Around 100 protestors gathered in Santa Ana to voice their outrage against Alejandro Oliveros Acosta, who was arrested for suspected animal abuse involving at least a dozen cats. Following his arrest, where multiple carcasses were found, Acosta's bail was set at $20,000. The community held a vigil outside his home, demanding justice, many being neighbors whose pets had gone missing. Tensions escalated as protesters attempted to breach a fence at a relative's residence, leading to police intervention to maintain order during the demonstrations against Acosta's release.
Acosta was arrested on suspicion of felony animal abuse, and his bail was set at $20,000.
That he was released so quickly is a travesty.
Many of the protesters, Kirby said, were neighbors whose cats had gone missing.
An investigation into Acosta began after police received multiple reports over several weeks of a man attracting neighborhood cats... to his property.
