- Florida, USA -
The Escambia County Sheriff’s Office arrested 72-years-old FELTON CHARLES HENDERSON (pictured) after he allowed his daughter’s dogs to die in a hot car.
During a press conference held on Friday, July 8, Sheriff Chip Simmons said that HENDERSON’s daughter had left her three dogs with her father while she was out of town for a couple of days.
“She left water, she left food, everything that would be needed to take care of these dogs”, said Sheriff Simmons.
When HENDERSON’s daughter returned, she asked her father where her dogs were, so he went to his car, a blue Toyota Camry, opened the door, and pulled out all three dogs, lifeless.
During the times the furbabies were in the car, the temperature reached a high of 91 degrees.
“It is apparent that all he did was put these dogs, lock these dogs in today’s heat, yesterday’s heat, the day before yesterday’s heat, he put these dogs in the blue Toyota Camry knowing full well that they would not survive”, said Sheriff Simmons. “You can imagine the suffering they probably went through,” he added.
At the end of the press conference, Sheriff Simmons invited HENDERSON to turn himself in saying there was an active warrant out for his arrest for animal cruelty.
The sheriff’s office later posted HENDERSON’s mugshot on Facebook and advised that he had been arrested.
Online arrest records show that HENDERSON, of Cantonment, was booked into the Escambia County Jail on charges of animal cruelty causing death, pain and suffering. Bond was set at $45,000 and he was released on the late evening of Monday, July 11.
HENDERSON is scheduled to appear in court on July 29, 2022, at 8:30 a.m.
As Sheriff Simmons said: “This is no way to treat an animal. They rely on you to give them the care and the concern and you did none of that. So, you will go to jail.”

This G-d awful meatsuit deserves nothing but the most horrible punishment allowed! His ugly sneer explains so much. He purposefully locked those babies in a car in this hot as hell summer for 3 days! Who could do that?! A subhuman. A monster. Damn, my heart aches for these precious souls & I pray justice is served!
