Aussie woman avoids jail after ‘wicked’ abuse of a one-year-old puppy for chewing her stuff after she is caught on camera
- Perth woman Lani Beattie received a suspended jail sentence after being filmed strangling her puppy over destructive behaviour
- A bystander recorded the October 2025 incident involving one-year-old dog Roxy and alerted police and the RSPCA
- The case reflects Australia's prosecutorial response to documented animal cruelty with non-custodial sentencing
Lani Beattie, 23, was filmed by a passerby standing over 'lifeless' Roxy in the backyard of her Beckenham home on October 13 last year.
