Mutilated Cats Found In Broward
Cat Killings Continue In South Florida

LAUDERHILL -- Dead cats are now showing up in Broward County.

Lauderhill Police reported Wednesday that two dead cats were found in the city in the past week -- one over the weekend, and one Wednesday afternoon in the 4700 block of Northwest 13th Street.

Alyssa Capote told Local 10's Janine Stanwood that her cat was found mutilated in a neighbor's yard.

"All of her back was gone - and then gutted up," Capote told Local 10's Janine Stanwood.

Capote's neighbor, Russell Morris, found the cat.

"It was something rough to see," Morris said.

"In this case, the animal appeared to be cleanly cut up. As far as - almost looked like someone who knew what they were doing," said Lauderhill Police Captain Rick Rocco.

"And when I seen her laying there - it was just like - I couldn't believe it," Capote said.

Her second cat is now missing. Another one of her cats has a slash to the forehead. Capote thinks it is the marking of a botched attack.

In Miami-Dade County, nearly two dozen cats have been found mutilated and killed since early April. The latest attack was reported late Tuesday night in Palmetto Bay.

On Wednesday, police in both counties were looking into the possibility that the killer in all the cases is the same person.

"Our investigators will try to contact their investigators to see if there's any kind of link," Rocco said.

Capote said she just wants justice.

"I hope they pay for it - They better hope I don't catch them," she said.

A $3,500 reward is also being offered for any information leading to an arrest. Members of the community are also coming together to raise more money for that reward.

If you know anything that can help police solve this case, call Crimestoppers: Miami-Dade 305-471-TIPS | Broward: 954-493-TIPS.

phew, thought I was losing my mind (well, I probably STILL am, but not about this at least :lol:)

A junior serial killer.

On the loose in Broward County.

Gee, what are the odds...

JC

I am all for the destruction of cats, but that's a little too much for me.

The problem is really that they say most serial killers start out with animal mutation. that's probably why it's such a big deal.

I like this quote from one of the other articles-

Quote:

An expert said the person who has mutilated and killed at least 18 cats in Cutler Bay and Palmetto Bay is "disturbed."

Great. Glad they took the time to find an expert in stating the obvious :scratch:

I miss South Florida.

When my dad was in high school (this was over 50 years ago) one of his classmates would perform 'operations' on cats to see how long they could live after having an organ removed. He also dropped them off the tops of buildings to see if they would land on their feet... I wish I were kidding!!!!

What I can't figure out is why all this sick shit happens in FL. Does the heat really drive you mad? Is it the water? All the immigrants? I have family in FL(panhandle) and you never hear about this kind of stuff there, it's all usually So FL. I saw the movie Scarface and those were some fucked up motherfuckers.
