While the national media is focused on anti-NATO demonstrators in Chicago, there's another kind of protest going on in one of its suburbs. Convicted animal abuser Phillip Rinn, of Aurora, IL, recently plead guilty to beating his one-year-old Lab/shepherd mix, Magda, with a broom and breaking five of her teeth. He had previously served jail time in 1993 for chaining his German shepherd to his car, dragging him, then detaching the horribly injured dog so he could run over him and kill him. For that heinous crime, he only received 30 days in jail and 200 hours community service. Nearly 20 years later, the man is still abusing his pets and faces relatively stiffer penalties - up to three years in jail. Animal lovers have gathered outside the courthouse at each of his hearings to encourage the judge to give him the maximum punishment possible at his sentencing on May 31. If you're in the Chicago area and would like to participate, please contact On Angel's Wings executive director Jeanette Schulz through the nonprofit rescue's adoption center at (815) 356-8170.
