Summary
Aubrey Vanlandingham, a 17-year-old Texas student, was charged with animal cruelty after poisoning a classmate’s show goat, Willie, with pesticide, allegedly because she “does not like cheaters.”
Surveillance footage captured her force-feeding the goat with a syringe on October 23, leading to its death the following day.
Investigators found searches on her phone related to poisoning animals. The Texas Future Farmers of America condemned her actions, emphasizing ethical behavior and animal welfare.
Vanlandingham faces up to two years in jail and a $10,000 fine, with a court date set for January 15.
“Investigators found searches on her phone for how to poison pets, how much bleach is needed to kill an animal, and how to clear search history,” clearly didn’t learn anything from that last search.
I gotta imagine that level of search would likely only yield results that will dupe family or technologically illiterate police. Any investigator with half a brain would be able to figure out the searches.
That’s fair. I know there are cases where cops will say they didn’t find anything but only because they only looked at Internet Explorer.
How trumpian of her
Future AG material.
Maybe Department of Agriculture depending on her position on child labor

She’s a child you fucking creep.
She’s 17. That’s definitely a child when it comes to relationships or physical intimacy with another person, etc. But that’s also very close to conscription age, especially when it comes to poisoning animals
Right, the above comment was purely sexualizing her, though. No one was arguing that she shouldn’t be tried as an adult.
What is that supposed to mean?
It means that account is yet another fucking turfing political propaganda account, if it’s not actually a bot, or else it’s a normal person who thinks so closely to propaganda accounts or AI bots that they functionally might as well be one. That said, I responded to them too so I guess they win this round? 🤷♂️ *jerking hand motion *
That mugshot suggests that she can’t shut the fuck up.
“She left the barn but not before returning twice a day to take photos and a video, according to the Statesman.”
I mean… probably before too.
I kinda want her to get the full two years, but jail doesn’t cure stupid.
Stupidity is not the problem here.
She a minor, first time offender, and a white woman. If she doesn’t get a light tap on the wrist I’ll be surprised.
She’s not a minor. Not in TX. 17 is tried as an adult for criminal offenses.

Unless she said “you’re next” within the cops hearing. That’s terrorism charges, boys!
But what about her future?!? She could be a State Governor, or Homeland Security Secretary, we have to protect her!
How was the goat cheating?
“The teen said that the student taking care of the goat was a “cheater” and that she “does not like cheaters.” She did not detail how she believed the competitor was cheating.”
So she punishes the innocent animal of course.

So it will die either way, but it died sooner here and, giving benefit of the doubt to the farm 's normal practices, “this” death was anything but humane from the sound of it.
Nah if you own one, it’s akin to a pet.
Hmm. What does this vague victimization remind me of?
Maybe she just sucked at mario kart
lemmy crossover episode
Yeah I’m confused. You don’t get to be the Greatest Of All Time by cheating
I read this as she cheated on her lover by sleeping with someone else.
Future MAGA farmers of America.
Exactly. The TeKKKsas GQP is gonna be on her faster than her parole officer.
I feel sorry for her future boyfriend, rip.
Sorry to be not serious for a bit. Serious posters with actual important things to say. I’m gonna get some stupid thrill from making fun of her name. I know her name is Aubrey; let’s pretend it’s something else.
Hi. I’m Amanda! Amanda “Mandy” Candace “Candy” Van Landingham. I’m gonna sing my favorite number, “Black Betty (Bam-ba-lam)”.
