Charges in Animal Abuse Investigation (On behalf of the Calgary Humane Society) The Calgary Humane Society has charged a man in relation to an animal abuse investigation where a dog and a cat were found deceased with their muzzles bound shut. On Thursday, Jan. 9, 2014, the Calgary Humane Society’s Protection and Investigations Department was notified by the City of Calgary Animal Services that a deceased Siberian husky had been found in an alley in the 200 block of 99 Avenue S.E. On Thursday, Jan. 16, 2014, the Humane Society was informed that a deceased black and white domestic short haired cat had been found in the same alley. Both animals were taken to a local veterinarian for necropsy to determine the cause of death. It was determined that the Husky died from starvation and that the dog had been chronically malnourished. The veterinarian also determined the cause of death for the cat was asphyxia due to ligature strangulation following the infliction of multiple traumatic injuries to the head, tail and hind limbs. With the assistance of the Calgary Police Service, a search warrant was executed on Friday, Jan. 24, 2014, at a residence in 9900 block of Bonaventure Drive S.E. Following the lengthy investigation by the Calgary Humane Society’s Protection and Investigations Department, Nicolino Ivano CAMARDI, 19, has been charged with two counts of 445.1(1)(a) – wilfully causing unnecessary pain, suffering or injury to an animal. The Calgary Humane Society and the Calgary Police Service would like to thank the media and the public for their assistance in this investigation.
