Jealous thug's fury over sausage dog puppy landed him in prison
manchestereveningnews.co.ukA teenager's fury over a dachshund puppy landed him in a prison cell. Jack Laffey threatened to "snap the necks" of both the dog and his girlfriend because he feared that she would begin seeing other men if he was sent to prison.
He pursued her around the streets in a car, jumping onto the bonnet of her vehicle and even kicked the windscreen. The thug then brushed his actions off as "a bit of murder with my bird".
Liverpool Crown Court heard yesterday (September 17) that Laffey had been in a relationship with Amy Connolly since January this year before the couple bought a dachshund puppy called Timmy on April 24.
But they began to argue as he "believed she would sleep with other people while he was in jail", with the 19-year-old apparently being wanted by Merseyside Police and intending to hand himself in, and he "did not want her to have the dog any more".
