Letter To The Editor: Thanks for Continuing Coverage Of Wolf Torture

Dear editor: Thank you for coverage of the wolf torture and killing in Daniel.. Several psychologists have weighed in that it is the behavior of a psychopath and deranged individual- not a "decent man" as Bill Johnson and Rep. Albert Sommers seem to think.

Dear editor,

Thank you for coverage of the wolf torture and killing in Daniel, Wyoming. Several psychologists have weighed in that it is the behavior of a psychopath and deranged individual- not a "decent man" as Bill Johnson and Rep. Albert Sommers seem to think.

In what world does a "decent man" separate a wolf pup from it's pack, run over it, put a muzzle and shock collar on it, take the dying animal home and then to a bar where it laid in its bloody feces and urine, torture it for hours, take it out back and shock it with electric collar over and over and over, then beat it with a baseball bat? Jesus! Finally shooting it.

Even more disturbing was Roberts kissing the dying wolf - very creepy and what serial killers do. His friends and family sat by and watched, laughed, and took videos and photos of the tortured wolf - why?

When the federal law passes making this a felony, Cody Roberts will go to jail for a long time, where he cannot do this again. Karma is a powerful thing...

Thank you also to Tara Miller, Kelly Ravner, Beverly Meyers and so many others who are the really good, decent people in Wyoming who condemn this torture and killing.

As a former Wyomingite, this horrific act sickens me.

Sincerely,

Elizabeth Davidson

Grand Rapids, Michigan
