A 49-year-old Texas man has been accused of eating his dog alive. Shelby County Texas District Attorney Linda Key Russell is preparing to prosecute what she says is the strangest animal cruelty case she has ever encountered. Reggie Paul Fountain stands accused of eating his pit bull puppy alive in the case. "He chewed that and ate it, he had blood all over his face, he had blood on his chest, he was in his underwear walking down the street talking to himself and the dog," says Russell.

When Fountain was confronted by police, he had to be restrained so the dog could be removed from his hands. The puppy was taken to veterinarian Robert Hughes who said it looked like the dog had been in a fight when it arrived at his clinic. "We anesthetized the dog and we surgically evened out the edges. We did something similar to an ear crop," says Doctor Hughes.

Russell said she will prosecute the case to the fullest extent. "This is actually called torture to an animal, and that is why we are doing it. His excuse, which I don't care what his excuse was, was that he was on PCP and cocaine," says Russell.

"I will not offer this man probation. I will take it to a jury trial and if the citizens of Shelby County want to give him probation they can, but I will not offer that," says Russell.

give me 5 minutes alone with this guy. 5 minutes. that's all i want.

WHAT IN THE FUCK.......EH......WHAT? WHAT IN THE HELL IS WRONG WITH PEOPLE.....

LOL not to go off topic here but... when you said that, that reminded me of the story of how "5 Minutes Alone" by Pantera was written lol. Apparantly what had happened was that there was a guy in the front row of a Pantera gig in San Diego who was heckling Phil. Phil finally had enough, so he incited the crowd to jump this guy. After getting his ass beat, the guy sued them. Then his dad called Pantera's manager and his exact quote was, "You just give me five minutes alone with that Phil Anselmo guy and I'll show him who's big daddy around here." Phil's response was "You just give me five minutes with that cat's dad and I'll whoop his ass." And that's where that song title came from. Neat eh

thats really fucking twisted

i dunno dude, it would of been funny if it was a person too. theres no descrimination, i just think random fucked up shit is funny. like if a person in a wheel chair got hit by a truck for example.

That info can be found in in the cd booklet for the Best of Pantera "Far Beyond The Great Southern Cowboys Vulgar Hits" greatest hits album. I'm sure you can also read about that on the net as well.
