March 2017 - Wisconsin: After hearing, judge rules career criminal Andrew Collette will face trial after being accused of beating Pepe the Papillon to death

WISCONSIN -- A Columbia County judge on Thursday ruled there was enough evidence against a Portage man accused of beating a family dog to the brink of death to warrant a trial.

The man’s attorney argued that no one really knows what happened to the dog.

Andrew Collette (Andy Collette), 38, sat at the defense table as a Portage police officer testified about interviews with the dog’s owners, a Lodi veterinarian and Collette himself about the events surrounding a dog being crippled and euthanized in February.

Sgt. Michael Schutz described the condition of the 9-pound papillon spaniel at the end of its life, according to the Lodi veterinarian who originally called law enforcement to report suspected abuse. The dog suffered multiple hip fractures, a broken pelvis, a collapsed lung and likely brain damage as the pupils of the dog’s eyes were different sizes at the time.

The dog’s owners — Eric and Brandy Rose, who attended the hearing — said that they had known Collette and his then-girlfriend well, having lived across the street from them for more than a year.

On Feb. 18, Collette was helping to set up the family’s TV surround-sound system, when, according to court documents, he asked Brandy Rose to get him some tools from Walmart to finish the job. She and a friend went to the store and later her husband took the kids and went to the park, leaving Collette alone with their two dogs.

“Upon returning home, she stated that things were not normal,” Schutz said of Brandy Rose’s statement to police. “Normally when she would come through the door, both dogs would come running up to her and she stated that only one of the dogs ran up to her.”

When she asked Collette what had happened, Collette reportedly told her that the missing dog, Pepe, had jumped through the window, but didn’t know where it was.

After a search of the house, Collette found Pepe under a bed.

How interesting that he "found" him. They say that murderers often help with the search of the missing person and then conveniently "find" the victim's body, ensuring that their fingerprints, DNA, etc. is found at the scene in an "innocent way". 

Proceedings were occasionally paused as defense attorney Roger Klopp objected to questions on the basis of Schutz’s testimony being hearsay, or hearsay of hearsay, such as Schutz’s explanation that no one was in the house at the time of the dog’s injury except Collette.

“If you bring witnesses that say someone else was there, then I’ll consider it,” said Judge Alan J. White, “because hearsay is admissible in preliminary hearings.”

“At some point did you speak with Andrew Collette?” Assistant District Attorney Crystal Long asked Schutz.

“Yes I did,” he replied, going on to say that Collette “indicated that no one else was with him,” and that when asked about the condition of the dog, Collette said he was working on the electronics and the dog had run over, “prancing” with its paws on the window and that as Collette looked away, the glass broke and he then saw the dog running away.

“So he told you that the dog ran away,” asked Long.

“Correct,” said Schutz, who in response to questions about Brandy Rose taking the dog to the veterinarian, told the court that the veterinarian reported that the dog was unable to stand.

Klopp asked Schutz when it was that the owners last saw the dog, to which Schutz was not able to say.

“So when she left the house, you don’t know if the dog was injured or not, do you?” asked Klopp.

“Correct,” Schutz answered.

When asked the same about Eric Rose leaving with the children, Schutz said the dog was last seen, “prior to him leaving,” but without an exact time.

“So you don’t know if the dog was injured at the time that Mr. Rose left the house either,” said Klopp.

“Correct,” said Schutz.

“So no one saw the dog being injured,” said Klopp.

“Besides the comment about the dog prancing on the window,” said Schutz.

Klopp asked if the veterinarian had seen what happened or if she knew how high the window in question was from the ground, to which Schutz said the general layout of the house was known, including that, “the dog was supposed to have gone out of a first-story window.”

At the conclusion of testimony, White ordered Collette, who has been in custody on a probation hold, to be bound over for trial, with arraignment scheduled for April 2.

The Roses watched as Collette was escorted from the courtroom following the hearing.

“We want to be as involved as we can because I don’t know if that lawyer was a good one or a bad one,” said Eric Rose, “but all the questions he was insinuating, that’s the farthest thing from the truth and we don’t want any of that stuff to be considered for him to get off or anything.”

“I can barely go anywhere and the kids are upset,” said Brandy Rose, shaking as she wiped away tears with a tissue, “and he’s already been convicted of felonies before and he’s a dangerous person.”

ANDREW COLLETTE: CAREER CRIMINAL  AND SEX OFFENDER

In 2011, Collette entered a no-contest plea to counts of fourth-degree sexual assault and felony bail jumping, while in 2010 he entered a no-contest plea for violation of a sex offender registry and at the same time entered a no-contest plea to substantial battery.

