Published: January 25, 2008
HONOLULU - A grand jury indicted two former golf club employees on theft and animal cruelty charges after police said they butchered and ate a patron's pet dog.
Witnesses told Moanalua Golf Club officials they saw the workers load the German shepherd-Labrador mix, named Caddy, into a car and drive away at the end of their shift on Dec. 16.
The dog's owner, Frank Manuma, said the club had given him permission to bring 8-month-old Caddy while he played. The dog vanished after being left tied up near a maintenance shed, Manuma said.
The club fired the workers, and investigators later told Manuma the two men butchered and ate his pet.
An Oahu grand jury on Tuesday indicted Saturnino Palting, 58, and Nelson Domingo, 43, both of Kalihi. The felony charges are punishable by up to five years in prison and a $10,000 fine.
