Crazy Cat Lady and Giant Pig Balls

Animal hoarders are just plain nuts, and stories such as this are usually quite sad. 

 

But when you have a story that involves giant swollen pig testicles- well, I get the urge to blog it.

From Local6.com here, along with a video:

A Central Florida woman was arrested Wednesday on felony animal cruelty charges after officials said they found a zoo of malnourished and diseased animals in filthy conditions.

Joey Lynn Mendolia, 51, was charged with animal cruelty, abandonment and animals in distress after Palm Bay police and Brevard County Animal Control officials served a warrant at about 2 p.m.

According to officials, about 30 cats — some of which are malnourished and have leukemia or AIDS — a couple of dogs, a dead kitten and a potbelly pig with enlarged testicles were taken from the home. 

Officers said the pig was so neglected that his testicles were enlarged to the size of a basketball.  Veterinarians determined that the pig needed to be euthanized.

Relatively speaking, 30 cats made this woman an amateur hoarder.  Most crazy cat ladies get up to 90 before neighbors complain about the smell.  I’m glad that cities identify such animal abusers early and arrest them early too.  The crazy lady yelled at the cops that she loved her little babies.

    Among all the false statements. There were only 6 cats. Moreover, there was no veterinarian, it was an evil, reckless street patrol cop Dawn Taplin of the Palm Bay Police who roped, dragged,and killed Porkchop.

    I guess it takes the fun out of the story when the truth is found. This story went on national news and every single item reported was false.

    One of the disturbing things that every citizen should be questioning is: If Dawn Taplin of the Palm Bay Police is able to make-up and falsify evidence, than how corrupt is the police department?

    Her evil recklessness was able to kill a family pet, so who is to prevent her from killing an innocent child, or victim? And is she able to “frame” anyone by deceit? Has corruption grown to such a degree that no one questions truth?

    Remember, Dawn Taplin’s public file is still missing. We requested it in writing and the Palm Bay police have yet to release it.

    Every statement Palm Bay Police street cop Dawn Taplin made of Joey is fictitious, and out right false. One would think the Palm Bay Police Department uses a Code of Ethics, but obviously not.

    (1.) There was no veterinarian. Dawn Taplin in her police report impersonated a veterinarian; it was her, and her alone that said Porkchop was sick. It was her decision to rope, drag and killed Porkchop.

    (2.) There was no mistreatment. Joey had her two dogs taken to an independent veterinarian for a formal evaluation. The veterinarian office and Vet considered it an outrage that she was accused of cruelty. Her dogs were thoroughly examined with documentation for a formal hearing. The veterinarian filed a complete examination report, which they support showing no mistreatment, no malnutrition, and no signs of neglect.

    (3.) Dawn wrote on the police report that Joey’s house had no air. This is where Taplin begins to create bizarre narratives. Fact: Joey had a new air conditioning system installed into her house a month earlier. The physical evidence of the unit, the witnesses inside the house is enough to discredit her allegation.

    Taplin made a mockery of everyone from Brevard Animal Services. Animal Services did not initiate any action against Joey. On national news serious journalist reported testicles as big as basketballs. Preposterous! The Director of Animal Services was made out to be an absurd fool.

    Taplin implicated Palm Bay Hospital: the doctors, nurses, and staff. Taplin implied they were dirty. And medical facilities were filthy and germs infested. Dawn Taplin necessitated alarmed and panic among patients. Taplin unnerved critically ill patients with undue stress fearing that they were being treated by unclean people. Among many things, Taplin personally owes Palm Bay Hospital, employees, and patients a public apology.

    Dawn Taplin dishonored the professionals of Veterinary Medicine. When she impersonation a Vet and broadcasted on national TV that: the pig was to sick to care for. Her dim-witted remark should have shot-up red flags to everyone listening.

    No professional specializing in veterinary care would utter such rubbish. Remember real professionals in Veterinary Medicine are extensively educated, rigorously tested, and arduously trained. They are skilled in: Anesthesia, Cardiology, Clinical Immunology, Clinical Laboratory, Diagnostic Parasitology, Emergency Services, Ophthalmology, Pharmacology, and Radiology. They are skilled in: Endoscopy, Thorascopy, and Cystoscopy procedures, just to name a few. Moreover an Animal Emergency and Critical Care Center is equipped with multi-million dollar diagnostic, testing, and monitoring equipment. It is nonsense to tolerate any of the malicious deceit that Dawn Taplin and the Palm Bay Police created. The Animal Emergency and Critical Care Center of Brevard is one of the finest establishments of its kind, and can care for animals. Again Dawn Taplin is a fraud.

  • So they killed the pig? And how do you really feel about officer Dawn Taplin? And what did the courts say about Joey?

  • Sandra

    Yes, they killed the pig. That was the intent.

    This was all planned by “Dawn Taplin” she wanted “Porkchop” killed. There was no consideration about Porkchop living; the Palm Bay Police intended from the start to kill Porkchop.

    In fact a rescue group was trying to intervene and get custody of Porkchop and the police would not stop and went ahead with the killing.

