As disgusting and distasteful as the film would have been to watch( I could only watch the edited version.), I’m glad people were able to use this fuckwit’s need to show off his perverse pleasures, to actually track them down. Even if the accused didn’t leave a direct internet link to his identity, features of the boy’s home could have been used to identify him, had they been displayed widely enough.
The down side is that these sick people, are now also more aware of the risk they take by filming where there are identifiable features, or at least from posting them from a traceable Youtube site.
We need to find a way to determine these potentially psychotic people at the earliest stage possible, and I suggest all primary schools have some sort of Pets Corner where children can be observed in their interactions with defenceless little creatures.
If little Tommy is decidedly rough with the gerbils, you can safely guess that that child is having problems in his homelife. This could be like an early warning system for the schools to figure out who needs special attention.
The link is to a web page detailing an incident yesterday, whereby the person mentioned in the OP title, posted a video on Youtube of him beating up what I assume to be his family’s cat. It created a big fuss, naturally, and web detectives tracked his identity down.
Certainly seriously damaged, but I’d hope not totally beyond repair.
As for how that would be achieved though, I have no idea currently.
I really do think this kind of behaviour needs to be caught early though, as I’m convinced cruelty to animals is a step along the way to cruelty towards humans.
What these two kids did was horrible (Kenny Glenn 14 and Weston Glenn, 16…aka the cameraman) but I almost fear for their lives when they are released. There are numerous websites promising to seek revenge. Here is one of the milder ones:
Apparently they are being tried as Juveniles so they’ll likely just get a slap on the wrist. Also several other videos have surfaced…one where they are torturing a black and white cat and another where they are chasing a younger child around with a pitchfork!!
I just read the thread on the Ukranian serial killers and they started off making videotapes of themselves torturing cats…then they escalated to humans.:eek:
The Glenn brothers need some serious psychiatric intervention…
I agree. I most definitely fear for these kids once they go through the system. No matter the outcome, vigilantes have already sprung up promising “eye for an eye” treatment. It’s just as disgusting as what these two kids did.
Because this is, of course, something that the mother knew about or had any involvement with. Clearly, the appropriate thing to do is to harass her with emails, phone calls, and personal appearances at her home and at her place of business.
Am I laying on enough sarcasm to seep through your thick skull?
They just ran this story on our local news and any compassion I may have had for Kenny and Weston Glenn’s parents just fizzled.
Apparently the father, Mark Glenn, is the CEO for Glenn Oil (family business) and is known locally to be a White Supremist…which explains the kids’ liberal use of the N-word on the myspace, facebook and youtube links. Also, the mother who has raised these racist animal abusers works for the local school district :eek:.
I just watched the unedited video and God was that disturbing…the abuse of the poor cat and his helpless screams were horrid enough, but the boys’ **enjoyment **of it coupled with the maniacal laughter was extremely creepy. Also, calling the bathroom where they carried out the torture “the laboratory” and calling the cat the “test subject” was just surreal. I think they’ll have a successful future career as serial killers.
Two sadistic sociopaths from one family…I wonder if it’s nature or nurture…
I believe that animal torturing is a sign of sociopathy, is it not? I believe a lot of serial killers got their start torturing animals. Yep-I was right. Dahmer was one of them, it seems.
It’s caused quite the stir on http ://img.4chan.org/b/imgboard.html (link broken - NSFW, most likely). They talk a lot of shit, but I think one of the /b/tards could conceivably kill this kid.
ETA : I wouldn’t cry at his funeral. I loves my kitties.
Well, shit. I forgot this was the pit. I’d have made my last post ten million times harsher, but my initial anger wave has passed.
Yeah, just kill them now - save some lives before the torturers even get out of puberty. If I saw a video of my kid torturing a beautiful, defenseless (compared to a human’s size and strength) pet cat, I think I’d fucking kill myself out of deep shame.
