OBASI LENNOX MADER

THUG FRACTURED DOGS' SKULLS AND STRANGLED THEM IN MONSTROUS CAMPAIGN OF ABUSE

A North Londoner strangled his dogs, leaving them with fractured skulls, spinal damage, broken teeth, swelling to the eyes, as well as other wounds.

Dog-beater Obasi Lennox Mader, 35, of Sussex Way, Islington, was convicted of four animal offences including trying to strangle a Staffie named Sage who also had a broken metacarpal bone, spinal damage, broken teeth, a wound on her upper lip and swelling to her head, neck and eyes.

She has since had to be put down.

The RSPCA arriving at Mader’s home, members of the public had called in to report allegations of dog beatings.

Mader was aggressive and uncooperative, and both dogs cowered on the floor when he opened the door, lying away from him.

Investigators noted they were both terrified of him.

He was sentenced to five years animal ban (of which three years remain), 20 weeks of imprisonment suspended for 18 months, and ordered to complete 10 Rehabilitation Activity Requirement days.

The RSPCA inspector emphasized the cruelty involved and appreciated the witnesses who reported the concerns, stating they are crucial in seeking justice for animals.
