She was simply riding a bicycle past them and the dog broke loose from her. ran her down knocked her off and attacked her. He went for the neck. Horrifying
From what I understand the dog was on a leash but it broke free. Of course, we must wait for the trial so they can defend themselves. IF this is true, the will go a long way for their defense. No prior convictions for either of the two defendants. No complaints on record about either the Dog or the two accused. I'm told both surrendered themselves instead of law enforcement have ing to 'chase them down'. Chances are they will get some sort of probation and pay a fine. Of course the are open to lawsuit for medical bills the family is out but I don't see any prison time as this is a misdemeanor. Besides, 15,000 dollars bail for each. This isn't not serious enough for any prison sentence.
@@kathleenthomas1971"Things" happen?! That's BS. There was a death. So sick of people defending aggressive dogs. Pitbulls should be illegal to own.

there are no "dangerous" dogs, only very bad dog owners! it's always the owners that make the dogs behave badly. watch Cesar Millan videos, he proves it over and over, he's the dog whisperer.
Sadly it's South Carolina. They will be out on bond in a few days to a few weeks and will likely get probation since they are being charged with a random low level offense even though they acted with implied malice and caused someone to die. South Carolina's solution to sky high crime was a gun control bill that was disguised as a "constitutional cary bill" that puts extreme penalties for things like felon in possession of firearm and carrying a firearm in the wrong place (up to life without parole in some cases), there are people there serving life without parole for giving their friends marijuana near a school all while South Carolina has failed to pass bills cracking down on organized retail theft, underaged drinking, attempted murder (increasing penalties from 1-30 years to 10-to life without parole) and more.

It is time to get corrupt and feeble Governor Henry McMaster out of there and clean house in the entire South Carolina legislature leadership that has allowed situations like this to happen.

@@Salah522 Unfortunately, the pit bull whackos got the Miami Dade pit bull ban removed. I lived in Miami for a decade during the ban and never heard of any dog attacks. Didn't take long after removing the ban before mail carriers started getting mauled.
An apartment I lived in did allow dogs/cats, with the exception of pitbulls, rottweilers, german shepards etc., because they are considered aggressive breeds.
It’s not the dog! I’ve had pitbulls for almost 20 years and they are big babies! They all came from horrible conditions and completely thrive in a positive and loving environment!
It is my understanding that in many. many parts of this country homeowners cannot buy insurance if they own several listed breeds of canines. I wonder what the laws are for this county/city in South Carolina? (Never mind........it's the south...)
Nearly all homeowners/renters/condo policies exclude coverage (payment for damages and defense) for any type of animal bite/attack. The insurance industry learned long ago that most dog owners are not careful all of the time and dogs do what dogs do. BTW, animal owners can buy a specific type of insurance called "Animal Liability Insurance" which covers the damage any dog does and the legal costs for the owners. It will not keep owners out of jail. BUT, most dog owners don't buy this type of insurance policy.
People get around the Pit issue by going to a Vet and paying for a statement from a Vet saying it’s a Staffordshire Terrier. Those Vet’s will regret that when a few hundred dollars causes them to loose everything.
This is a tragedy for all concerned. This is a tragic situation for the family who lost their loved one and also for the people who owned the dog. I feel so sorry for all who are involved . My prayers go out to the woman who lost her life and for her family and friends. Everyone concerned needs our thoughts and prayers. Dogs that are known to be aggressive should not be allowed as pets.
Yes and most people that own vicious breeds do that. The poor dogs end up paying for it and too many lives have been as a result of the twisted ideas some pet owners possess
That is NOT true. Most pit bulls have wonderful pet owners until the DOG turns for absolutely no reason. Most of the time it’s on someone they know or actually live with. The dogs are dangerous, something sets them off and when they taste blood (even their own) it’s over.

