Reward offered and investigation underway after severely emaciated puppy found abandoned in Cobb County

- Georgia, USA -


A $10,000 reward is being offered for information leading to the identification of a male who abandoned a puppy on the porch of a home on Forest Lane SE., Marietta.


The incident happened on February 21, 2025, and it was captured by the homeowner’s surveillance camera.

The following day, the homeowner discovered the puppy, who resembles a Labradoodle, in a metal cage that had no food, water or bedding. The furvictim was severely emaciated and Detectives from the Cobb County Animal Cruelty Investigation Unit say at the time, temperatures were as low as 30 degrees.


The homeowner took the pup to Cobb County Animal Services and days later he was examined using the Purina body conditioning system. The findings revealed his ribs, lumbar vertebrae, pelvic bones, and all bony prominences were visible from a distance, with no discernible body fat and a noticeable loss of muscle mass.


Anyone with information on this case can submit a tip anonymously to the Crime Stoppers Atlanta tip line at 404-577-TIPS (8477), online, or by texting CSGA and the tip to 738477. Alternatively, tips can be emailed to Detective Whitley. Thank you!

TIMORRA INSHALLA ROGO arrested for the death of her dog who was found in the Chattahoochee River

- Georgia, USA -

 

The Cobb County Police Department arrested 31-years-old TIMORRA INSHALLA ROGO (pictured).

 

ROGO is accused of drowning her own dog who was found in the Chattahoochee River.

 

Mr. Stephen Hammond, Director of Cobb County Animal Services, tells me that the furvictim was discovered on July 11, 2023, “in the river near the boat ramp at Paces Mill Park by park workers.” Mr. Hammond explained that “...The river had been shut down due to contamination for about 10 days prior.”

 

He identified the furvictim as a 2-year-old male English Bulldog named Hodor.

 

Hodor was placed in a cage along with rocks with the evil intention of drowning the helpless soul. Mr. Hammond said: “Two rocks weighing about 8 pounds had been used to weigh down the cage.” Upon finding the cage, park workers alerted Animal Services and Hodor “was impounded as evidence.”

 

Hodor’s body was then sent to UGA for a necropsy. It took a while for the report to come back because there are so many animal cruelty cases that sadly have horrible endings. Results showed that Hodor died from drowning.

 

“Detective Whitley, our Animal Cruelty Investigator from the Cobb County Police Department took over the case and through his investigation was able to identify and locate the owner and perpetrator”, further explained Mr. Hammond.

 

ROGO was arrested on the late evening of April 18, 2024, and charged with felony aggravated cruelty to animals. At the time of writing, records show that ROGO is being held at the Cobb County Adult Detention Center. A Cobb County Judge denied bond.

 

Mr. Hammonds did not send me Hodor’s pictures as they are “too graphic to share.”

- Georgia, USA -

 

The Cobb County Police Department arrested 28-years-old JOSEF LIMBAGA LUAGUE and 26-years-old NORMAL THOMAS KIBE (both pictured), both of Marietta.

 

LUAGUE and KIBE, former Cobb County Animal Control employees, were arrested in two separate incidents.

 

LUAGUE was arrested on February 9, 2024, after he “aggressively slammed a dog between the door and the metal frame of a cage”, reports FOX 5 Atlanta. The news outlet further reports that according to another court document, LUAGUE is “also accused of kicking a dog.”

 

Nine days later, on February 18, 2024, KIBE was arrested for slamming a cat against a wall. The incident happened in January 2024, at Cobb County Animal Control shelter while KIBE was still an employee. According to FOX 5 Atlanta, records also show that KIBE “‘forcefully threw’ a soft pet carrier with a cat inside it on the same day.”

 

LUAGUE and KIBE were released after posting bond and are awaiting their next court dates.

 

Cobb County Animal Control wrote in a statement: “These are isolated incidents and don't reflect the dedication and hard work of our employees.”


The investigation is still active.
