Ive talked to county and state officials on this all day long. All agree that theres nothing in state or county law, as it is right now, thahaprohibits that owner from shooting his dog. 19 days. Thats how long it was between the time this boxer, later named amara, was shot, and the time in which she was picked up as a stray in townville. Anderson county investigators say the owner shot amara after the owner says she became increasingly aggressive. State law talks about shooting an animal, how it should only be done in emergency situations. However, its only talking about how animal shelters can and cannot kill an animal, not owners. Campbell says there are no laws in the state of South Carolina that would make this a crime. Campbell says, animals are considered property of the owner, and as such, there are no criminal laws that prohibit an owner from euthanizung their own euthanizing their own animal. This could could be considered as ill treatment of an animal under sc code of law. However, in this case, the magistrate judge found there was a lack of evidence to issue a warrant, based on the facts presented by law enforcement. Mary frances cole is the magistrate consulted about amara. In a statement today, she told us she couldnt talk about specific cases, but said the court does not conduct investigations. Investigators present their findings to the court. She also says, if the court finds that probable cause does not exist that a crime has been committed by a specific individual, based on the evidence presented by law enforcement, the court is prohibited by law from issuing an arrest warrant.
