Teen Flees Town After Posting This Graphic Picture on Facebook of a Dog Killed by an Arrow

Feb. 19, 2013 1:28pm

​Editor’s note: This post contains a graphic image. Discretion is advised.

An Oklahoma high school student has received death threats and left town after he posted a picture of a pit bull he had killed with a bow and arrow on Facebook.

In addition to the picture, the post by 18-year-old Caisen Green read, ”For all you pit lovers out there. Here’s what happens when one shows up around my house.”

Oklahoma Teen Caisen Green Posts Picture of Pit Bull Shot With Arrow on Facebook

This image has since been removed from Facebook and Green’s page as a whole has been disabled for the time being. (Image: Facebook via Daily Mail)

The Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office is investigating the issue, but authorities said in a press release that Green has not been available for questioning as he left the area due to death threats he had been receiving, KJRH reported. Undersheriff Jason Chennault asked in the release for people to stop making threats against Green and his Green family and noted that those making threats could be subject to prosecution.

“I understand people don’t want to see animals hurt,” Chennault told the Muskogee Phoenix. “But death threats are not going to help the situation.”

The Phoenix went on to report Chennault saying that the department needs more information about the events surrounding the dog’s death.

“It’s a gray area,” Chennault said to the Phoenix. “If the dog is threatening livestock or your well-being, you can do what you have to do stop it. I’m going to do my best to get everything done this week, and we’ll forward the report to the (District 27) District Attorney’s Office.”

Fox 23 reported these thoughts from local residents regarding the photo:

“He needs to be punished the right way, and not by people doing something to him,” says Tahlequah resident, Charles York.

[...]

“Something needs to be done and he shouldn’t be able to get away with killing a dog like that and putting it on facebook and have nothing done to him,” says Jennifer Tillison.

Fox 23 also reported that Green is expected to give a statement to law enforcement with his attorney Tuesday.

Officials with the local humane society are reported as saying they were shocked by the post but wouldn’t seek jail time as punishment as they don’t feel it would change Green’s attitude toward the breed.

“It would be better for him to have to work community service, maybe 100 hours in a facility to where he can learn and be around people who love dogs and understand dogs lives,” Humane Society of Cherokee County board member Lou Hays told KJRH-TV.

    So…when’s the last time you can remember a story on the local news, involving a dog killing someone’s grandmother, that is NOT a pit bull? Think about that one…

    Regardless of your personal feelings towards pit bulls, if the dog was not being aggressive towards anyone, this is absolutely uncalled for. Any human that can do this to an innocent dog could do this to an innocent human. This person has serious emotional issues.

    Our society needs to take action to protect ourselves from this evil.

    I can’t believe what I’m reading from some of the people here. To totally want to destroy a breed that has been around for over 100 years? Did anyone ever hear of Pitbulls 15 years ago? Back in the 30′s they were considered a “Nanny dog”. Petey the Pitbull never attacked any of the Little Rascals!!! What about in the 70′s, when Dobermans were the vicious dog of choice? Was there an uproar to kill that breed? What about Rotties? Yes, this breed WAS CREATED to fight other dogs and some can be dog aggressive. But any dog can be dog aggressive. People aggression is something that they have been taught to do. They are terriers, the TERRIER BREED is strong willed. I have 3 rescued pitbulls – one is dog aggressive but the other 2 are not. I have had other dogs all my life and some of them were dog agressive as well. Neighboor has a very agressive German shepherd – should this breed be destroyed as well??? Show some common sense people!

      I can’t say much.Except your right.Great post.
      I drive all over up in Michigan,100-350 miles daily.Mostly on 55 mph 2 lane highways and some country roads.There are people who STILL actually keep their dog outside 24/7/365,chained to a dog house.Its the only life these dogs know.
      I see dogs wandering aimlessly along the road,looking for anything,probably food.I want to stop,but I can’t…if I had room for a couple canines a month in my cab,I’d take them.

    You folks that are posting the sweet virtues, character and personalties of the pit bull are some of the most ignorant and self deceived fools that God ever permitted to draw a breath. Your stupidity is without depth and on the day that your pit takes its retarded and line bred wrath out on you, your child or some member of your family, please remember one thing out of respect for those of us who completely understand that breed: Take it like a little man and STFU – you begged for it and none of us want to hear about your pain, loss or horror.

    This kid’s only mistake was to let the cat out of the bag after he killed that mutt.

    Based on information given he didn’t necessarily do anthong wrong but the death threats against him are sick and illegal. I have killed several dogs with a shotgun. Killing by itself is no biggie. Dog meat taste excellent, I hope he ate him after the picture.

    I bet 99.9 percent of you wackos have never owned a Pitbull. I have and it was one of the sweetest dogs I have ever owned. So if I just shot your dog for no reason bc I assumed it was a vicious dog how would you fee? This ass should be in jail. Check your stats small dogs have about 10000 more bites than Pits yearly. God you freaks piss me off. No bad dogs bad owners.

      I have owned three Pit Bulls, two males (one neutered) and one female (spayed). Had them for many years. They died of old age.
      They were raised in a very loving environment, with the whole fenced back yard to run and play in. I would not ever want another Pit Bull. I think the breed should be banned.

