recently, there was a similar incident that happened. joseph candare, a student of up diliman, described on his blog how he killed a cat. paws, an animal care group, initiated a case against him and he was found guilty. he was convicted by the quezon city trial court. let us wait if the group will also have the same action versus senador.
