North Oakland rabbit killings

by Rich Sievers
The following article, updating the North Oakland rabbit killings case, appears in today's Oakland (California) Tribune.
http://www.insidebayarea.com/portlet/article/html/fragments/print_article.jsp?article=2735054

As you can see, the Deputy District Attorney assigned to this case has decided to charge the 13 year old neighbor boy who brutally killed "Irving" and "Benito," with misdemeanor animal cruelty.

Please write to the DDA and thank him for taking this matter seriously. The contact info appears below.

When you write, you might also politely ask him to consider trying this case as a felony instead of a misdemeanor, given the intent and viciousness of the boy's actions.

For background on this case, click here.

Please send your letter to:

Alameda County Deputy District Attorney Walter Jackson
400 Broadway
Oakland, CA 94607

FAX: (510) 268 - 2067

Re: Case #05 - 015454 (North Oakland rabbit killings)

In the interest of time, it is highly recommended that you FAX your letter instead of mailing it.

Also, please FAX a copy of it to:

Alameda County District Attorney Tom Orloff
1225 Fallon Street - Room 900
Oakland, CA 94614

FAX: (510) 271 - 5157

I'll post more information as it becomes available.