      Even though they were playful and loving, they had a stubbornness and a mean streak just under the surface. It would not have taken very much for that mean streak to break the surface. They always needed a firm hand, and had to be reminded of their pecking order in society.

      They were not siblings, so it’s not as if they all inherited the same personalities and temperament.

    Nothing is ever that black & white. Pit bull bad Rottweiler bad Doberman bad. Well I’ve come home from walking my son’s dog with torn jeans & bloody knees because my neighbor lets his nasty little aggressive poodle run off leash regularly. The only exercise his dogs get is when he lets them out to chase the neighbors who are walking their dogs on a leash! I have no problem with any particular breed of dog but I do have a problem with people who are not responsible pet owners. As for this boy who posted the picture of his kill on Facebook, he deserves all the criticism he is getting. He didn’t kill this animal for any reason other than the thrill. That’s a problem. What will he need to feed that thrill next time? Kittens in the woodchipper? And down the road will it take bullying little kids on the bus? Then it takes serial killing? It starts with the thrill of killing animals, but it rarely ends there.

    Assuming it was a good kill, ie no collar meaning wild animal, etc etc, I’d have eaten that dog. Wasted meat. Spaghetti with meat sauce.

    Interesting scrolling down through the comments and seeing terms such as “ban”, make illegal, and “unlawful”, in terms of not allowing someone to own a certain type of dog…..specially from a conservative sight. Are we now supporting government telling us what kind of pets we can own?

    The Pit Bull has become such a dangerous breed, that it should be banned.
    They tend to end up in the wrong hands and the wrong environment.
    They seem to be used more for guarding drug houses and for dog fighting, than utilized as family pets.

    Death threats from animal lovers? Oh my but that is a surprise.
    I agree with the kid. Pit bulls account for a very large percentage of attacks and deaths from dog attacks. One comes in my yard and makes a threatening gesture and it is dead.

    Wonder how long it will be before this fool is posting photos of his human kills on facebook? I have no love for pitbulls, my animals, wife,myself, and renters children having been menaced by one twenty feet from my house [No danger of it returning, BTW]. No idea why it acted so aggressively, but gut shooting one with an arrow in the guts is not my idea of a humane solution to the problem. Further, if this punk had used a broadhead point, as he should have if he wanted to kill, it should have penetrated all the way through the dog, or at least to the fletching. Was this photo faked? Only Mr Green knows.

    The dog was starved, look at the bones protruding from the body. Also, the shot of the arrow is on a side angle, into the dogs gut. Further more the “kid” boasts about killing the animal like it was nothing, rather, he relished killing the animal and looked forward to doing more harm. In retrospect the “kid” is using poor judgement, inflicting harm, seemingly unsupervised. Yeah, there are red flag warnings here, he needs to be educated & get proper assistance. Society should reach out to him, not shut him out, & threaten his sorry butt. Make sure he doesn’t own any animals, provide traps if there are wild dogs in area, find who released these animals, abandoned them into the area and punish them.

    Not enough information in this story. Who knows what happened. The only facts are that there is a dead dog and the kid should have kept his fool mouth shut. I assume he killed the dog to protect private property. (I may be wrong on that) You can’t do that today without hiding out like a criminal.

    Also. I hate dogs in general. I have been bit many times, they have killed my livestock and cause all sorts of property damage in the several places I have lived. I have killed a few for harassing my livestock. Some belonged to my family. Both my parents and almost all of my siblings have individually killed someones pet because of where we grew up. There is no shame in it. I do not understand the irrational hatred spewed to anyone who kills a dog or cat. Somehow it’s ok to eat a cow, trap a mouse and poison a gopher but killing an animal that is causing damage to my property is just the end of the world because it might be someone’s pet?

    When I was a kid the neighbor said if I see your dog here one more time I’m going to shoot it. We took the dog home and kept it tied up, on a leash or in a kennel for over a month. One day we untied it and that dog made a b-line for that neighbor. Never saw that dog again. I don’t blame or hate that guy. Such is life. He shot Micky the dog not my little brother.

      You’re statement “I hate dogs…” demonstrates your ignorance in people’s attachment to their pets. Many people spend a lot of money, time, training, etc. in their pets (Glenn Beck for example). Unless I’m mistaken, most of do not eat our pets as we do livestock so killing other people’s pets should draw some shame. If someone would should our dog, they would very quickly learn the term, “don’t fear the dog, beware of the owner.”

    Lou Hays from the end the story is right.
    The kid needs to spend lots of hours at a local animal shelter,cleaning up after neglected or abandoned animals.Feeding them and comforting them for a few days.I wonder how he’d feel about watching some of these other breeds being put down,after being unwanted by anybody.Just a little understanding.

    Obviously not a hunter. That dog died slow. And yes, the dog wasn’t facing him for whatever that’s worth. Weird looking arrow too? Compound bow would have passed threw, or even a decent traditional bow. My guess is be had a toy type bow and didn’t think he would even hit the animal. Obviously did and must have weighted a bit for the dog to expire. Or took the pic while it was still alive. Either way, pretty disturbed kid, wouldn’t want to meet him. At least with out my gun on me.
