Death Camp for Dogs


The woman pictured above is Sharon McDonough and she lives on Long Island. Authorities found the remains of 20 animals in her backyard. Evidently a lot of pets in the neighborhood have gone missing and it seems they may have ended up in Ms. McDonough's clutches.
"It was a concentration camp for the animals," the suspect's son, Douglas McDonough, said. "My sisters and me, we got the end of it, too."
Douglas is the one who tipped off the authorities about his mother but I don't know what he means about he and his sisters. Did their mother also cage and torture her children?
Long Island, New York is a very strange place. It was home to the woman who drove drunk the wrong way on the Taconic Parkway this summer. It's home to the teenagers who randomly beat an Ecuadorian immigrant to death a year ago. It's also where Margery Tannenbaum lives. You might remember her as posting a sexual ad on Craig's List listing the phone number of the 9-year-old her daughter had an argument with.
