Acea Schomaker, the 20-year-old Nebraska man who was Nebraska man pleads guilty to animal cruelty in cat bong case
Acea Schomaker, the Nebraska man who was cited in March for placing a cat in a makeshift marijuana bong, pleaded guilty Monday to animal cruelty charges in the incident. Schomaker, who recently turned 21, also pleaded guilty to charges of marijuana possession and being in possession of alcohol while he was still a minor, the Lincoln Journal Star reported. Schomaker originally pleaded not guilty to animal cruelty charges in April and has said his intention was not to harm the cat, a six-month-old female named Shadow, but rather to calm her. Schomaker will return to court Sept. 18 for sentencing; he could face up to a year in jail, according to the Journal Star.

phase of the case will begin tomorrow. I am ecstatic that justice has prevailed in this case and that the
jurors saw through the games the defense put on as their case. Now if
we can get a serious sentence I will really say that justice has
prevailed!! This needs to standout as a landmark case when it comes to
animal abuse!! People have got to 
putting up missing posters. On the 31st of July, a foul smell led them to her, stuffed in the ceiling of the basement. Their beloved dog was dead. She’d been killed by blunt force trauma to the head. Now, a year later, the story comes to light.
Shon adopted a cat from Citizens for Humane Action (C.H.A.) on January 26, 1999. In the early morning hours of February 6, Shon beat the cat, poked out its eye, broke its jaw legs, and left it bloody and in agony in a laundry basket in his apartment. He asked Melissa to come over and get it and take it to Delaware County Humane Society and tell them she found it along the road. She instead took it to Columbus Veterinary Emergency Service (CVES) who humanely euthanized it due to the extensive nature of its injuries. Shon Rahrig, about 30 years old, of Sandbury Blvd, allegedly adopted 6 or 7 cats and a puppy from various local shelters and allegedly abused them horribly, broke their limbs, put their eyes out, etc. Shon was subsequently arraigned and charged with one count of animal abuse. Shon at first plead not guilty, but changed his plea to guilty. On September 29,1999, Judge Pfeiffer sentenced Shon to 90 days in jail (of which 45 were suspended), 5 years probation, mandatory counseling and he was forbidden from owning any living thing during the 5 year probation period. He began serving his sentence on November 1.
After
a night of partying, Noel Guido-Silva and another ranch hand started
racing their car and truck, chasing down a horse in a fenced pasture.
Gentle Song was a 23-year-old mare owned by a 13-year-old girl. The
truck knocked the horse into the path of the car, and she suffered a
fatal head injury. Guido-Silva was found guilty by a jury of felony
animal cruelty, felony vandalism, misdemeanor trespassing and
misdemeanor hit-and-run driving. He was acquitted of felony conspiracy
and intentionally killing a horse. He was sentenced to three years in
prison and was to be deported after his time served. However, an
appellate court, citing faulty jury instructions, overturned
Guido-Silva’s cruelty and vandalism convictions, and prosecutors dropped
the charges, rather than refilling them.
The
girlfriend of Alexander Gregor, 22, came home from work one day in 2008
to find him beating their German shepherd, Jake, whom had been adopted
from the Hilton Head (S.C.) Humane Association. She tried to stop him,
and he allegedly hit her and bit her several times. While his girlfriend
ran and hid from him, he shot Jake in the head with a pellet gun and
submerged his head underwater in the bathtub until he died. Gregor was
arrested on a criminal domestic violence charge.
In
2004, the then 29-year-old Robert Rydzewski shot his neighbor’s dog
Mollie in the face twice, claiming she was going after him and his
rabbits. The upstate New Yorker was charged with torturing and injuring
an animal. Two months later, he killed another neighbor’s Welsh Corgi,
named Sis, with an ax, resulting in yet another charge of torturing and
killing a domestic animal. 
Stephen Barry King, convicted in August of 2002 of animal cruelty in
the UK is now working as an dog trainer in Reno, NV. This is not a nice
guy! Not only does he perpetrate his cruelty upon defenseless animals,
but women and children as well. Zeider states that during the 4 sessions King became increasingly agitated and ended up attacking a Burmese Mountain dog puppy. The dog was screaming and King has both hands on the leash and was jerking the dog hard to the right and left and holding him up in the air. The dog was fighting for his life, biting at the choke chain, trying to get free. Kristin Beck states that King beat the Burmese Mountain dog puppy so badly that it “shit all over himself and was bleeding all over the floor”. 
In
June 2000, sanitation workers found five dead dogs in trash cans
outside Craig Boyd’s home. Witnesses complained of a foul odor from dead
and live animals kept in the hot basement. Chicago Police Department’s
Animal Abuse Control Team (AACT) raided the residence and found a
basement area allegedly used for dogfight training. Six live dogs,
including one puppy, were found in terrible conditions: tightly confined
without room to move, without food or water, emaciated, and suffering
from infected ears and multiple lacerations consistent with dogfighting
injuries.