I have raised, fostered & rescued for 30 years. (Mostly Pits)What you’re saying IS NOT TRUE! Pit Bulls are no different than any other dog. Their jaws do not “lock” & their temperament is no different. Dogs have to be made mean. People have them for the wrong reason! It’s always the fault of a human!😡
we owned a chow that we raised from a puppy, wouldnt hurt a fly, let baby kittens crawl all over him, until one day he snapped! dont know what happened , he became uncontrollably aggressive, we had to turn him over to animal services. it can happen like that , thank God he didnt hurt anyone because my husband took control immediately
She only started crying when she was told she was going to have to come up with a $15,000 bond (=10% down) and not be let out on her own PR. Sure she looked distressed before, who wouldn't, but the crying was for herself

FLORENCE - The owners of the dog that attacked and killed a 71-year old woman have been arrested and charged with owning a dangerous animal, the Florence Police Department announced. Florence residents Justin Conroy and Ashley Maclean were both taken into custody and transported to the Florence County Detention Center. They were charged with owning a dangerous animal that made an unprovoked attack causing bodily harm. The crime, a misdemeanor, is punishable by a maximum fine of $5,000 or a prison sentence of three years. This would be Maclean and Conroy's first offense. Neighbors reported on social media that the dog had caused problems before, but Florence Police Department Capt. Stephen Starling said the department had not previously received any calls related to the dog.
What breed of dog caused the death of the 71 year old victim? My prayers are with the family of that poor lady! UPDATE: the 71 year old was riding her bike when the pitbull broke free from the owner and attacked her,
The breed doesn’t matter. Dogs have to be made mean. It’s all the responsibility of the owner! Just as some people shouldn’t have children, some shouldn’t have animals!
@@sharoncruzen1942that’s is untrue. People like you just regurgitate the same statements over and over without recognizing there is nuance in everything. Dogs are still animals even though they are domesticated. Any dog has the potential to act out and many times it has nothing to do with how the owners have treated them. It just so happens when a “pitbull” attacks, the chances of extreme injury or death increase due to the physical characteristics of the dog. Their bite strength and stamina is nearly unmatched in the canine world. The dog could have been in fear, of what we may never know, but it could have been the reason for the attack. Owners can not remove every innate instinct of an animal. Chihuahuas attack, as well as beagles, terriers, Dobermans, etc….its just that the attacks typically aren’t deadly. This is a horrible situation but there is a high likelihood these owners did nothing to cause this dog to attack this poor lady.
@@jondra1693 Yes, every or any dog has the capacity to attack but the way they treated has everything to do with it barring some disease. Pitbulls are no more likely to than any other. They aren’t BORN TO ATTACK! The strength of a dog is due to their size & personality. They aren’t unmatched! It’s you who who seem to believe all the hype!
My granddaughter was attacked by a pit bull. She was the 3rd person in that neighborhood that was attacked. That dog was put down. We live in California.
This is why I keep my dogs well contained . Never off leash there isn't even a gate between my front yard and my backyard and the backyard is always chain locked . You are responsible for your pets whatever they do .
I can hear other Pitbull owners in Florence, SC say without being there telling their friends and family that Florence, SC is the place to be if you want to own a Pitbull. Their families and friends will say to the Pitbull owners why is that? You can get in trouble for owning a dangerous animal if it attacks someone. The Pitbull owners will say yes, I'll be arrested and have to go to court, but I will only get probation as long as it doesn't happen again, I'm good! No justice for the dog attack victims!
Who was the camera person. Extremely annoying. Keep it still and just put the focus on the whole court room. Instead of moving it from person to person. Good Grief, couldn't watch it all. So freaking annoying.
I adopted a blind German Shepard, and he was one of the meanest, toughest, and careless dogs you've ever been around. Even though he is blind, his hearing and nose were like his eyes, because besides running into some things every couple hrs you could barely tell. He couldn't be around kids, or other dogs because he would have killed another dog, and bit a child, and him being over 100 lbs, he was a menace. But after a yr he is the nicest, and most loving dog you could meet, You gotta teach a dog how to love, and to be nice. We have showed him so much love, and taught him that he was here to stay, and him being a smart breed he thrived with us, I have trained dogs, but I'm not the dog whisperer, but my point to the story, is showing a dog plenty of love, and teaching the dog boundaries is always a direct reflection of how the dog is going to behave, and being a unfit owner is the reason dogs attack other dogs, and humans. People get dogs for the wrong reasons, because they're cute, or whatever, and then the dog grows up to be a 80 lb Pitt with no direction, or boundaries, and the owners are too cheap, or broke to get them help. Its never the dogs fault, its the scumbag owners. This lady can have that baby face, and fake emotion all she wants, but its their fault this happened
Wow, that lawyer is gorgeous! In all seriousness, having had dogs my entire life, they can be unpredictable. I don't agree that it's fair to hold the dog owners responsible for the actions committed by an animal whose minds they could not possibly read. These people don't seem to be career criminals. It's tragic that the 71-year old woman lost her life, but it should be considered an accident and any penalties should be set accordingly.
Own a pit bull come home after work and find out you may go to prison, and you weren't even home at the time of the crime of serious negligence. Those dogs aren't worth that risk.
Judge denied PR bond based on "the seriousness" of the case. Never heard that as a basis for determining bond, but rather that bond is based on 1) consideration for safety to the public and 2) flight risk. Interesting.
"seriousness of the case" could be very similar to "consideration for safety to the public". I've certainly heard judges use that phrase when determining bond, bail, remand, etc.