June 25, 2010 article: "Andrew Collette, a registered sex offender, accused of badgering 16-year-old girl for sex"

“When they say that the kids were being rambunctious, they were just being kids and he yelled and screamed and hollered at my son and told my daughter to shut up, so the judge didn’t hear the real part of that,” said Eric Rose. “That’s why I left.”

He said there was a broken window in the house, but that there was no way Pepe could have been injured in a fall, given that it was a double-pane window with a screen and that only one pane had been broken.

If convicted of the single count of felony mistreatment of an animal, Collette faces up to three and a half years in prison.

Oklahoma: Cecille Short, 82, and her small Papillon named Taylor are both attacked and mauled to death by two Pit Bulls

OKLAHOMA -- Family of a woman mauled by two dogs on Oklahoma City’s far northwest side Thursday afternoon says she was a loving woman who relished the neighborhood she lived in.

Police say Cecille Short, 82, was attacked by two large pit-bull type dogs shortly before 2 p.m.

When police got to the scene, they could not get to Short quickly enough. She was pronounced dead at the scene. Her beloved Papillon named Taylor was also mauled to death by the Pit Bulls.

Police shot one dog dead; the other was also shot, run over by a police squad car and then captured at the owner's home the next block over. It is recovering and in custody with Oklahoma City Animal Welfare.

 

“The investigation is still in the very early stages," said Oklahoma City Police Department spokesman Master Sgt. Gary Knight. "It’s simply too early to speculate what’s going to happen from here. The homicide unit is working it because it did involve a death.”

Knight says its too early to say if the owner will face any charges. As of Friday morning, investigators were still waiting to talk with him as he told them he wasn't home.

“They haven’t had a chance to interview him yet, because he indicated he was out of town," Knight said.

However, in the video clip (below), reporters found a man at the home who quickly closed his garage door when they approached. He's home and is just avoiding the police until he gets an attorney. 

Homicide detectives are investigating because it involves a death.

“These types of cases are so rare, where a dog mauls somebody to death. It’s an extremely rare event," he said.

A memorial of flowers and crucifixes growing near the corner of Willow Creek Blvd. and Windmill Rd. where Short was attacked, mere steps from her own home.

"We want people to know that everybody in the neighborhood knew her," said Short's daughter, Melinda Clonts. "She saw so many kids grow up."

Clonts says her mother was extremely active for her age, surprising her own family, with Resurrection Free Methodist, hosting Bible studies at her home, volunteering with Southern Plaza Retirement Village and -- in her free time -- taking a civics class.

The mother of two, grandmother of five and great-grandmother of four -- with another on the way -- doted over her dog, a Papillon named Taylor, her daughter said.

It was during a walk with her dog that Short was attacked; her dog was also killed.

People who were at the home where the two dogs in the attack lived, one block to the east of where the attack happened, did not want to talk. A visible hole is in the fence on the south side of the house.

This is not the first time the dogs have run afoul of animal welfare officers.

"We do have a small history with these two dogs," said John Gary, Oklahoma City Animal Welfare Superintendent during a press conference Friday morning.

"But we're still in the process of researching that, so I don't know the exact number. I do know that we have received calls in that neighborhood for these two dogs."

Neighbors say it wasn't uncommon for the dogs to be out of the yard.

"They were out fairly often. Sometimes I wouldn't see them out for days on end -- maybe two or three weeks. Then they'd be out," said neighbor Mike Elder, who says his wife was knocked down by one of the dogs once before.

Elder says the roughly 100-pound dog wasn't attacking, but excited and easily bowled over his equally as heavy wife.

"They weren't being malicious, but the size of the dogs is the problem," he said.

One neighbor even circulated a letter late last year, warning neighbors to call police if they saw the dogs on the loose.

"Just a very sad situation that could have been resolved with better actions by these people, of keeping their dogs inside," he said.

Wisconsin: Andrew Collette was supposed to install some speakers at their house. Instead, say police, he beat their little dog to death

WISCONSIN -- A Portage man has been charged with felony mistreatment of animals, accused of crippling his neighbors’ dog and causing injuries that required the animal to be euthanized.

Andrew Collette, 38, who has been held in the Columbia County Jail since Feb. 18, was charged with the single felony count on Thursday, an offense that if he is convicted could result in up to 3 1/2 years in prison.

The case started with a call from a Lodi veterinarian who told officers that she had been treating an 8 ½ pound Papillon mix who had to be put down after suffering what appeared to be extensive blunt-force trauma.

The dog’s owner told officers that earlier that day she had been home, where her neighbor, Collette, had been working on a set of speakers for her and her husband. Collette had told her that he needed some extra tools, so she and a friend went to the store to get him what he needed.