    The Palm Bay Police killing the pig was deliberate and calculated. Look once more at the video, where they were dragging Porkchop by his little feet. At that point Animal Control were pulling the muscles from the skeletal bones. They were ripping Porkchop’s internal organs apart. At no point was it the police dempartment’s intention to keep Porkchop alive. Make this very clear: DAWIN TAPLIN had it planned from the start that she was going to kill Porkchop!!!

    Dawn Taplin, what I’ve uncovered is a “crackpot,” she creates attention. The creation of putting this on network news was her idea. Another strange twist to this story is that Dawn Taplin lived only 2 blocks away from Joey’s house. Taplin lived with her long time companion Tina Hensel another cop. And my investigation brings up all kinds of strange occurrences associated with Dawn Taplin, amazingly Tina Hensel police car exploded in 2006. How very stange.
    Florida Cruisers Pulled Off Street after Two Explode: “The flames were just coming up, just as we were hearing the big bang,” said Officer Tina Hensel. Hensel said she never expected her police cruiser’s engine would become a flame thrower of sorts earlier this week. “It was being fueled by fire, so the flames were distinctly red. You could tell there was an accelerant,” she said.
    Your question: “And how do you really feel about officer Dawn Taplin?”

    My answer: Publicly and very clearly: Dawn Taplin is despicable and evil. I feel she is a danger to the community and a disgrace to public service. I have no doubt that she will once again hurt someone innocent. She has shown a pattern of misconduct, she is a liar, a fraud, and an imposter.

    Her public record is still missing. She is not “not” a detective, as she so often claims. She should be expelled and impeached from law enforcement and civil duty. I would like her to face charges of misconduct and fraud.

    How can I say this? “Wake up people!” Where has common sense gone? Porkchop had a happy, loving home in sunny Florida. He slept under Australian pine in his little home. He feared no one, because he was loved and never knew hardship. He was retired and harmed no one. Joey lives on the farthest corner of Palm Bay where cows roam, horses and goats are in pastures and chickens are in backyard “fact.” Palm Bay use to be a very rural area, it’s only been in the last few years that development has taken over. Palm Bay is a mix of country and small time city.

    Well the court system is in a pickle. What to do? The city cares nothing about animal. The arresting officer is a proven “IMPOSTER and FRAUD.” Palm Bay Police said they dispatched 5 enforcement personnel at the salaries stated:

    Don Smith-Sergeant at a salary of 26.00 dollars an hour
    Amy Nation at a salary of 20.00 dollars an hour
    Dawn Taplin at a salary of 20.00 dollars an hour
    Clendinin-CS Tech at 17 dollars an hour
    Carter CS Tech at 17.00 dollars an hour

    The city of Palm Bay say’s they spent thousands of dollars, on the killing of Porkchop. Brevard Animal services said they dispatched 14 Animal Control workers:

    Craig Engelson-Director
    Kathy Beatson-Asst. Director
    Robert Brown-Captain
    Correen Ferrante-Sergeant
    Christopher Robinson-Cruelty Investigator
    Kevin Earley-Outreach Officer
    Roger Thievierge-Officer (who attacked me and tried to run me down with his truck on October 26, 2008)
    Brian Figueroa-Officer
    Steve Anderson-Cruelty Investigator
    Carla Mercer-Officer
    Denise Karlton Officer
    Michael Healy-Corporal
    Gary Nicholes
    Bobby Brown

  • An update from Sandra:

    Dear Pat:

    I just wanted to give you an update of some of the results of the “killing of Porkchop” the family potbelly pig.

    The “killing of the family pet” was orchestrated by the City Manager of Palm Bay, Florida: Lee Feldman, who used despicable measure to (in his mind) rid the city of the rural lifestyle that was once Palm Bay. Lee Feldman is known for paying people off (especially the police) to do underhanded and dishonest things. This incident had nothing to do with animal cruelty AT ALL! Porkchop was a 14 year old potbelly pig. Everything else in this story is false and made-up. When the “real truth” came out, because the neighbors spoke-out, friends, and people who knew the truth, they all came out in protest of this despicable act by the Palm Bay Police to kill an innocent family pet.

    • Dawn Taplin, PBPD resigned from the Palm Bay Police December 2007 is disgrace.
    • Three of the original Palm Bay City Councilmembers have lost their election and sicne replaced – a( lot to do with me! I personally got them out.)
    • The Veterinary who killed Porkchop didn’t know Porkchop was a family pet and that the so-called authorities lied to her. She is discussed by the whole thing and doesn’t like being reminded of it. In fact, I ran into her at Wal-mark and reminded her of what she had done. She ran away like a cockroach!
    • Craig the Director of the Brevard Animal Control was transferred out of Animal Control and demoted. And 3 Animals Control agents of that incident also were forced out. Moreover, Animal Control was remanaged.
    • Brevard Country fired the County Manager and hired a new one: Mr Tipton.
    Even though I say this, it still is not enough. Lee Feldman hasn’t yet come to justice for this act. And the general population doesn’t know it was all a hoax by the city to kill the pig. Likewise, there are a lot of us that know the truth. I wish you would print a follow-up to this story and add the REAL truth.

    Sincerely,
    Sandra

  • Sandra,
    Its been three years, and it was an old pig with giant balls. Let it go. Sounds like you may also have some issues with compulsion and I hope you have received some counseling over all of this.
