A Justice 4 Karley tribute song by Maria Daines and Paul Killington.
'How can any human being just murder a puppy for no reason' Shelley Toole says fighting through tears.

Her family can't sleep.

Karley was a six month old shepherd mix.

What may surprise many people is that the neighbor is Los Angeles County Fire Chief Glynn Johnson.

On online biography lists a 30 year stellar career with the department. It says he's an expert in counter terrorism among other areas.

But his neighbors of the last ten years have a very different picture of the man. Jeff Toole, Shelley Tooles husband says he believes Chief Johnson needs alot of help.

The Tooles say that Monday night, Karley got out and went over to neighbor Travis Staggs home, he lives on the other side of Glynn Johnsons house.

Staggs said he was walking Karley home when Glynn Johnson stepped in and said that he would take the dog back home.

Staggs said that he reluctantly handed over the puppy and thats when it happened in Johnsons front yard.

Staggs says that Johnson simply started beating the dog and that the dog did not attack Johnson first.

According to the eyewitness, Johnson hit the dog repeatedly with a closed fist, put his hands in the puppys mouth and tried to break its jaws, and eventually beat the dog over the head repeatedly with a large rock from the front yard.

Staggs said that he tried to intervene but he couldn't. The Tooles later decided to put Karley down due to the extent of her injuries.

Riverside Deputies are still conducting interviews with eyewitnesses in an attempt to determine what happened in the case. If detectives find enough evidence that the dog beating was unwarranted then they will hand over the case to the District Attorney for a possible animal cruelty charge which is a felony.

The Tooles say that there is a "history of violence" with Glynn Johnson and deputies are looking into these claims as well.

"This man needs to go to prison for what he did", says Shelley Toole. She adds, "Karley was my baby and he took her away from me"

  • I am so impressed with all these people showing up to support Karley and oppose the brutal killer. Gives me a little more faith in the good inside of people when they choose to act. Great song Maria and Paul. Glynn Johnson needs to pay and dearly for this unwaranted attack and death of a PUPPY. He had so many other choices and is obviously a very sick man and should be removed from society for as long as possible.

  • Very sad." ( I hope this evil man gets what he deserves..Jail....for a long long time.

  • I wish justice wouldn't have to take so long but it's heartening to see supporters refusing to back down or quit. What a testament to the innocent spirit of Karley and domestic animal abuse victims everywhere.

  • These marches should be in front of Glynn Johnson's home!

  • How wonderful to know that justice has actually prevailed. Now at last beautiful Karley can rest.

  • Its a great Victory for Animal Activist everywhere,Please repost

    Verdict is IN for karley....GUILTY on BOTH accounts !!! Yes !!!

  • R.I.P little angel.

  • Been following this story all along. All I can say is bring back the electric chair (aka Old Sparky), sit him down and plug him in. Maybe a few play shocks first so he can die slow. The world doesnt need this filth nor should we pay to keep him in a cell...eye for an eye. Bless you sweet Karley, look how your story has affected so many. We will not forget.

  • keep the story alive! share it with friends....get involved for Karley and make sure the Johnson family doesn't have a moment of peace for the misery they cause the Toole family. JUSTICE 4 KARLEY WILL PREVAIL!

  • it touches my heart so much to see this. soooo many people who care. that's great.
