What sort of person does this to a puppy?

Two teenagers accused of duct-taping a puppy's snout and paws and cooking the animal alive in an oven pleaded guilty Friday to animal cruelty and other offenses.

Prosecutors said Joshua Moulder, 17, and his brother, Justin, 19, broke into a newly refurbished community center, where they tortured and killed the 3-month-old puppy, damaged computers, broke glass and splattered paint on the walls.

The brothers then brought neighborhood children to see the dead puppy and threatened to kill them if they reported it, prosecutors said.

They will be sentenced next month.

Give them the max -- to be served consecutively.

Then publish the date, time, and location of their release on the internet.

And to all folks with an ounce of decency and even a sliver of a soul, never forget those names -- Joshua Moulder and Justin Moulder. May they be shunned from human society in perpetuity.

UPDATE: I received the following email tonight, with information related to this crime.

I run a blog on the case about the Atlanta "baked puppy" case that you posted about yesterday. I was wondering if you would consider putting up the address of the District Attorney so that people can mail letters supporting the maximum sentence for these criminals. Letters will go the judge (they should be addressed to Judge Thelma Wyatt Moore) but should be sent to:

Assistant DA Laura Janssen
Office of the Fulton County DA
136 Pryor Street, SW--Third Floor
Atlanta, GA 30303

We're just desperate to have people write letters as soon as possible because the sentencing is scheduled for February 9th--not a lot of time. Also, we have composed a form letter so people don't even need to write their own. It can be downloaded here: http://media6.filewind.com/g.php?filepath=5526.

I urge folks to act appropriately. To learn more about the case, you can visit the blog referenced above.
