An Ohio woman was sent behind bars for 180 days following her gut-wrenching act of cruelty toward her own dog, Honey.
22-year-old Diamond Owens was frustrated over Honey’s repeated inclination to “bite” her boyfriend. She broke Honey’s neck in a ruthless attempt to kill her, and then discarded her in the dumpster once she was convinced the dog was dead.

A maintenance worker found Honey’s limp-but-still-breathing body and alerted the authorities. The officers at Copley Police Department were able to rescue Honey and get her the medical attention she needed.
During investigations, Diamond confessed to hurting Honey, but defended herself saying that she did not have enough money to get her euthanized.
