Ms. Anzelmo said Romero is alleged to have stolen the dog Buddy, a German shepherd-blue heeler mix from people in Delta. He allegedly took the dog to the Colorado National Monument early Wednesday, tied the dog to his truck and dragged the dog. Paw prints in the snow were found to show Buddy at first walking, then running, then dragging, for 3 miles. A surveillance video showed a truck entering the monument at 2:18 am with a dog in the bed of the truck, it showed the same truck leaving at 2:30 with no dog. Witnesses said Romero said he was going to kill the dog, another said he saw Romero leave the residence with the dog.
Romero faces one count of aggravated cruelty towards animals. If convicted, the penalty is a maximum of three years in federal prison and a fine of $100,000, and one year of mandatory parole.
Anzelmo said she believes additional charges may be filed against Romero.
The goal of this petition is to see to it that Steven Clay Romero spends every single minute of those three years in federal prison, fined $100,000 and one year of mandatory parole.
