[surfercalavera]

Yes they`re in jail,he and his wife

[215pitts]

DAMN! He use to email me about pups and some of his dogs!

[MinorThreat]

exposing Paul Dunkel is funny? I dont see anything funny about breeding dogs and going to jail for it

[Titch_Pitbull]

He knowingly imported dogs into a country where the APBT is banned.

He knowingly faked paper work to get the APBT into a country where it is Banned

He knowingly placed that dog and lord knows how many others into the line of being destroyed.

---

Would you knowingly import a pit bull where the breed was banned?

[Verderben]

I stopped watching after the reporter was yelling at the guy about some girl was mauled by dogs like he bred which is unlikely. And after they said the APBT is a crossbreed made by dog fighters. Sensational propaganda. I saw nothing funny or good about that show.

[215pitts]

I think in the video he did a favor for them since they wanted the dog to go to the UK. Correct? Because what he did was ship it to another country than the reporters drove it to the UK which Dunkel didn't do. I guess the only favor that was done was fake the breed on the paper work.

[MinorThreat]

I dont see anything funny about it.

and yes I'd do whatever I see personally fit for my dogs and the breed, if it means not having respect/obeying laws, then so be it. I'm going out scratching and not letting anyone dictate what I do with my dogs

I register my dogs as muts, chain my dogs and maybe dont follow a few other laws. If I went to jail for it, it would be funny?


Who's side are you on?

Well from what you have said it seems we are on the same side.

[Titch_Pitbull]

I dont pick Sides.

All Im saying is that he got busted knowingly placing APBT's into danger where the breed is banned and there is a frenzy trying to catch them because of the aftermath of that little girls death

[Marduk]

Silly reporter... the fulcrum of the show was to prove that the APBT is dangerous to humans...but in the end...they only got 2 documented attacks (and repeated them a loooot) and we do not know the exact circunmstances... jornalists distort a lot the truth...

Girl's Death: Grandmother 'Responsible'

Updated: 20:49, Thursday September 06, 2007

<H2>The grandmother of a five-year-old girl mauled to death by a dog has admitted being responsible for her death in court.

</H2>http://static.sky.com/images/pictures/1580765.jpg Jacqueline Simpson

Jacqueline Simpson was baby-sitting Ellie Lawrenson in the early hours of New Year's Day when the family's pet pit bull terrier attacked her.

Simpson, who denies manslaughter, was giving evidence in her trial at Liverpool Crown Court.

The court has heard how after Simpson let pit bull terrier Reuben into her house in St Helens, Merseyside, the dog attacked Ellie and shook her for 20 minutes, inflicting 72 injuries on her body.
Asked in court if she accepted responsibility, Simpson, 45, said: "Yes, because I let the dog in.

"If things had gone the way they should have that day I wouldn't have had the kids anyway. I opened the door and it's my fault.

"I never thought the dog would do anything to Ellie."

Cross-examining her, Neil Flewitt QC, said: "You let that child down, didn't you?"

"Yes," she answered.

Simpson admitted consuming two bottles of wine and smoking 10 cannabis joints on the day.

Prosecuting QC Mr Flewitt said if she considered Reuben's exceptional strength and previous attacks Simpson must "have realised it could have killed a five-year-old girl".

She said: "I wouldn't have thought it could have done that to a baby it had grown up with."

The court also heard that the dog had been tormented, by being punched and kicked, by her son Kiel 10 minutes before the attack.

The jury of seven men and five women were told Simpson had broken a family rule by letting the dog inside the house when Ellie was present.

But Simpson, who denies manslaughter by gross negligence, claimed there was no such rule.

Same story is also found many times with a more appropritate headline. "Grandmother high on drink and drugs gets child killed".

Same story is also found many times with a more appropritate headline. "Grandmother high on drink and drugs gets child killed".
The owner of the dog has a conviction for drug dealing ,and the grandmother also have a conviction for drug dealing
When the cops searched the house after the child was killed they found a large quantity of heroin and £15,ooo in cash the Grandmother is also charged with this .

[~P.Champ~]

Thanks for the info Phebes, I hate how the media tries to spin the truth.

[olered]

the dog attacked her for 20 minutes??????????? what the f%^&!! that dog wouldn't have had the chance to live through the first two minutes, much less 20, i'd find something in my house to get that dog off pretty quick. breakstick, 2X4, knife, my 357 if i had a clear shot. i be damned if i'm not going to do everything within my power even put my own life on the line to have saved that child's life. and it says that the dog has attacked before?? i wouldn't even have that dog, much less around a child.

oh this may be why: Simpson admitted consuming two bottles of wine and smoking 10 cannabis joints on the day.
