#MostEvil | Craig Lee Andrew Curtis, born 06/10/1984, formerly of Chapel Street, Newmarket and as at December 2019 of Dawes Lane, West Mersea, Colchester, Essex CO5 8HJ – strung up a Staffy puppy named Bruno by his collar and beat him to death with a baseball bat Violent drunk, woman beater, dog killer Craig Curtis Curtis strung six-month-old Bruno from his weightlifting bench after the pup urinated on the floor. Curtis apparently ‘went ballistic’ and battered the young dog with a bat, then put his lifeless body in his freezer before dumping him later in nearby woodland. A dog-walker found Bruno’s battered body wrapped in blood-stained sheets inside a black bin bag with blood around his nose and mouth and called the RSPCA. A post mortem revealed the puppy had suffered fractures to his skull and died after being struck around the head with a blunt instrument. Shockingly tests also revealed that Bruno was alive for a long period while the attack on him took place. Inspector Richard Lithgoe, who investigated the case, said: “This was easily the most shocking  case of cruelty I have ever seen. This is a horrendously violent man – I was so shocked at how the ferocious and brutal this attack was. “This poor young dog was victim to a senseless brutality and would have been in an extreme amount of pain. The worst part is he was alive when this attack took place and so would have suffered for a long, lingering, gruesome death.” Just weeks after attacking Bruno, Curtis stabbed his then partner during a drunken row and was jailed for 32 months in October 2012. Sentence:  jailed for 18 weeks for cruelty and banned from keeping dogs for life. Mirror Daily Mail Ipswich Star
