| Red Rose Database
Redhill Animal Abuser
In a deeply disturbing case that has shocked the community of Redhill, Samuel Paul Healey, born on August 12, 1987, and residing at Graham House, Timperley Gardens, was found guilty of subjecting a young female mastiff to relentless physical abuse, which ultimately led to her tragic death.
According to reports, Healey repeatedly punched and kicked the two-and-a-half-year-old dog, affectionately named Puppy, inflicting severe blunt force trauma. The injuries sustained by Puppy were so severe that veterinary professionals had no choice but to euthanize her to prevent further suffering. The post-mortem examination revealed extensive internal and external injuries caused by the violent assaults, with the vet confirming that Puppy endured significant pain and distress before her death.
Following the sentencing, RSPCA Inspector Robert Jackson described the case as profoundly distressing. He stated, “This was a hugely distressing case. A post-mortem showed Puppy suffered extensive injuries caused by blunt trauma used with considerable force. The vet said this caused extensive suffering. Puppy did not die quickly.”
Jackson further explained that Healey admitted to having anger issues, claiming he was in a rage and feeling very frustrated at the time of the attack. Despite his remorse and acknowledgment of his behavior, the damage was done, and the case highlighted the importance of animal welfare and the consequences of abuse.
Healey was sentenced to 12 weeks in prison, though this sentence was suspended for two years. Additionally, he was ordered to complete 100 hours of unpaid community work and pay costs amounting to £500. Importantly, he was also banned from keeping any animals for a period of ten years, a restriction that will remain in effect until January 2025. The case has sparked outrage among local residents and animal rights advocates, emphasizing the need for strict enforcement of animal protection laws in the Redhill area.