Her husband and their two kids, 5 and 6 years old, were in the house but after the kids had been loud and irritating Collette, who allegedly yelled at them at one point, the father took the kids to play at the park.

When the two women returned home with supplies, there was something noticeably wrong, according to the owner, saying that Pepe would normally run to greet her at the door.

Collette reportedly said something about the dog going out the window.

She began searching the house when, she told police, Collette yelled that he had found the dog, underneath a bed in her daughter's bedroom.

The two women ran upstairs from the basement and saw Pepe under a bed with a bloody eye and not acting right.

"Her eye was bulged out and she didn't even acknowledge me. There was nothing."

The owner’s friend moved the dog and told officers she “felt like a bag of bones.”

Rose took Pepe to a veterinarian, who was forced to put him down due to substantial injuries, including a fractured pelvis, head trauma and a deflated lung, she said.

When the officer asked Collette what happened, he said that Pepe had been jumping up and down putting her feet against the window, when he heard glass break and saw the dog run out of the room.

The veterinarian told officers that the dog’s injuries did not match with what would be expected from a severe fall, and there were no cuts or glass fragments found to suggest the incident involved broken glass.

Officers spoke with Collette’s then-girlfriend about the incident, who said Collette had told her that the dog had jumped through the window, which she didn’t believe. She told officers that she is “an animal rescue person,” and had yelled at Collette for hitting a cat.

Portage police took Collette into custody that evening on suspicion of violation of probation and mistreatment of an animal.

ANDREW COLLETTE: CAREER CRIMINAL

Collette was released from Columbia Correctional Institution on June 2, 2015. This was the most recent stint in jail or prison, with others including Racing Correctional Institution, Waupun Correctional Institution and Wisconsin Secure Program Facility in Boscobel.

According to online court records Collette’s first felony convictions were in 1996 for arson and battery by a prisoner.

In 2005 he would again be convicted of battery by prisoners and expelling a bodily substance, then in 2009 convicted of substantial battery for head butting someone at a bar and in a parallel case, fourth-degree sexual assault.

COLLETTE WAS ON PROBATION AT THE TIME HE'S ACCUSED OF KILLING PEPE BY BEATING HIM TO DEATH

At the time of his arrest, Collette was under extended supervision with a discharge date of June 7, 2020.

New bond conditions and future hearing dates are pending an initial appearance with a Columbia County Circuit Court judge.

They need to do a necropsy on Pepe to see if Collette raped him before beating him to death. They say that Robert Farmer guy in California was raping the cats before torturing them to death.

Michigan: "Ripped out his kidney, ripped out his stomach, ripped out his intestines" says woman of her beloved Papillon which was torn apart by a loose pit bull

MICHIGAN -- A neighborhood in Southgate is on the lookout for a white pit bull after the dog attacked a woman and killed her dog. The concern is high as the attack happened right next to Fordline Elementary School.

Diane Peters was walking her dog, Scooter, Sunday afternoon as she had been doing for the last six years. When Peters turned a corner, she said a white pit bull almost immediately charged at her.

 

"He knocked me down, and bit my arm and my face and he just took my dog right out of my arms." she said.

A neighbor nearby ran to the rescue and kicked the dog off Peters.

"I knew once I saw this happening I had to do something about it. I mean, I thought, my kids are seeing this, so it was a moment of how am I going to stop this from happening and I ran out there and did my best." said Ron Brewer, the rescuing neighbor.

The vicious dog ran away after being kicked by Brewer, and Peters was taken to urgent care. Peters’ 6-year-old Papillon, named Scooter, was taken to the animal hospital, but it was too late for the little dog, who was suffering and in great pain.

"Ripped out the kidney, ripped out the stomach, ripped out the intestine. They couldn't save him. The damage was too great." said Peters. "I have five grandkids and they're devastated."

Brewer and the rest of the neighborhood are on high alert until the pit bull is caught. Animal Control has followed some leads, but has yet to find the vicious animal.

Brewer went to thank her neighbors who she hadn't previously met.

Montana: Nearly 130 dogs removed from Larry Latzke and Nadine Latzke LDR kennels as part of criminal court plea agreement

MONTANA -- More than 100 dogs are on their way to new homes after Lake County sheriff's deputies and animal rescue groups took them from a puppy mill in the Mission Valley.

"This is the best day of my life. I got the call, I got a little nauseous and then I got to work," said Lynette Duford of Life Savers Animal Rescue.

 

 

It was a day Duford had waited for. Car after car pulled into the driveway of LDR Kennels north of Saint Ignatius Friday afternoon, bringing crates to take more than 100 dogs away.

