#1 Sometimes, assigning certain individuals to the group Homo Sapiens is just wrong. I believe there's an entire life category called the slime mold. Perhaps if these assholes repent really, really hard, and pray, they might be allowed up into the slime mold category in their next life.

#2 My fantasy:
Judge to defendants: You have a choice of sentencing: two years in the state penitentiary, or 20 minutes alone with Mr Luttrell, who is allowed to do anything to you he can with his bare hands. Remember that Mr. Luttrell is a former SEAL. Think carefully, gentlemen.

#3 At least with the SEAL it would be relatively quick.

And AFAIAC, there is no such thing as "just another dog", except maybe in the mind of a criminal like this, who needs to have his DNA and fingerprints put on file.

#4 How about 20 minutes alone with Fluffy?

#5 "... It would have been like if Mr. Luttrell had been out on patrol in Afghanistan and one of his men up and shot a woman or a child and Mr. Luttrell was held responsible. Alfonso was not responsible for what Mr. Edmonds did."

Example No. 456789432 illustrating why people have higher opinions of crack whores than lawyers...

#6 I'm surprised that argument by his lawyer didn't work. Heh.

#7 Luttrell is a poster-boy for SEALs, who grew up on a ranch in east Texas. His book is worth the read. Especially interesting is the part where he is hosted by local Afghans until he's rescued.

May the fleas of a thousand dogs infest anybody who shoots a dog!

#8 All in all, I think Marcus Luttrell was restrained when his dog got killed by these four cruel lame brain idiots.

#9 The Men Who Killed A SEAL's Dog, And Laughed

Briefly.

At least, I had hoped that would be the gist of the story. I am disappoint.

“(Alfonso Hernandez) was out hunting rabbits, coons and possums”

At 2am? Hunters, is this usual?

#10 I would have found Luttrell innocent had he shot all of them.

#11 I would find anyone innocent if they shoot any of them. But somehow I think something worse may await them in the Texas Penal System. Where do dog killers stand relative to pederasts?

#12 Sociopaths have been known to start with animal killings and them move on to peeps.

Hopefully they'll keep their names handy when the time comes to round up the usual suspects.

#13 These bad guys should learn. If you get arrested for shooting a dog, you are not cut out for a life of crime. The best you can hope for is that the police catch you before a citizen catches you.

#14 The only people I know who are out at 2am hunting, which only a lawyer could call it with a straight face, have just left the beer joint.

#15 Well, to be fair, there's probably sober poachers somewhere out there.

#16 coon and varmint hunting often takes place at that time of night. i do not buy their story that that is what they were doing, but living in backwoods GA, you do see some varmint hunting at that hour (sometimes even legit). lot of variation in the regulations for such activity from state to state.

These perps are scum and it would have been quite difficult to find a jury to convict the seal if he had killed all 4 on the spot.
