Yes, and that is the ignorant problem with humans, and which for me usually makes it even worse.

Don't try and defend their actions...

you are an idiot to think so ! A humain, a dog, a horse whatever ... they attacked a living thing for fun. I would be glad to smach their teets with a skate board !

Thats just where it starts. If someone has the ability to abuse an animal like a dog in such a matter they surely could do it to a human as well.

wtf listen to this part...

The dog was found by San Angelo animal services personnel several blocks away less than a week later. It was euthanized after no one adopted it.

Johnson also was fined $500 and ordered to complete 60 hours of community service. Johnson is also to avoid contact with Kevin Ward Wright, 18, whose trial on the same state jail felony charge of cruelty on Tuesday was delayed until January.

I cant believe people are so fucking horrible. Even worse is the fact the city killed the poor dog even though it was alright. They could have auctioned it off on the PETA website and paid for animal shelter for hundreds of dogs.

A state district judge convicted Jonathan Benjamin Johnson on Monday of felony cruelty to animals and sentenced him to probation, ending a trial where attorneys sparred over whether Johnson was guilty of torturing the dog he beat with a skateboard.

Johnson, 18, remained expressionless as Judge Ben Woodward declared that Johnson did torture the stray dog in a downtown San Angelo parking garage March 1.,

Rather than order jail time, as prosecutors had requested, Woodward sentenced Johnson to two years of probation, with a one-year suspended sentence and a $500 fine. As part of his probation, Johnson must perform 60 hours of community service and avoid contact with his co-defendant, Kevin Ward Wright, 18.

''You made a mistake,'' Woodward said. ''And now it's time to pay the consequences for that.''

Because state law allows an enhanced charge for torturing an animal but provides no definition of torture, Woodward, prosecutor John Best and defense attorney Kirk Hawkins debated whether the beating - one blow delivered by Johnson - warranted the felony charge.

Cruelty to animals is a Class A misdemeanor, but a finding of torture enhances the charge to a state-jail felony, punishable by as many as two years in prison.

The case attracted national attention when Johnson and Wright sent the video they made of the beating to friends through e-mail and instant messaging, according to court documents. Animal-rights Web sites posted the video and formed letter-writing campaigns to Best and state district judges.

In an interview after the trial, Johnson said he regretted his actions.

''It was like a spur-of-the-moment thing,'' he said. ''There's not a day that goes by when I don't think of it four or five times and wish I could erase it and start over.''

Johnson was beaten up by a group of boys at a local skate park after the video became public, he said, a reiteration of statements he made during a videotaped confession played in court.

The trial turned emotional as Best played a video of the beating. Two people - the mothers who initially called police when they saw the video sent to their children in March - left the courtroom in tears.

The video shows the dog lying in a corner next to a vending machine in the Twohig Street parking garage when Johnson lunges forward, smashing a skateboard with two hands into the side of the dog's head.

The dog, after first jumping and barking, begins to stagger against the machine as one boy yells, ''You whacked it good!'' followed by laughter.

As the dog tries to turn away into the corner, another blow with the skateboard is delivered to its neck. The dog then curls into the corner.

Wright is scheduled to appear at a pre-trial hearing at 9 a.m. today. He also is charged with cruelty to animals with a torture enhancement, as well as felony criminal mischief in an unrelated case.

The felony conviction was important, Best said, because it set a precedent that will make cruelty-torture charges easier to prosecute.

''In all the case law, I didn't find any cases that had facts similar to this,'' he said. ''In that sense, it's good for other prosecutors prosecuting these types of cases.''

Best argued that a dictionary definition of torture as ''mental or physical anguish'' fit Johnson's actions, as did a body of state-court decisions that never ruled out such actions as torture.

Hawkins in turn argued that other cases where judges found torture was committed involved far worse crimes, such as poisoning, cooking and drowning animals.

Johnson, as a first offender, did not deserve jail time, regardless of public opinion, he said.

''He's suffered the wrath of the community,'' Hawkins said. ''This is a good kid who's never been in trouble before.''

According to testimony, San Angelo Animal Services picked up the dog, a red chow-German shepherd mix with a red collar, several blocks away less than a week later. The dog later was euthanized after no one adopted it.

Only a handful of people watched the trial. Bill Lockett, a city animal services board member, said the violence of the beating deserved the harsher charge.

''I'm glad there was a conviction,'' he said, ''and I'm glad it was a felony offense"

Kevin Ward Wright's trial has been postponed til Jan 4th.

Posted: Dec 5, 2004 - 10:36 AM

The first of two teens accused of beating a dog with a skateboard is scheduled to stand trial Monday, charged with cruelty to animals involving torture.

Joshua Benjamin Johnson, 18, is accused of beating a stray Labrador retriever in the face with his skateboard March 1. The subsequent videotape of the beating, allegedly made by Johnson and Kevin Ward Wright, also 18, was distributed across the Internet and broadcast repeatedly in local media.

Johnson, who pleaded not guilty to the cruelty charge, waived his right to a jury trial in a hearing earlier this year, preferring to be tried before a state district court judge. The trial begins at 9 a.m.

Kevin Ward Wright has since been arrested for felony criminal mischief following a June incident in which he allegedly drove a pickup truck onto a Bentwood Country Club putting green, causing more than $7,000 in damage, according to a police affidavit. He is scheduled to face a pre-trial hearing in the dog case Tuesday at 9 a.m.

San Angelo Animal Services and San Angelo Parks Police searched for the dog after the video became public, but no proof exists that they ever found it, said Leslie Hart, director of animal services.

''To the best of my knowledge, we don't know that the dog we found'' was the dog in the video, Hart said.

The video spread through skateboarding and animal-abuse channels, eliciting several letter-writing campaigns to the case's prosecutor, Assistant District Attorney John Best, urging he seek the maximum penalty for Johnson and Wright.
