Judging cruelty: no time for animals
Article Abstract:
The weight of verdicts on animal cruelty cases depends more on the animal's economic value rather than on the severity of the crime. Cruelty to a horse, for instance, is punished twice as hard as that for a similar abuse to a dog. However, positive developments in some parts of the US are noted.