Larry and Nadine Latzke lost ownership of the dogs in deal with Lake County prosecutors after the couple was charged with aggravated animal cruelty back in July.

The case began when a judge granted a search warrant for LDR kennels. Sheriff's deputies took 11 dogs away -- those with extremely matted fur, rotten teeth and or bad skin conditions..

 

 

Most had never touched the ground, living the lives in small, crowded wire cages. All but four of those dogs were returned to the Latzkes. But on Friday, they were all leaving.

"A long drawn out prosecution would have taken a considerable amount of time, so with the resources in mind, this was the quickest resolution to the matter," said Lake County Undersheriff Ben Woods.

The Sheriff's Office  says most of the dogs are chipped so that will be used as animal teams catalog them, identify their breed and get them vet care before the next step of adoption.

"They are very stressed right now; it's a stressful situation even though we are in there getting them out so we're trying to be conscious of that and go slow," Duford said.

“These are not healthy dogs by any stretch of the imagination. They’re sick, they have skin infections, they have poor nutrition and they are stressed,” said Duford, “I don’t know if they’re vaccinated because he refused to show us any records.”

Because the dogs have no vaccination records, Life Savers is treating them as if they have never been vaccinated.

Duford said they have rotten teeth, paws that are sensitive from being forced to stand on chicken wire their entire life, low muscle tone, and skin conditions. Some females have mammary tumors and a number of dogs are currently pregnant.

“The challenge that we are having right now, is we put little bowls of water in for them and they just dump them. They’ve never had a bowl of water, they don’t know how to drink out of the bowl of water, they are only used to the little rabbit water feeders that hang n the cage because they all had automatic water-ers at the kennels,” said Duford, “So now we’re scrambling to find the little rabbit water feeders so that they can do what they know and what they’re used to and make sure they stay hydrated.”

The dogs have never had a bed and when given on for the first time, had no idea what to do with it. Many of the dogs chose to sleep on the ground next to their beds because it is what they are used to.

The Latzke's are allowed to keep six personal dogs but must have them spayed and neutered. It's part of a 10 year agreement with prosecutors who will dismissed the charges against them if they comply.

The dogs are heading to four different locations -- in Polson, Missoula and Bigfork.

We will let you know more about the adoption process once that's figured out. Life Savers Animal Rescue says it could use donations to care for the more than 100 dogs. Click here to help out.

Montana: Larry Latzke, Nadine Latzke agree to 10 years probation, will surrender all their puppy mill dogs and puppies

MONTANA -- The Lake County Sheriff's Office announced Friday it is removing around 130 dogs from a Charlo breeder after prosecutors reached an agreement regarding the charges filed against the owners.

 

The Lake County Attorney’s Office's deal with Nadine and Larry Latzke will defer prosecution against them for a decade. The Latzkes faced felony aggravated cruelty to animals charges after dogs were seized from their property in late July.

 

Under the agreement, the Latzkes relinquished custody of the around 130 dogs they own to Lifesavers Animal Rescue or the Lake County Sheriff’s Office.

 

They will be allowed to keep six dogs that were living at their house, but must spay or neuter each of those animals within the next two months. They are prohibited from owning any other dogs during the 10-year deferral period. They cannot replace any dog that dies during that time.

The agreement will dismiss the felony charges, but prosecutors will be able to refile the case if the terms are violated.

The Lake County Sheriff’s Office said in a news release Friday that they are in the process of taking the rest of the dogs from the Latzke’s LDR Kennels.

On July 26, law enforcement seized 11 of the dogs that were at the kennel, located between Charlo and St. Ignatius on Dublin Gulch Road, after receiving a complaint about their treatment.

 

 

The person who filed the complaint reported “a terrible smell coming from the kennel and that they had seen one dog with its hair matted and smelled like urine, and the dog did not look in good health,” according to Sheriff Don Bell.

Montana: Puppy mill owners Larry and Nadine Latzke of LDR Kennels appear in court amid demonstrators

MONTANA -- A couple, both charged with felony aggravated animal cruelty, made their first appearance in Lake County Justice Court Wednesday amid a throng of people demonstrating against puppy mills.

Larry August Latzke, 74, and Nadene Marie Latzke, 71, held hands and sat tersely awaiting Justice of the Peace Randal Owens as the small courtroom filled with demonstrators holding posters and talking among themselves.

Owens explained the charge against the two, which has a maximum punishment of two years in the Department of Corrections, $2,500 fine and possible restitution if applicable. They both requested attorneys be appointed. A trial date will be set for the couple to enter a plea in district court, which should be in about a month, according to Owens.

