| Scruffy was a 12 year old Yorkshire Terrier, whose life began and ended with abuse. As a puppy, Scruffy was abused and shuffled from home to home. After a period of time, he went to live with a caring family, the Whitmire's of Kansas City, Kansas June 27, 1997 was the day Scruffy is alleged to have met with Jose Gutierrez - age 17, Marcus Rodriguez - age 18, Richard Golubski - age 20 and Lance Arsenalt - age 21. This is the day Scruff's nightmare began and eventually ended with his murder. Jose, Marcus, Richard and Lance were neighbors of the Whitmire's granddaughter, so Scruffy was familiar with these men, and did not have any fear of them. The following is the story of how those four young men allegedly decided to spend that summer afternoon. |

| When an abused kitten was brought to Pasado�s Safe Haven of Snohomish County in February 2001, the animal protection agency's staff members were not prepared for what they saw. Angel�s anus had been ruptured, she had suffered internal injuries and neurological damage, and her tail was badly broken. Emergency surgery was necessary to treat the colon and rectal cavity, and her tail had to be amputated to prevent gangrene. |

| "With an open hand, I hit him on the side of his chest trying to get him to lay down.... adding that the dog had a broken back, was in pain and was unable to lay down to receive treatment. I hit him right by the front legs, as soon as I did, it stopped crying." (Quoted by Dr. Steven Ginsberg) |
| Beaten with a board containing nails,almost pulled in half,stomped on,and finally ran over with a car by four youths, Angel lay dead and discarted as you would with yesterdays trash. One teen girl retells the story through tears as it was told by the four boys who bragged about the event. |
