Texas couple sentenced to prison after pit bulls killed 81-year-old man
A Texas couple was sentenced to more than a decade in prison each Friday after their pit bulls got loose and killed an 81-year-old man last year, the Bexar County District Attorney’s Office said.
Christian Moreno was sentenced to 18 years in prison and Abilene Schnieder was sentenced to 15 years in prison for the Feb. 24, 2023, mauling near their San Antonio home.
Ramon Najera, 81, was killed and his wife, Juanita Najera, was injured in the attack.
The dogs got loose and attacked the Najeras as they were running errands nearby, officials said.
“What happened to Mr. Najera was an unspeakable horror,” 226th District Court Judge Velia J. Meza said before imposing the sentence.
Firefighters who arrived on the scene saw a bloodied man being dragged around a corner by dogs, and the firefighters had to use pickaxes to fend off the animals, the city’s fire chief said at the time.
