Pentagon Official Charged in Connection With Brutal Dogfighting Ring

I could go off on this story for hours, they have known or at atleast suspected since 2018,and are just now getting around to charges? No telling how many dogs were sacrificed during this time period. Secondly it's been going on since early 2000's find it hard to believe this wasn't partially discovered during the Michael Vick dog fighting in the same general area. Speculation on my part but would not be surprised if it was allowed to go on, even if it was discovered.

These are the officials we are supposed to believe will be forthcoming on other issues related to the DoD, like Ukraine, China, UAP/UFOs, missing billions in funds.

Let's start there and see where the conversation goes...

A senior member of the Department of Defense communications staff has been arrested and charged with participating in a dogfighting ring in the D.C. area for more than 20 years, federal authorities disclosed Monday. The ring regularly trained dogs for fights, ran thousands of dollars in bets on the outcomes, and executed dogs that didn’t die during matches, court records state.

Frederick Douglass Moorefield Jr., 62, of Arnold, Md., was a deputy chief information officer for command, control and communications for the Secretary of Defense’s Chief Information Officer, court records and Moorefield’s LinkedIn page show. He was arrested Thursday on a charge of promoting and furthering animal fighting venture, along with a longtime friend who allegedly admitted his participation in dogfighting, Mario D. Flythe, 49, of Glen Burnie.

Investigators found battery jumper cables, which allegedly were used to execute dogs at Moorefield’s house, along with five pit bull-type dogs at his house and five pit bull-type dogs at Flythe’s house, court records show. The FBI, the Department of Agriculture and other local and federal agencies raided both houses on Sept. 6, according to a federal affidavit, finding weighted collars and heavy metal chains used to increase fighting dogs’ strength. Authorities said they also found “an apparatus that is used for involuntarily inseminating female dogs” and stains “consistent with bloodstains from dogfights.”

I'm getting to where I don't even want to read the news anymore.

Adults hurting other adults is bad enough.
Adults hurting innocent children and animals?

I'm ready to say, shoot them all, and let God sort'em out.

Government officials doing this illegal crap?
I bet they get a slap on the wrist.

Worthless air breather.

I know here's the thing, this guy had a white-collar job, and likely made decent money, which kind of removes some of the financial incentive. ie it was done for enjoyment.

In only extreme law enforcement military circumstances should dogs even be trained to be that aggressive.

I want to know more about how they knew for 5 years or more?

a reply to: putnam6

Absolutely.

How many dogs died in those 5 or more years?
How many suffered horribly?

Did they arrest thousands? Hundreds?

Will anyone actually spend any real time for this?

Yet not a word on the child pornography found on over 200 computers in the Pentagon....

So dogs have more value than children?

Of course not, link it Max, but did the child porn news pop up this week? I don't recall. Just did a quick search nada.

You do know how to post links to stories, you know so others can get up to your speed in case they missed something

Seriously ... who could get a kick out of watching scared animals rip each other up?
Sick.

I just saw this and was going to create a thread.

Im appalled at the depravity of this man. How did he hide his nature for so long?

It breaks my heart.

a reply to: TheMindOfMax

We can be pissed off about both at the same time, can't we?

Make a thread!

Military and police working dogs are not trained to 'be aggressive'. Not at all.

They are picked for their playful nature, lack of fear, work ethic, and ability to call off when given the command.

Sheesh.

Sheesh indeed, you knew what I meant...

Are you telling me guard dogs at our military bases in certain areas are gonna come out and sit and signal? they will do what their trainer tells them to do.

Got no problem with that regardless, but when some azzhat can't keep thier dog from mauling some kid it's a different story

a reply to: putnam6

So your video shows what I said: most important skill dog and handler have is the call out. If a dog isn't 100% reliable at that basic working behavior, that dog should not be on the force.

A playful dog doesn't get hung up over letting go of the bad guy. A more aggressive one does.

The best working dog is the one doing it for the FUN of it. And to make his handler and human team happy.

Sheesh man are you done hijacking the thread over a Minor detail, or do you want to continue the back and forth, I can go on all day.

It was a BS reply you know what Im referring to I love dogs German Shepherds in particular. if they are trained poorly they can be aggressive AF which is my original point.

here's my quote, you took and ran with

In only extreme law enforcement military circumstances should dogs even be trained to be that aggressive.

There's is nothing ambiguous about this quote, and the videos show poorly trained police dogs can and will sometimes attack thus we should be careful about training all dogs this way

a reply to: putnam6

And I will say again.

A good working dog is NEVER trained to "be aggressive".

Aggressive makes the dog unmanagable.

Well trained, good working dog is having fun. Dogs dont need to be trained to bite.

Dogs need to be trained to LET GO.


Im done. You can keep making your point if you want. But I'm not wrong.

You aren't wrong LOL it just had nothing to do with my quote, I probably wouldn't have continued but you added the "SHEESH" inferring there was something wrong with the quote. There isn't anything incorrect or ambiguous about the quote that garnered the "sheesh" from you.

my quote
"In only extreme law enforcement military circumstances should dogs even be trained to be that aggressive."

Military and police working dogs are not trained to 'be aggressive'. Not at all.

They are picked for their playful nature, lack of fear, work ethic, and ability to call off when given the command.

I never said suggested or inferred dogs were chosen for their aggressiveness, but they were and are trained to ATTACK aggressively upon command, a big difference, and as the last video shows, there are plenty of police dogs that aren't trained properly and thus are hazards to the public and sometimes police officers themselves.

All your following answers contain qualifiers while my comment was specifically that the Military and Police should be the only persons able to train to attack aggressively on command.

That would require a functioning society lead by competent moral individuals. We have neither...

Instead.

a reply to: putnam6

Holy Cow!

You surely went high and wide over a silly expression!

Sheesh!

It happened when Barry Obama was in office and I was a TYT daily viewer, which is where I saw it. I'll try to dig it up. Gaggle came up empty, huh? Interesting....
