A man in Texas was arrested after being caught on video abusing and whipping his dog by a concerned neighbor. It is urged that the district attorney prosecute this case fully when it returns to court.
In June of 2022, Lorenzo Johnson was arrested by the Angelino County Sheriff’s Office after a video of him abusing a dog went viral on social media. Johnson was charged with felony animal cruelty and three dogs were seized from his property.

His bond conditions prevented him from βowningβ or having contact with animals but a judge decided to abate the case for 30 days and returned the dogs on the condition they be vaccinated and receive veterinary attention for any conditions affecting them, after which time they would be evaluated again.
Unfortunately, when they were checked again, another extension was given after the dogs were found to be heartworm positive along with skin conditions.
Johnson finally surrendered two of his dogs, including one who was featured in the video, but still has possession of a male named Big Boy. The court has since postponed the case again for six months until a veterinarian releases an assessment of how he’s doing.
