No Justice: Man Gets Prison Time For Cat-Killing Spree

[Sugar Cookie]

A South Korean man has been sentenced to 14 months in prison for killing 76 cats in one of the country’s most gruesome cases of animal cruelty in recent years.

The man, who is in his 20s, was convicted of violating South Korea’s animal protection law last week, the Changwon District Court in southeastern South Korea said Tuesday. The court did not identify the man.

The man went on a cat-killing spree between December 2022 and September 2023 due to a deep hatred of the animal that he began harboring after other cats scratched his car, according to a court verdict seen by The Associated Press.

He had caught stray cats and adopted others from online sites before strangling some to death and killing others with scissors, the court order said. He killed one cat by running it over with a car, the court said.

The court ruled that the prison sentence was unavoidable because he repeatedly committed “indescribably cruel” crimes in a premeditated manner.


It stressed that the sentence still reflected the fact that the man had no criminal records and repented his crimes, adding that the man’s unspecified mental health status was found to be a motive for his crimes.

There's 100s of stray cats in my neighborhood, I'd never think of killing them. I would think of getting a pet Komodo dragon though.

Why you so hate?

What an asswipe! What would he do if a bird pooped on his car? Take revenge on every single bird he ever saw?

How do I teach my cats to fear and hate other humans?

A cat scratched his car??!!! WTF?? A grocery cart would do more damage! He’s a sociopath and should be listed on every abuse registry there is! His “hatred” of cats is just a thinly veiled excuse to attack something smaller than he is. He would not hesitate to attack a child, given the chance.
