There's a special place in hell for people like this.
A man convicted of animal cruelty for taping a dog's mouth shut was sentenced to two years in state jail on Wednesday.

The Labrador retriever named "Bull" had to be put to death after suffering a heat stroke in July.

In addition to the two-year sentence, a Denton County jury also fined Richard Swift, 43, of The Colony, $5,000. The two-year sentence was the maximum for the charge.

Investigators initially said the man taped the dog's mouth shut to prevent it from barking. Experts say taping a dog's mouth shut prevents the animal from panting, which helps it stay cool.
I hope Mr. Swift doesn't get too hot in his TDCJ cell when he's getting pounded in the ass.
