Hi Chuck,
I agree.the sentence was probably intended to inform the list that the
reward is to repay whoever first identifies the perpetrator and makes an
arrest possible.
At least, that is for what I remember it was being collected. This incident
is the sort of event that needs to be followed until the criminal is
apprehended. Such violence is frequently a precursor of future violence
aimed at humans..
I was taught in judge school that sometimes serial killers make a steady
diet of violence against animals to sustain them between doses of violence
against other human beings. Neither is acceptable, of course, .but it is a
frighteningly good indicator of a person whose violent tendencies will not
be sated by a single incident of bloodlust.

Subject: RE: [AlpacaTalk] Beheaded Cria
I'm a bit concerned about something that Michael said in his post (see
below):
"If you have a dollar or two that you could send I know the Wards would
appreciate this and the money will eventually be paid to the person(s) who
did this".
Surely, the reward money isn't going to the person(s) who did this???
I hope that there are just a few words missing from that sentence.
Regards,
