Focus: Animal Welfare
Action Request: Petition
Location: United States
Lee County Animal Conrol Officer Wayne Martin was fired but needs to be brought up on animal cruelty charges in violation of and as defined by Virginia law, 3.1-796.122a, b, h & i, - Cruely to Animals as well as 3.1-796-119 - Capturing, confining, and euthanizing companion animals by animal control officers; approval of drugs, etc., used.

Sources have stated that Martin would put three to four dogs at a time in the kill box (gas chamber).  The law states that only one dog at time can go in the box.  Sources also stated that he used a power hose to wash down the kennels with ice cold water, never bothering to remove the dogs and/or puppies first.
