BREAKING NEWS: No immediate charges in alleged dog beating
Just got word from the District Attorney's Office that charges were not immediately filed against a Hawthorne man arrested on Monday on suspicion of beating and hanging his dog.
The case was sent back for more investigation. Notably, the DA needs a full report on the dog's medical condition.
"We're waiting for the documentation of the injuries, if any, sustained by the victim animal," Deputy District Attorney Amy-Hannah Broersma said.
This does not mean that Ricardo Salvador Plascenia won't face charges. He could at a later time when the reports are done.
It does mean, he gets to go home from jail sometime today.

that is ridiculous he should be in jail somebody should hang him on a chain and beat him....
I hope the poor dog does not have to go back to this digusting creature .
Disgusting. A witness to the crime, along with a video, and it's still not enough to file charges? What the heck is it going to take?
