Murder charges for couple whose dogs killed runner
LAPEER, Mich. (AP) � Prosecutors have filed second-degree murder charges against a couple they say owned two dogs that fatally mauled a 46-year-old jogger on in rural Michigan.
The Flint Journal reports that Lapeer County Prosecutor Tim Turkelson issued the warrants Thursday against 45-year-old Sebastiano Quagliata and 44-year-old Valbona Lucaj. They're also charged with possessing a dangerous animal causing death.
A message seeking comment was left for the couple's lawyer Thursday night. The dogs are cane corsos.
Craig Sytsma of Livonia was attacked July 23 in Metamora Township, 45 miles northwest of Detroit.
The Detroit Free Press reports that federal authorities say the couple are Albanians living in the U.S. illegally and facing deportation.
The prosecutor says a hearing on whether the two dogs will be put down will be postponed from Friday. http://www.kboi2.com/news/national/Murder-charges-for-couple-whose-dogs-killed-runner-269476551.html

Yep, we must have a hearing before deciding if two killer dogs will be put down. progress.

They will get a pass based on their minority status.

They would have been "put down" when they got within about 6 feet of my tender parts. I have done it before and in town.

runners worst nightmare. few years back when i was into my long run phase, i had picked a new route and was about 7 miles in and about done and i came around a corner on a rural road and a huge rottweiler came charging off a hill at me and was stopped short by a piece of chain around his neck. he was seriously freaking out and the lone house where he was chained had no cars in the driveway. i think it would have killed or seriously injured me if it had been loose. i was spent and could not have put up much of a fight. i had to resist the urge to go back later and do a drive-by on it. i was very seriously considering it but instead chose to change my route.

Rem,running is a trigger for attack behavior in most every carnivore I have ever heard of. Whenever I wanted to play with my own dog back when I still had a dog, running would bring him chasing. Stopping and facing him stopped him cold. Not that stopping would necessarily have worked for you, but predators (including us)don't usually get to follow through when the prey/quarry is looking right at them.

thats what i did but the rott stood up on his hind legs with the chain stretched tight and his mouth was wide open and looked like 4 chain saws going full blast. i'm not sure what he would have done if the chain broke but i'm thinking it would not have been good. the dog looked seriously mistreated as well. it had one of those plastic 55 gallon drums for a dog box and about 15' of chain and from the looks of it, thats where it lived 24x7. the house that it was chained at looked like a white trash palace too. the real scary thing was the hill was right about at eye level with me as i was running.

Why the heck does there have to be a hearing?

As a person that has ran a whole lot of miles in town, you'd be amazed how careless people are about their dogs.

I always carry a gun when I run and when I remember I carry pepper spray too. I'm 71 and have never been bitten by a dog so I must be doing something right. I used the pepper spray on a dog few months ago and it worked but I don't know if it will work on a large determined dog (like a Pit Bull or Rottweiler). I bought the pepper spray in a gun shop in the Florida panhandle that recommended it. I think the brand is "Hades" and it worked well when I used it but has orange dye in it that won't wash off. I'm sure the owner of the dog I sprayed wondered who painted his dog's face orange.

Cane Corso you better have some serious firepower? It takes a bit to get a Corso's attention. They are a great animal if trained and supervised properly.
Shoot the owners and the dogs?

Dog are predators just like humans are , if you run from them, then they only see you as prey , stand your ground and then they have second thoughts unless they sense the fear in you. Carry a knife if you can't carry a pistol, no better weapon at FACE TO FACE Combat with animal or human.

Bea, you are right about a knife, but you better know how to use one. if you don't you will hurt your self more than your opponent. I carry a firearm when hiking (can't run anymore) and when running my dogs. along with a can of UDAP bear spray. here I worry more about Wolves coming after my pups than bears. plus the spray will work on two legged varmints as well. I say put down the illegals and adopt out the dogs to the border patrol.
the consolidation of the states into one vast republic, sure to be aggressive abroad and despotic at home, will be the certain precursor of that ruin which has overwhelmed all those that have preceded. Robert E Lee ~Molɔ̀ːn Labé Skýla~
