A Metro East, Illinois man is accused of yanking the head off of his girlfriend's kitten during an argument.
Madison County prosecutors charged 21-year-old Jacob Thornton of Bethalto with felony animal torture Friday [August 4], a week after he killed his live-in girlfriend's kitten.
During the argument, authorities say, the girlfriend left the apartment with her son but returned to find the headless kitten in the front lawn.
The kitten was eight- to 12-weeks-old.
Thornton's bail was set at $30,000. The charge carries a possible five-year-prison sentence
why would someone do this?
