FORT BEND COUNTY, Texas - A Fort Bend County boy and his mother are receiving death threats after a video was shared of him roughing up his German Shepherd.
The 10-year-old is seen hitting, choking, and pinning the dog against a wall.
"The video is hard to watch. You're going to have a gut reaction," said Precinct 3 Constable Wayne Thompson. "It's not going to be nice, it's disturbing."
Thompson doesn't hide his love for animals and will not tolerate animal cruelty.
He's the only Fort Bend County Constable with an animal cruelty investigator.
"We've had phone calls all day since Friday," Thompson said. "There's petitions with over 16,000 names. People have called from Canada, London, and from all over the United States."
