Thanks to Judge Calloway and our State of New Jersey SPCA officers, innocent defenseless animals will no longer be allowed to suffer at the hands of Mr. Cruz. In my opinion however, the Judge was too lenient and Mr. Cruz should have been sentenced to time behind bars. Three meals per day, medical care and a sanitary environment to live in....more than he provided for his animals.
Thank God for judges like this that take animal abuse seriously. Many predators of children start with animal torture and then go on to hurt others. Animal abuse and neglect is serious. Denying medical care to an animal is a crime. This man had over 20 animals starving on his property. He was a lunatic and should have gone to jail. The judge was actually far too lenient.
I hope he rots in jail... any person who could hurt an innocent animal or child does not deserve to live. he doesn't deserve anything if he cannot take care of the property he owns. Word of advice, IF YOU CANNOT TAKE PROPERLY CARE OF A LIFE FORM, DON'T HAVE THEM. If you do the simplest task of taking care of another creature that is under your ownership, you don't deserve to own anything. I wish someone would do to these people that they do to others. IF YOU CAN'T TAKE CARE OF THEM, GIVE THEM TO SOMEONE YOU WILL, COWARD. This goes to all animal abusers and child abusers

Thank you, Judge Calloway, for taking a case such as this seriously and issuing an apt punishment.

This is tragic. Spay, neuter, and be good to animals. http://www.freewebs.com/howtohelpanimals

"Is this not a free country anymore? What law gives a Judge the right to deny one the right to own property? "
What are you smoking?

It's ridiculous that this ever even had to be addressed.
Don't own animals if you can't take care of them.
