Re: Steven S. Croley – High Caliber K9
Honorable Judge Robert A. Douglas, Jr.:

I am writing from (your city and state) and I have heard about the aforementioned case through multiple media sources.

I am urging you to help convict Steven S. Croley on the 19 counts of animal cruelty charges; therefore holding him accountable for his actions and convicting him to the fullest extent of the law.

I strongly believe that the Humane Agents acted in the scope of the law and that no 4th Amendment rights were violated. The Agents witnessed the animals in clear, imminent danger. These initial observations constituted “a lawful, non-search plain view situation”. Thus supporting a finding of probable cause to suspect that the crime of cruelty to animals was being committed and that they acted promptly and appropriately.

Moreover, I will not be content until other criminal charges have been filed against Steven S Croley, e.g. for services not rendered.

I am a hard-working, tax paying, law abiding voter of this great state of (your state) and I will be fighting to see Steven S. Croley charged and convicted of the murders he committed.

This issue is obviously very important to me. Needless to say, as a voter in Ohio I will not forget the way that this crime has been handled. (DELETE PARAGRAPH IF YOU ARE NOT FROM VOTING DISTRICT)

This issue is obviously very important to me. Needless to say, your actions in this case will greatly affect my view on you, your city and your great state of Ohio. (DELETE PARAGRAPH IF YOU ARE OUT OF THE STATE OF OHIO)

We must recognize that dogs are living, breathing and tangible ‘property’ and it is our responsibility as decent human beings to protect them as we would protect our very own children.

Sincerely,