To all you lovers of dangerous breeds that keep using the same tired, "it's all in the training" excuse... Your logic is akin to keeping a loaded gun in the house and insisting your "trained" children will never go near it. You and I both know that the risk is ALWAYS there. Unfortunately, with a dangerous dog, you're not only risking your family, you're risking other's loved ones as well, as in the case of this poor victim. Because of their unpredictability (uncontrolled risk), such breeds should be outlawed. So many of the aggressive breeds are owned by people that get some juvenile ego boost thinking their dog makes them look "tough". With ALL the available safer breeds for people to choose from, I'm not buying that most pitbull owners just like the looks and personailty of this particular breed. It's a dopey ego thing, whether they'll admit it or not. They own this dog to compensate for some personailty defect they can't address in a healthier way. It makes them feel "powerful" to own a powerful, dangerous dog. At some point, after the American public has reached its saturation point with these senseless attacks and tragic deaths, a law will be written, and aggressive breeds will be no more. People will be able to walk their neighborhoods, past every home, without fear of being attacked by such dogs. Ok, let the angry replies flow.
I only just ran onto this case & don’t yet know the details, but I just want to thank you for your comments regarding dangerous dogs. I’m assuming these were Pit Bulls maybe. If you’re familiar with statistics on the number of deaths caused by this particular breed then you know indeed how sad the problem is with irresponsible dog owners who believe “their” dog/dogs would never bite, harm, let alone kill a baby, a child, the elderly…& yes, it happens in households that the “big lovable lap dog” turns on the owner as well. I just want to add that “all dog breeds” can turn on a dime, provoked or unprovoked. A leash law was enacted in my state after our 5 yr old daughter was killed by three “family pets” two houses from ours. Not Pit Bulls…They forgot their manners one day & now we get to take flowers to the cemetery. I’m so tired of dog owners complaining about the leash laws. “My dog should be allowed to run free,” they say. “My dog has been trained & you don’t need to worry,” they say. Again, thanks for speaking out on this awful situation. I’ll try to find out more about this case in particular.
The attorney’s dress is disrespectful to the court. Too short, sleeveless and she needs to be more professional. Cute outfit if going out with friends.
I agree that dress is not appropriate court attire. That dress is more like if she was going to the beach. Even a school teacher that I had in middle school would never ever even dress like that. She always had long sleeves, her dresses and skirts were always below the knees, never any slit openings and they always had pockets (she always had her hands in her pockets). I understand about the hot and humid weather in the summer time in certain areas but always remember that a good appearance makes a difference.
This is why I have 7 foot steel fencing to keep my dogs in. And two fences several yards apart one behind the other as a failsafe. I do feel for them in a way. You can tell they are mortified and ashamed. It doesn't change the fact that they kept dangerous dogs but wow how your life can change in a second
We live agricultural in a rural mountain hollow. We have livestock and own Great Pyrenees dogs. We added a livestock hot wire to our fencing as one of our dogs can jump 5.5’ and clear the fencing. He only got out once, and we addressed the issue immediately. We also put signs up at our gates, as if someone puts their hands over the fence or attempts to open the gate (which is chained and padlocked) they will protect their charges and attack. It is what they are bred for. If you meet me down the road from our house our dogs will approach you with wagging tails and want pets. They protect ONLY their house, land and animals. However, I have never allowed any of our 4 Pyrenees access to any of our 10 grandchildren. We take our dog’s capabilities very seriously! The potential for just one accident is more than we are willing to wager. We are responsible dog owners! This is such a tragic situation. I view owners who keep dangerous dogs as an extension of their own ego. They use a protective dog to make them feel more powerful in their own minds.
Their attorney should be jailed for her inappropriate dress!!!! She is dressed for after-hours bar hopping😂😂😂. Seeing her attire, I would immediately ask for a new attorney due to her unprofessional dress. She definitely knows better but chose poorly!
It has been said this is a bond hearing. “My guess” is she was probably just working in office attire and was called over to this bond hearing. No time to go home and change into what some people in these comments would like to see her dressed in. I guess they want her to be in a dark polyester blend suit on a 99 degree day in SC with super high humidity. The dress material is colorful. It is a normal summer office dress. However, It is NOT a “Sun Dress”. It does not have straps, low cut etc. She appears to be a somewhat taller than ave female. I am sure most dresses are going to hit this Female Attorney a little shorter than on a women of ave height, which is 5’4”
Everyone is saying "child". It was a 71-year-old woman. Prayers for her loved ones.
I think because it's normally a child that is attacked. This video gives zero background info in the description.
There was a little boy killed recently by 2 pits I think they got these attacks mixed up

