punishments for these crimes towards animals!!! If you’d like to get involved please contact us on Facebook @ AME Animal Rescue. Help us save lives and put scum bags that hurt animals behind bars where they belong!

Thank you Claire Jones for her intrepid reporting and her love for animals.
