They're killing dogs in my town!!!

I live in a smaller community and the sheriffs office just issued a warning that they are investigated 23 dog murders in the area. Someone or people are going around either shooting dogs with pellet guns till they die or feeding them chicken bones soaked in antifreeze! Why did they let the # reach 23 dogs before doing anything?! They are also going around stealing dogs and cats. After the animals come up missing, they are never found. This is all 100% true because it was my aunt that works for the sheriffs office that called me and told me to watch my animals! I am legit terrified! My animals get left alone while I am at work. My fogs destroy my home if not watched so they out out in their dog run. They could easily be hurt!! 😢😢
