Welp, they found the dude.
| quote: | Sometime after midnight the morning Police arrested 18 year-old Tyler Weinman at a party in Coral Gables for the recent string of horrific cat killings that have plauged Cutler Bay and Palmetto Bay.
Weinman, who had attended Miami Palmetto Senior High, is being charged with 19 counts of animal cruelty, four counts of burglary, and 19 counts of improperly disposing of an animal body. True Crime Report points out that at most, the animal cruelty charges carry a punishment of a four-figure fine and five years in prison, though the burglary chargers may put him behind bars for longer.
Tyler had two MySpaces (a personal one, and one for music - no that's not his original compisition), a facebook page and was a member of the group "Catch the Cat Killer!" Not to be ridiculously speculative here, but it at least suggests he was aware of the media coverage and strong reaction. What part that might have played in his crime spree and if he enjoyed the reaction, we're not sure.
Tylers parents were divorced, and he lived with both - one in Cutler Bay and the other in Palmetto Bay, which explains the geographic reach of the crimes. Both houses had been under surveillance for weeks. Police were put on the trail thanks to community tips. At least four of the killings happened on the street where his mother lived.
Though, it hasn't been entirely ruled out he worked alone. At a press conference this morning police spoke like the terror had ended, but there's various reports out there that their may be more arrests to be made.
Weinman was arrested on May 29th for possession of cannabis. He had two previous arrests as a minor, but police can't release the details.
As for the reaction. Every other comments section we go to contains the occasional reference to the fact that Weinman is a Jewish last name, as well as the requisite "fag" or "homo" (for the record, it seems he had or has a long term girlfriend). A teenager butchering cats is enough reminder of the darkness that can lurk in humans for one day without some needless anti-semitism thrown in. |
