On the early evening of March 22, 2025, deputies with the Hidalgo County Sheriff’s Office responded to the 100 block of East El Dora Road in Donna to investigate a call about possible animal cruelty.


Upon arrival, deputies were met by the concerned resident, a 10-year-old boy, who showed them video evidence of 70-year-old JUAN PEDRO DELGADILLO BECERRA (pictured), repeatedly striking a small dog.


When deputies spoke with BECERRA, he admitted to “disciplining the dog but denied causing harm”, stated the release by the sheriff’s office.

According to the sheriff’s office, the dog had food, water, shelter, and no visible injuries.


The following day, deputies spoke with BECERRA again and placed him under arrest on one count of animal cruelty.

Deputies removed two dogs from BECERRA’s property and then alerted Animal Control.


An officer with the Hidalgo County Health and Human Services Animal Control Division was dispatched to assess the dogs’ wellbeing and they are now in the care of Palm Valley Animal Shelter.


BECERRA was arraigned on March 24, 2025, and bond was set at $3,000. At the time of writing, online arrest records show that BECERRA was released from the Hidalgo County Jail on March 25, 2025.

The Petal Police Department arrested an 11-year-old boy for killing a family’s dog.


On the afternoon of March 17, 2025, police received a call about a dog being attacked with a large stick.

The furvictim a 7-year-old male named Chico, was Timber Roberts’ dog. He was leashed behind the building of his family’s business on Old Richton Road, with his sister Romie, where he was taken to every day. Ms. Roberts’ stepdad found Chico lifeless later that afternoon.


Video footage from a neighbor showed a boy walking up and striking Chico multiple times.


Police charged the juvenile with aggravated animal cruelty and the case has been submitted to the Juvenile Youth Court. Because of his age, he won’t be prosecuted as an adult.


The boy was visiting his grandmother and she was charged with neglect as she failed to provide adequate supervision of a child.


Ms. Roberts is petitioning to strengthen Mississippi animal cruelty laws in support of Senate Bill 2261, also known as “Buddy’s Law.” Please, click here to sign the petition. Thank you.

The Madison County Sheriff’s Office is reaching out to the public for assistance with two animal cruelty investigations after the discovery of three deceased dogs.


On February 26, 2025, two deceased dogs were found discarded in trash bags along Burns Road in Midway. The sheriff’s office identified the furvictims as an adult male chocolate Labrador and a young adult male Shepherd mix.

According to the sheriff’s office, both dogs “had apparent gunshot wounds to the abdomens and chest consistent with buckshot” and neither of them were microchipped or wearing a collar.


In a separate case, on March 12, 2025, a deceased dog was found tied to a guardrail in the 5300 block of FM 1372 in North Zulch. The furvictim was identified as an adult intact male brindle dog. The sheriff’s office said the furvictim was wearing an orange collar which was collected as evidence along with the tether. The dog was taken to Texas A&M where a necropsy was performed, courtesy of the Madisonville-based animal welfare organization Rufus Refuge.

Results showed severe trauma throughout the body. It is believed the furvictim was secured to the guardrail while still alive and subsequently was struck by a vehicle.


If you have any information, please come forward and speak up for the Voiceless Victims. Please, contact the Madison County Sheriff’s Office or Madison County Texas Crime Stoppers at (936) - 348 - 3100. Alternatively, you can submit your tips anonymously to crime stoppers online. Thank you!


I took the liberty of naming the Voiceless Victims Fluffy, Forrest, and Fudge for the tribute image. Should their given names be made public, I will rectify them accordingly.
