CONVICTED: Was justice served?
more information on voting
When you vote, you are voting on whether or not the punishment fit the crime, NOT on the severity of the case itself. If you feel the sentence was very weak, you would vote 1 star. If you feel the sentence was very strong, you would vote 5 stars.
Please vote honestly and realistically. These ratings will be used a a tool for many future programs, including a "People’s Choice" of best and worst sentencing, DA and judge "report cards", and more. Try to resist the temptation to vote 1 star on every case, even if you feel that 100 years in prison isn’t enough.

Dog shot
Suisan City, CA (US)Incident Date: Wednesday, Aug 13, 2003
County: Solano
Disposition: Convicted
Defendant/Suspect: Jefri Raymond Davis
A California man who has pleaded no contest to one felony count of cruelty to animals in the wake of an incident that left a dog partially paralyzed.
Jefri Raymond Davis, allegedly shot Buddy, his neighbor's dog, in the back using a .45 caliber semi-automatic pistol. Although Buddy survived, he has suffered paralysis in his hind legs, giving him little to no mobility. The dog also has needed intensive physical therapy and assistance in urinating as a result of his injuries.
Court Records indicate Buddy was near the property line but not on the defendant's property when the shooting occurred in Suisan, Calif.
Court records also indicate that the defendant shows no remorse for the incident.
The Pre-Sentence Report from the Probation Department recommends one year in jail and a $5,000 fine as part of Davis' sentence.
To encourage the judge to follow the recommendations of the Pre-Sentence Report, send a letter to:
The Honorable Peter Foor
