NEW ORLEANS MAN KILLS OWN DOG IN
A HORRIFIC ACT OF ANIMAL CRUELTY

Seeking Supporters in Lakeview Cruelty Case Tomorrow (Tues. 12/2)

Nearly a year ago, the LA/SPCA investigated the case of Fabian Mumme, a Lakeview resident, who brutally axed to death “Wolfie” one of his dogs. The case was scheduled for trial on October 31st but was continued as the defendant asked for a jury trial. It has been rescheduled for tomorrow, Tuesday, December 2nd at 11 a.m. in the Criminal Court Building at the corner of Tulane and Broad. It will be held in Judge Arthur Hunter’s Court, Section K, located on the second floor of the court building.

The Assistant District Attorney office is again asking for LA/SPCA supporters to be in attendance as they feel it is important for Judge Hunter and the jurors to visually see how important animal cruelty is by filling the courtroom with LA/SPCA supporters wearing logo-ed shirts. We are inviting supporters to attend the trial and encouraging you to wear a LA/SPCA shirt if you have one. We are also asking for your help forwarding this message to anyone who you think might be able to join us tomorrow.

Here is the original press release to refresh your memory about the case, and thank you to all who attended last month.


Update 12/02/08 - Trial Continued to Monday, December 8, 10 a.m.
