There was a story on Dateline NBC about 3 teen agers that killed 23 cats by clubbing them to death. I figured, since they did a story like that, they might do one about the Spokane Ferrets if they get enough people emailing them about it. Here's what I wrote: After watching the Dateline of 12/23/97 which featured a story about teenagers clubbing to death and injuring 23 cats, I thought or should I say hoped that you might be interested in doing something with the story of a 20 y/o boy, taken in by a friend, who killed 93 ferrets by injecting them with Drano and/or bleach. The ferret community is outraged by this and hopes to gain publicity to secure a just punishment for the man accused of killing the ferrets.

I could also put you in contact with the people involved in this story. Thank you for your consideration.