@@Salah522 Unfortunately, the pit bull whackos got the Miami Dade pit bull ban removed. I lived in Miami for a decade during the ban and never heard of any dog attacks. Didn't take long after removing the ban before mail carriers started getting mauled.
An apartment I lived in did allow dogs/cats, with the exception of pitbulls, rottweilers, german shepards etc., because they are considered aggressive breeds.
It’s not the dog! I’ve had pitbulls for almost 20 years and they are big babies! They all came from horrible conditions and completely thrive in a positive and loving environment!

When are insurance companies going to STOP insuring properties that house pit pulls? Too many of them are raised by incompetents.
It is my understanding that in many. many parts of this country homeowners cannot buy insurance if they own several listed breeds of canines. I wonder what the laws are for this county/city in South Carolina? (Never mind........it's the south...)
Nearly all homeowners/renters/condo policies exclude coverage (payment for damages and defense) for any type of animal bite/attack. The insurance industry learned long ago that most dog owners are not careful all of the time and dogs do what dogs do. BTW, animal owners can buy a specific type of insurance called "Animal Liability Insurance" which covers the damage any dog does and the legal costs for the owners. It will not keep owners out of jail. BUT, most dog owners don't buy this type of insurance policy.
People get around the Pit issue by going to a Vet and paying for a statement from a Vet saying it’s a Staffordshire Terrier. Those Vet’s will regret that when a few hundred dollars causes them to loose everything.

This is a tragedy for all concerned. This is a tragic situation for the family who lost their loved one and also for the people who owned the dog. I feel so sorry for all who are involved . My prayers go out to the woman who lost her life and for her family and friends. Everyone concerned needs our thoughts and prayers. Dogs that are known to be aggressive should not be allowed as pets.
These two wanted their dog to be dangerous as to make people to fear them.
Yes and most people that own vicious breeds do that. The poor dogs end up paying for it and too many lives have been as a result of the twisted ideas some pet owners possess
That is NOT true. Most pit bulls have wonderful pet owners until the DOG turns for absolutely no reason. Most of the time it’s on someone they know or actually live with. The dogs are dangerous, something sets them off and when they taste blood (even their own) it’s over.

we owned a chow that we raised from a puppy, wouldnt hurt a fly, let baby kittens crawl all over him, until one day he snapped! dont know what happened , he became uncontrollably aggressive, we had to turn him over to animal services. it can happen like that , thank God he didnt hurt anyone because my husband took control immediately

How tragic. This family will never be the same. This court hearing feels very informal. They are in regular clothes, courtroom looks like a conference room. Did they invite the grieving family?
From what I understand, the judge said right in the beginning that the funeral was being held at the same time as this court appearance.

