A Chicago elementary school teacher was ordered held on $200,000 bail today after he admitted to police that he punched his rescue dog to death.

Derek Fierro, 25, told officers the dog had eaten “every piece of paper in the house” and had defecated on itself.

“The man became angry when the dog continuously struggled as he tried to place the animal in the bathtub to wash it. That is when he beat the dog to death with his fists,” the arrest report said.

Fierro called Chicago police on Friday at 3 a.m., crying and saying he did not know why he had beaten the dog, according to the police report,

When officers arrived at his Chicago apartment building, Fierro gave them his car keys and permission to open the trunk of his car, where they found the body of a “yellow male dog,” the report said.

He was taken into custody and is charged with a felony count of aggravated cruelty to an animal.

Fierro is a fourth grade teacher at Eugene Field Elementary School in Chicago, according to the school’s website.

Chicago Public Schools officials will investigate the incident, which could result in disciplinary action, the Chicago Tribune reported.

Jail him. People like that can go on to do the same thing to humans. He has shown he has a bad temper as well.
 
I think the 200K bond was over the top.

Heck, child molesters and rapists aren't given bail bonds that high.

After all, we are talking about a dog not a person.
 
No one should be surprised at anything that comes out of Chicago. Has anyone checked the water for lead?

Dogs are just as precious as humans. I agree with the high bail set.

If you beat an animal or a child to death with your fists you are lower than the lowest on this planet.

Sunni Man, I think this man deserves the same punishment that he gave his dog. He took a life that is precious in the eyes of our Lord and beat it to death.

Now, this man potentially has the ability to teach children in a classroom? Would you want this man teaching your children?

Look out your window Noomi. Pigs are flying. Check headlines. Hell has frozen over. :D

I agree with you.