 

 

 

 

Outside the courthouse more than 40 demonstrators waited for the couple to exit, shouting “no more puppy mills” and saying the couple should be ashamed of themselves.

According to court documents, on May 3 a woman called Lake County Sheriff’s Department to report a possible incidence of animal abuse or neglect. The woman had recently purchased a puppy from Larry Latzke at his St. Ignatius home on Dublin Gulch Road. She said the puppy was in very poor condition; its claws had not been trimmed, its fur was matted, and it did not know how to eat on its own.

Research showed six other complaints dating back to 2008 had been filed regarding the animals at this property, known as LDR Kennels. A search warrant was applied for and granted.

On July 26, Lake County Sheriff’s Deputies executed the search warrant at the home of Latzke and his wife, Nadine. Larry asked to accompany the deputy during his search, but when Larry began to interfere with the search by cleaning up feces, he was told to return to the porch.

 

The deputy discovered a garage with multiple piles of feces and smelled “overwhelmingly like urine.” Outdoor kennels attached to the garage held numerous older dogs that had matted fur and smelled like feces and urine.

One of three shed-like structures was empty, but the other two had wire cages attached to the outside. Inside the cages were 96 small-breed dogs. Most had matted fur caked with feces and urine. All of the cages were covered in feces and urine. Many of the cages contained one to three dogs. The wire cages did not allow a solid surface for the dogs to stand on or a soft area to rest. Some of the dogs ran in circles constantly — a behavior pattern created by minimal outdoor exercise, according to court documents.

During the search, the deputy saw Larry drop a pill into one of the dog’s cages. The pill dropped into a catch pan full of feces and urine, and the deputy saw Larry retrieve the pill and feed it to the dog.

Some of the dogs' ankle hair was soaked and had a green tint to it. One building had a back room covered in “an inch or so” of green slime, court documents stated.

 

Nadine told the deputy she was in poor health, and could not take as much care of the dogs as normal, but that Larry had been keeping up with trimming the nails of two dogs per day. She said she provided food and water, and she treated the dogs with health concerns. She said she had 30 breeding dogs but would have to check her files to find the actual number of dogs. Larry became upset when asked about the number of dogs housed there, saying it was personal information, according to court documents.

The decision was made to only document and seize 11 dogs that appeared to need immediate medical attention. During the process, some of the dogs had difficulty walking on the ground.

The 11 dogs were sent to a local veterinarian. The veterinarian outlined the health issues of each dog.

One Chihuahua was so dehydrated the vet said it would have died without medical intervention. 

"I believe it's torture to have a dog that is so 
severely matted, you can't see its eyes,"
Hinshaw-Duford said. "You can't tell if it's a male
or a female. Their teeth were so rotten that you
 couldn't tell the age of the dogs."

One pregnant Pomeranian did not appear to have health issues.

The others suffered from a variety of issues such as poor or no teeth, small sores on feet, a mammary gland tumor, missing fur and fur covered in feces and urine.

Another doctor that was at the scene during the search concluded that even if the cages the dogs were confined were meticulously cleaned to remove feces and urine, “their design, size, and current use does not provide adequate room and even the most minimum of comforts for dogs.”

 

Larry and Nadene Latzke consider this
 "chicken coop" to be "state of the art"
for dog breeding

Montana’s laws don’t restrict puppy mills nor outline care breeding dogs require. House Bills regarding puppy mill laws have been presented in the 2013 and 2015 legislative sessions, but have not passed for a number of reasons.

In 2013 House District 51 Representative Mary MacDonald introduced HB 439, the “Montana Commercial Pet Protection Act” to the Agricultural Committee. The bill would have ensured that commercial pets bred, sold or made available for adoption in Montana are healthy. The bill included inspections of dog breeding facilities and outlined standards of care for feeding and watering while collecting fees from breeders to offset inspections.

RIP Penny Bear - puppy mill dog

“The ag committee was very leery of the regulations,” MacDonald said. The bill failed. MacDonald reintroduced it again in 2015 as HB 608, this time in the Department of Labor and Industry oversight committee. Again, it failed.

“It got into the committee very late,” MacDonald said. “There wasn’t enough time to absorb this new concept. It’s a good bill, it really is.”

Representative Dan Salomon remembers the bill and understood what it was trying to do to protect animals, but “there were issues and questions that needed answers we didn’t have.”

Such as???

Yet he supports the concept.

“I’d definitely like to see a bill like this have an opportunity to work better ... so these issues can be dealt with in a more expedient manner,” Salomon said, referring to the search warrant executed on the local puppy mill. “Right now, it isn’t perfect.”

Salomon said it is not uncommon for a bill to take a few sessions of revamping before it is passed.
