Andrew David Thompson's attorney says his client will be charged with three additional counts of killing, mutilating, or torturing an animal in east lansing Wednesday morning. This is on top of 11 other counts that the 24-year-old Thompson was already formally charged with.


Prosecutors believe Thompson bought several dogs over the past nine months, took them there, and killed them.

Italian Greyhounds.

It does not say - I've been trying to find it - where he got the dogs from.

I bet he got some of them off of craigslist, the dogs are "cheap" or free and no one asks any questions.

This kid is disturbing and I hope he is having a wonderful time in jail, because I am sure there are dog lovers there who would love to meet this punk.

Thompson's attorney: "He certainly knows that these are serious charges. They could impact his future, his career in medicine."

awww ya don't say? poor young man cant be a doctor anymore because he's incredibly messed up in the head? aww what a shame..... MY ARSE! hope you rot away in your own cruel mind. piece of junk.

"Thompson's attorney George Zulakis would not talk about the specifics of the case, but argues the $100,000 bond is too much. Thompson is still behind bars, unable to come up with the money.

"Each charge is a serious charge, but each carries a maximum of 4 years, and theoretically that's most he could get even if he's found guilty. He certainly knows that these are serious charges. They could impact his future, his career in medicine. And on a more immediate basis, he's currently in jail, and I'm sure he's a frightened young man," Zulakis said."

I dont think his bond is enough! This creep should have to stay in there until the trail!

He should be frightened! I hope his fellow inmates enjoy him! How do you think those poor animals felt when they were being tortured!?!?

If this were my son, I would disown him.

MarleyGSD- you may want to review #16 here: Board Rules

...Not that I don't agree with you. I will say- I found the sentence you quoted interesting, but this one got me more:

And on a more immediate basis, he's currently in jail, and I'm sure he's a frightened young man

I wonder how all those dogs felt coming into his apartment to be tortured and ripped apart. Let him rot in jail. I hope he gets destroyed in jail...

Sorry! Editing now! a quick moment of rage took over my better judgement!

4 years in high school, 4 years in undergrad, and 3 years in med school...too much school and too much stress?

I know all of my aspiring doctor friends are working their butts off on research internships in Germany, volunteer positions at hospitals, and MCAT test preps. They have such ambition, talent, and high stress levels.

Hope schools take note of this and put more emphasis on mental health in the student population.
