JEFFREY WRIGHT arrested after being caught on video aggressively beating a dog unable to fight back

- Arizona, USA -


On March 11, 2023, the Peoria Police Department received a call reporting a male abusing a dog. The reporting party explained they saw a male brutally beating a dog in the backyard of their neighbor at a home in the 25800 block of N 107th Drive in Peoria.


In a news release, Peoria Police said that Peoria Police Animal Control Officers responded to investigate and learned from the caller that they witnessed a man “abusing a dog by body slamming and kicking it repeatedly.” The caller also advised officers that the despicable actions had been caught on video.


Police said that in the video, the suspect later identified as 42-years-old JEFFREY WRIGHT (pictured), can be seen “kicking the dog, body slamming it, punching it and putting his knee on the dog causing the dog to defecate.”


Animal Control Officers took the Voiceless Victim for medical care and it was determined to have non-life-threatening injuries.


Police said that according to the dog’s guardian, WRIGHT “was just visiting at the house when the incident occurred.” To this regard, Arizona’s Family added that the dog’s guardian told investigators that “she’s had an on-and-off relationship with Wright for a few years and that he stays at the home ‘when he appears to be off drugs’.”


The furbaby was then returned to his/her guardian and the case was turned over to Peoria Police Detectives for additional follow up.


Detectives later learned that WRIGHT “had returned to the home and was staying at the residence on a regular basis,” said police.


On the early morning of Thursday, April 6, 2023, Peoria Police Property Crimes Detectives and Peoria Police Animal Control arrested WRIGHT.

The animal abuser was processed at the Peoria Police Department, and later booked at the Maricopa County Jail on a felony Animal Cruelty charge. Police said charges may be added or amended as needed.


The furvictim was “seized due to the suspect having a domestic relationship with the dog owner,” stated the release.


Just think, the witness reported the abuse on March 11, WRIGHT was arrested on April 6 and visited the home “on a regular basis”. How many times has the poor dog been abused before being rescued?


Many thanks to the witness who did not turn a blind eye! See something, make the call, save a life!

ROGER HENRY ALEXANDER, Ottawa University student, accused of murdering a defenseless javelina

- Arizona, USA -


On Wednesday, January 25, 2023, the Surprise Police Department arrested 20-years-old ROGER HENRY ALEXANDER (pictured) for beating an innocent javelina to death with a baseball bat.


ALEXANDER is a sophomore at Ottawa University based in Surprise, a private Christian university, where he's an outfielder on the baseball team.


According to the Arizona Game and Fish Department website, “Though some people think javelina are a type of wild pig, they are actually members of the peccary family, a group of hoofed mammals originating from South America.”


The murder of the defenseless creature was captured on camera and posted on Snapchat.


Police said that on January 18, 2023, ALEXANDER, parked in the area of Bullard Avenue and Waddell Road with his headlights on, blinding the javelina. ALEXANDER then exited the vehicle with a baseball bat and batting gloves and SENSELESSLY and CRUELLY hit the javelina in the head causing his/her death. Police said ALEXANDER is then seen on the video laughing and smiling.


ALEXANDER was booked into the Maricopa County Jail on one felony count of animal cruelty and one misdemeanor count of intentional unnecessary physical injury to an animal. He was also issued four citations by the Arizona Game and Fish Department.


According to the Arizona Game and Fish Department, it is unlawful to trap javelina and it is unlawful to injure or kill javelinas even if they are causing a problem, unless certain rigorous provisions under the law have been met.


Arizona’s Family reports that when ALEXANDER was taken into custody at a home near Litchfield and Greenway roads, officers asked him why he hit the javelina, and he said he thought they were a “nuisance animal,” so he didn’t think it mattered.


Kevin Steele, Athletic Director for Ottawa University, said in a statement to Arizona’s Family: “We have investigated the situation and communicated with officials from Arizona Fish and Wildlife, as well as, the Surprise Police Department. We regret that any one of our student-athletes were involved in this action but we are handling it properly and privately. Ottawa University will always hold its students to a high standard as we work and serve in the community we live.”


FOX 10 reports that ALEXANDER worked for Top Choice Officials A-Z, which trains umpires, and Bryan Fields said in a statement: “Top Choice Officials strongly condemn abuses of any kind. As an independent contractor, Roger Alexander will no longer be associated with Top Choice Officials.”

BETTY LYNNE FUCHSEL arrested – Forty-three dogs removed from her properties

- Arizona, USA -


The Mohave County Sheriff’s Office announced the arrest of 77-years-old BETTY LYNNE FUCHSEL (pictured).


In a news release the sheriff’s office said that its Animal Enforcement Division has been conducting an ongoing complaint of animal hoarding at two separate residences, owned by FUCHSEL, located in the Dolan Springs area.

According to the complaint, “some of these animals were running at large and attacking livestock in the area.”

As indicated in the release, one of the properties is located in the 15000 block of N. Garnet Drive and the other one is in the 16000 block of N. Kathleen Drive.


The sheriff’s office said that over the past several years FUCHSEL “has received several citations in reference to the violations and failed to comply or appear in court.”


FUCHSEL was placed under arrest on January 11, 2023, “for warrants that had been issued for her arrest for failing to appear on these charges,” stated the release.


After FUCHSEL’s arrest, authorities executed a search warrant on both her properties and this is how the sheriff’s office described it:

“Upon entering the two residences, the floors were found to be covered with feces, trash, and urine. Several dogs were found to be locked up inside the residence and in vehicles on the property, with no access to food or water. The dogs were found to be emaciated and in various stages of neglect. During the search of the properties, a total of forty-three dogs were seized. Several of the dogs were taken for immediate emergency veterinarian care.”


The VOICELESS VICTIMS removed from the properties were turned over to the care and custody of the Mohave County Animal Shelter.


In addition to her violations and arrest, FUCHSEL is also charged with forty-three counts of animal cruelty, a class 5 felony.


I have emailed the Mohave County Sheriff’s Office to inquire whether any deceased animals were found on the properties and its spokesperson told me: “I have not been made aware of any deceased animals found on the property.”
