Mom forced kids to abuse animals
Mom ran pet ‘concentration camp,’ son says:
I originally posted about this over at News of Doom. That was before I knew there were children involved but I’m getting ahead of myself.
43-year-old Sharon McDonough of Selden, New York on Long Island was arrested this past week for allegedly swiping her neighbors’ pets, torturing them and burying them in her yard. The abuse of the animals was so bad that the National Geographic show Rescue Ink was called in to rescue the surviving animals.
I thought the story was done there. Until I received an e-mail from reader Caitlin.
The new wrinkle in the story is that she had some of her six daughters help in the abuse.
Let’s hear from her oldest child, 21-year-old Douglas McDonough. He’s also the person who turned her in…
“She would have the oldest kids hold down the dog while we duct-taped his mouth and she would hit him,” he said, adding that he and his sisters were all forced to take part in the abuse.
The six girls, ages 1 1/2-13, were taken from the house.
It’s not bad enough that she committed these atrocities but she just had to get her kids involved. Can you imagine what kind of people they may grow up to be?
