He threw a puppy into a fire on Facebook Live. Then he kicked it back in when it tried to crawl out.

December 18, 2024. Orangeburg, South Carolina. Deputies got the video the same day and found the dead puppy in the woods nearby.

Desmond Levon Brown, 30, pleaded guilty under the federal PACT Act. Today a Columbia judge gave him 5 years in prison and 3 years supervised release.

First PACT Act case the U.S. Attorney in South Carolina has ever prosecuted. Max was 7.

U.S. Attorney Bryan Stirling called it heinous. Five years out of seven. You tell me if that matches what he did to that puppy.
