A Ohio police officer has been accused of two counts of animal cruelty when a witness saw Derik Willhelm throw kittens from his window on two separate occasions while driving roughly 70 mph.



When the authorities arrived at the first scene they couldn't find any evidence of the crime, however when they arrived at the second location a kitten was found on the side of the road and treated for injuries. Derik Willhelm, the police officer accused of the crimes denies these allegations.

the fact that this guy is a cop has no real bearing on the story. now if he was a humain center worker ......the fact that he is a cop only means that he realy should know better. unfortunately he may tend to be taken at his word in court based on his profession as opposed to a normal citizen.

lol the 'Kitten Tossing Cop' will sure get a nice time in prision if he goes!!

Another desensitization op as mentioned in the tazering of a pregnant woman by a cop thread? Would be interesting to see the reactions of most people now who read this and say those of 10 years ago.

Wait till Animal-Rights Activitist get a hold of this story. Maybe the FBI was right. Sure would hate to see another vehicle get 'firebombed'.

Well, this kind of thing is about what I would expect from the Clockwork Orange "Droogie" model of police officer that the US seems to be turning out these days. I trust Police Officers even less than I trust most average citizens. Nothing these power-tripping droogies do surprises me.

Sadistic cretins...

Excuse me, what do you mean it means nothing that he is an officer of the law?

Thats right some think cops are all good and are exempt from the law.

Of course if he were a federal judge he would be considered a Nazi and be expected to do something like that.

Maybe the way they do it in Swiss villages up in the Alps is even worse. At least a kitten thrown out the window of a speeding car has a second chance.

A Swiss schoolmate of ours once told us that unwanted kittens there are drowned in pails filled with water. They're thrown in and then some bricks are piled on top of them to keep them immersed until they drown.

This suggests that avalanches, which the Swiss call "the White Death", are a karmic retribution for the national karmic debt that they incur by carrying out such cruel deeds. Every year many die a slow death by suffocation under the snow. It's as though life were asking, "And how would YOU feel if they did something like that to you?"
