Pennsylvania lawmakers push for public registry to track animal abuse offenders
PENNSYLVANIA (WTAJ) — A new bill would work to better protect animals from harm, specifically, from those convicted of animal abuse. In a memo, Representatives Scott Conklin, Kathleen Tomlinson and Melissa Shusterman are pointing to other states when it comes to practices that work to protect those who cannot speak for themselves. They note that over a decade ago, Tennessee became the first state to adopt a resolution creating a statewide registry for animal abusers. They also note that since then, other states and local governments have introduced similar measures to better protect pets. 'Unfortunately, Pennsylvania is not one of these states, allowing individuals convicted of animal cruelty to go undetected. With no way for the community to quickly check for a past history of abuse, offenders are given the opportunity to continue these heinous acts as they are able to purchase or adopt animals,' The representatives wrote. Here are several cases that WTAJ has covered from Central Pennsylvania: Dogs, cat, bird rescued from abuse situation in Somerset County Bedford dog hoarding case set for trial Two charged after 'indescribable' animal abuse scene at Altoona house fire Four dogs found dead, 19 other animals surrendered in Cambria County According to a 2024 report, since Libre's Law took effect in Pennsylvania in 2017, there have been over 52,000 animal abuse offenses filed. From those numbers, nearly 61% had been for the neglect of animals, 29% were for cruelty to animals and 10% were for aggravated cruelty to animals. The proposed legislation would require people who are convicted of animal abuse to register their personal information and the offense for a 15-year period. They'd also have to annually renew their registration and every county sheriff would be tasked with maintaining a local registry that would be forwarded to state police. That registry would then be publicly accessible. 'As elected officials, it is our duty to protect every Pennsylvanian, including our animal friends and family members who cannot speak for themselves,' according to the memo. The representatives noted that they feel the registry would help to prevent abusers from continuing to inflict harm. Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
