On June 14th, 62 year old Thomas Foley of Worcester was walking his dog, when Lily the cat (who recently gave birth to a litter), came at his dog and he was scratched in the process. On June 19th, Mr. Foley walked his dog back down Dupuis Ave and allegedly beat 7lbs Lily of the Tuttle household to death in front of a group of children. Mr. Foley has made claims that he was acting in self defense... against a 7lbs cat The horrific actions of that afternoon are only the beginning. Because Mr. Foley is the son of Worcester Police Officer, charges against him were not filed until there was a sign of community uproar. Mr. Foley has since hired the same defense team Anthony Scola used to evade his murder charge and they have asked that felony charges be filed against the cat owner, since Lily struck first. Please help us make sure Thomas Foley gets what he deserves - the max! Under chapter 272, the maximum penalty for animal cruelty is 5 years. Don't you think beating a cat to death in front of children is as bad as it gets

The momentum behind this fight is proof that this city is finally waking up to the corruption shielding Thomas Foley. We have forced the authorities to look at this case while they desperately try to protect one of their own. This is only the start of the pressure we are putting on the people enabling this monster.

Total BS that he thinks he can hide behind his dad being a cop. Everyone is equal under the law. Give him the 5 years.

What a coward. It was a 7lb cat not a lion. He needs to pay for what he did to that poor thing in front of kids.

Ridiculous that he thinks he can blame the owners. He killed a defenceless animal because he was mad about a scratch. Lock him up.

My heart breaks for those kids having to see that. This man is dangerous and clearly has anger issues if he resorts to violence like this.