FLORENCE - The owners of the dog that attacked and killed a 71-year old woman have been arrested and charged with owning a dangerous animal, the Florence Police Department announced.
Florence residents Justin Conroy and Ashley Maclean were both taken into custody and transported to the Florence County Detention Center.
They were charged with owning a dangerous animal that made an unprovoked attack causing bodily harm. The crime, a misdemeanor, is punishable by a maximum fine of $5,000 or a prison sentence of three years.
This would be Maclean and Conroy's first offense.
Neighbors reported on social media that the dog had caused problems before, but Florence Police Department Capt. Stephen Starling said the department had not previously received any calls related to the dog.
What was the breed type?
Also where’s Florence? I immediately think Italy but they definitely don’t have the right accents. 😆

The breed doesn’t matter. Dogs have to be made mean. It’s all the responsibility of the owner! Just as some people shouldn’t have children, some shouldn’t have animals!
@@sharoncruzen1942that’s is untrue. People like you just regurgitate the same statements over and over without recognizing there is nuance in everything. Dogs are still animals even though they are domesticated. Any dog has the potential to act out and many times it has nothing to do with how the owners have treated them. It just so happens when a “pitbull” attacks, the chances of extreme injury or death increase due to the physical characteristics of the dog. Their bite strength and stamina is nearly unmatched in the canine world. The dog could have been in fear, of what we may never know, but it could have been the reason for the attack. Owners can not remove every innate instinct of an animal. Chihuahuas attack, as well as beagles, terriers, Dobermans, etc….its just that the attacks typically aren’t deadly.
This is a horrible situation but there is a high likelihood these owners did nothing to cause this dog to attack this poor lady.
@@jondra1693 Yes, every or any dog has the capacity to attack but the way they treated has everything to do with it barring some disease. Pitbulls are no more likely to than any other. They aren’t BORN TO ATTACK! The strength of a dog is due to their size & personality. They aren’t unmatched! It’s you who who seem to believe all the hype!

I can hear other Pitbull owners in Florence, SC say without being there telling their friends and family that Florence, SC is the place to be if you want to own a Pitbull. Their families and friends will say to the Pitbull owners why is that? You can get in trouble for owning a dangerous animal if it attacks someone. The Pitbull owners will say yes, I'll be arrested and have to go to court, but I will only get probation as long as it doesn't happen again, I'm good! No justice for the dog attack victims!

I adopted a blind German Shepard, and he was one of the meanest, toughest, and careless dogs you've ever been around. Even though he is blind, his hearing and nose were like his eyes, because besides running into some things every couple hrs you could barely tell. He couldn't be around kids, or other dogs because he would have killed another dog, and bit a child, and him being over 100 lbs, he was a menace. But after a yr he is the nicest, and most loving dog you could meet, You gotta teach a dog how to love, and to be nice. We have showed him so much love, and taught him that he was here to stay, and him being a smart breed he thrived with us, I have trained dogs, but I'm not the dog whisperer, but my point to the story, is showing a dog plenty of love, and teaching the dog boundaries is always a direct reflection of how the dog is going to behave, and being a unfit owner is the reason dogs attack other dogs, and humans. People get dogs for the wrong reasons, because they're cute, or whatever, and then the dog grows up to be a 80 lb Pitt with no direction, or boundaries, and the owners are too cheap, or broke to get them help. Its never the dogs fault, its the scumbag owners. This lady can have that baby face, and fake emotion all she wants, but its their fault this happened

Wow, that lawyer is gorgeous! In all seriousness, having had dogs my entire life, they can be unpredictable. I don't agree that it's fair to hold the dog owners responsible for the actions committed by an animal whose minds they could not possibly read. These people don't seem to be career criminals. It's tragic that the 71-year old woman lost her life, but it should be considered an accident and any penalties should be set accordingly.
Own a pit bull come home after work and find out you may go to prison, and you weren't even home at the time of the crime of serious negligence. Those dogs aren't worth that risk.
Judge denied PR bond based on "the seriousness" of the case. Never heard that as a basis for determining bond, but rather that bond is based on 1) consideration for safety to the public and 2) flight risk. Interesting.

