An article I read today.

A US woman tried to post a live puppy more than 1,100 miles.
Stacey Champion attempted to deliver four-month-old Guess from Minneapolis to Atlanta, Georgia via air-mail as a present for a child, writing on the package: "This is for your 11th birthday. It's what you wanted."

Stunned postal workers opened the parcel when they saw it moving and heard panting – and were shocked to see the dog emerge from the box, which had no air holes.
Police say it would have taken two days for the delivery to arrive at its destination, in which time Guess would died of suffocation, starvation, dehydration or been frozen as the plane reached a high altitude.
Champion, 39, had told the post office clerk to "be careful" with the package and has subsequently been charged with animal cruelty.

Thank god the pup was saved. I hope that woman gets jailed for life, if not something much worse.

Ignorance holds no bounds I am afraid.

For example in China I have heard of a village girl being hired to look after an 8 month old baby and when it got sick on its self she decided to clean the little baby by putting it in the washing machine before the parents got home. It died and she was arrested.

Education does play a big part in civilized society.

Jesus how stupid can someone be? At least I hope she is just stupid, and not an incredibly cruel person. Her punishment should be 48 hours in a box. One air hole, one bottle of water, nothing else. Except the Barney theme tune played over and over.

Well she definitely shouldn't get away with it! Maybe jailed for life would be a bit harsh:P....but what she tried to do to that poor pup is just awful

mikemac

I think she needs to see a doctor and not jail time

Something nothing right about this women
I don't think it was stupidity or cruelty that lead to this. Doubt she even understood what would happen

SophieSakura

Sounds to me like she is just really really incredibly stupid . . .

I wonder if the kid got her puppy in the end?

ToniTuddle

If the kid lives a 1000miles away from her or whatever...then why didn't she send the money for the pup to the person who is looking after the kid and tell them to get a local pup and say it's from her.....

Lordy! >.<
