There was a man who admitted to mistreating Caitlyn the dog in South Carolina in 2015. He was denied a discharge. Thus, he had to complete the remainder of his sentence.
Man sentenced to 5 years in state prison for abuse of Caitlyn, the dog.
William Leonard Dodson, an a 43 years old man, was given a five-year prison sentence in March after pleading guilty to mistreating Caitlyn, the dog, in 2015.
He was denied parole this morning and directed to serve out the remaining period of his sentence in the state prison.
Caitlyn, the dog’s abuser, charged with possession of unrelated drugs and a weapon
Dodson was given credit for the time he spent in jail following his arrest after receiving a 5-year sentence. Despite disappointing animal advocates and Caitlyn’s caregivers, he had also been charged with 15 years federal prison sentence due to unrelated drug and weapon charges a day earlier. Prosecutors then came up with terms that would legally permit him to serve both sentences at once, but they were unsuccessful. The directives required him to finish the five years jail term, then move to the federal prison to serve the remaining 15 years.
Six months before the transfer of the convicted Caitlyn’s abuser to federal imprisonment, he faced a seven-member parole board that firmly denied him parole.
Caitlyn, the dog’s abuser, federal imprisonment
Before being moved to the federal prison, where he will serve the remaining 15 years, Dodson must serve the final six months of his state sentence. Caitlyn is still dealing with the lasting psychological effects of the abuse she suffered at the hands of the imprisoned Dodson, and she finds it difficult to trust some men. Many people ask about Caitlyn’s whereabouts. After suffering horrific abuse, Caitlyn was adopted by the former prosecutor and his wife, where he resides at the moment. The foster family includes children and a dog brother named Oreo. After Caitlyn, the dog was abused, the Charleston Animal Society offered her a lifetime medical care plan. The post updates for Caitlyn, the dog, are routinely posted on Charleston Animal Society’s Facebook page.
