New Mexico: Steven Lawrence Maldonado Beats Fiance, Then Beats Dog to Death

NEW MEXICO -- Any dog owner might expect a four-month-old puppy to occasionally pee on the floor. Since they don’t speak our language, they tend to be a little slow with the potty training. But when Steven Lawrence Maldonado’s new German shepherd peed on the floor, he took it as an act of aggression.

Police were called to his Las Cruces, New Mexico apartment after residents said a woman was screaming. They say Maldonado had been hit and dragged his fiance across the floor. After beating on his wife-to-be, he hit and kicked the dog, then threw it against a wall.


The dog’s injuries were too severe to save it, and Maldonado has been charged with battery and animal cruelty.

Little tip for the bride-to-be: This is probably not the man you want to spend the rest of your life with.