Why do people want an ugly , dangerous dog??
To all you lovers of dangerous breeds that keep using the same tired, "it's all in the training" excuse...
Your logic is akin to keeping a loaded gun in the house and insisting your "trained" children will never go near it. You and I both know that the risk is ALWAYS there. Unfortunately, with a dangerous dog, you're not only risking your family, you're risking other's loved ones as well, as in the case of this poor victim. Because of their unpredictability (uncontrolled risk), such breeds should be outlawed.
So many of the aggressive breeds are owned by people that get some juvenile ego boost thinking their dog makes them look "tough". With ALL the available safer breeds for people to choose from, I'm not buying that most pitbull owners just like the looks and personailty of this particular breed. It's a dopey ego thing, whether they'll admit it or not. They own this dog to compensate for some personailty defect they can't address in a healthier way. It makes them feel "powerful" to own a powerful, dangerous dog.
At some point, after the American public has reached its saturation point with these senseless attacks and tragic deaths, a law will be written, and aggressive breeds will be no more. People will be able to walk their neighborhoods, past every home, without fear of being attacked by such dogs.
Ok, let the angry replies flow.
I only just ran onto this case & don’t yet know the details, but I just want to thank you for your comments regarding dangerous dogs. I’m assuming these were Pit Bulls maybe. If you’re familiar with statistics on the number of deaths caused by this particular breed then you know indeed how sad the problem is with irresponsible dog owners who believe “their” dog/dogs would never bite, harm, let alone kill a baby, a child, the elderly…& yes, it happens in households that the “big lovable lap dog” turns on the owner as well.
I just want to add that “all dog breeds” can turn on a dime, provoked or unprovoked. A leash law was enacted in my state after our 5 yr old daughter was killed by three “family pets” two houses from ours. Not Pit Bulls…They forgot their manners one day & now we get to take flowers to the cemetery. I’m so tired of dog owners complaining about the leash laws. “My dog should be allowed to run free,” they say. “My dog has been trained & you don’t need to worry,” they say. Again, thanks for speaking out on this awful situation. I’ll try to find out more about this case in particular.
The attorney’s dress is disrespectful to the court. Too short, sleeveless and she needs to be more professional. Cute outfit if going out with friends.
Not court attire for sure! I’m surprised she got away with wearing that dress.😊
That day and in that town the temperature was 99 degrees and 75% humidity. Give that lovely looking woman a break. Focus on the criminals.
I agree that dress is not appropriate court attire. That dress is more like if she was going to the beach. Even a school teacher that I had in middle school would never ever even dress like that. She always had long sleeves, her dresses and skirts were always below the knees, never any slit openings and they always had pockets (she always had her hands in her pockets). I understand about the hot and humid weather in the summer time in certain areas but always remember that a good appearance makes a difference.

But it was just a puppy and wanted to play! 🐶
They became their dog.
We live agricultural in a rural mountain hollow. We have livestock and own Great Pyrenees dogs. We added a livestock hot wire to our fencing as one of our dogs can jump 5.5’ and clear the fencing. He only got out once, and we addressed the issue immediately. We also put signs up at our gates, as if someone puts their hands over the fence or attempts to open the gate (which is chained and padlocked) they will protect their charges and attack. It is what they are bred for. If you meet me down the road from our house our dogs will approach you with wagging tails and want pets. They protect ONLY their house, land and animals. However, I have never allowed any of our 4 Pyrenees access to any of our 10 grandchildren. We take our dog’s capabilities very seriously! The potential for just one accident is more than we are willing to wager. We are responsible dog owners! This is such a tragic situation. I view owners who keep dangerous dogs as an extension of their own ego. They use a protective dog to make them feel more powerful in their own minds.

It has been said this is a bond hearing. “My guess” is she was probably just working in office attire and was called over to this bond hearing. No time to go home and change into what some people in these comments would like to see her dressed in. I guess they want her to be in a dark polyester blend suit on a 99 degree day in SC with super high humidity. The dress material is colorful. It is a normal summer office dress. However, It is NOT a “Sun Dress”. It does not have straps, low cut etc. She appears to be a somewhat taller than ave female. I am sure most dresses are going to hit this Female Attorney a little shorter than on a women of ave height, which is 5’4”
