This probably gets dropped if they can’t prove he didn’t humanely kill them
Tampa news this evening explained that they taste similar to turkey and in many places are considered a nuisance animal. They were unable to find any laws he broke.

This isn't farmer John living off the land, it's a psychopath acting out vs animals, regardless of whether he's using them as food afterwards.
I don’t doubt he’s a psychopath, but this part of the article is written by someone that thinks poultry must just come from a factory:
quote:
The man “admitted to killing the bird by cutting the bird's neck out of spite, then bleeding it out, and then later eating the bird after cooking it on a frying pan,” the affidavit said.
That’s exactly how you kill chickens. Cut off their neck, let them bleed out, pluck them, put them in a frying pan.

I used to work with a guy in BR that raised peacocks as pets.
A guy on George O'Neal Rd had them in his yard.
They make an awful noise.

Haitians are eating the dogs and they're eating the cats. Now Florida man is eating the peacocks.

Why is this any different or more cruel?
Peacock is higher on the "cute" scale.

Da fuq? What's the difference if it was his chickens, rabbits, goats, etc. Just because I have 8 laying hens doesn't make it against the law that I harvest one that isn't laying eggs anymore. That's some bullshite right there.

My wife's grandfather on Kentucky had peacocks on his farm and ate them sometimes. I always thought it was strange, but never thought it to be cruel or illegal. They were his and he had them to protect his other animals from coyotes.

And why is there 4 dogs and 3 cats on the scale? Could they not find any other animals?

If you've ever heard these things during mating season you would give this guy a trophy.
One of my mom's neighbors has 3-4 that roam free, talk about annoying.

My fam use to chop heads off of the turkey for thanksgiving and Christmas family dinner/lunch. And then chickens when we had to many hatch or got mad at a rooster for attacking someone.
You chop the head off and let the thing go and it runs around everywhere bumping into stuff and kids running around, me and all my cousins from 2-10years old running around crazy with the things squirting blood everywhere lol
My thought is unless he actually tortured it, how tf can killing a bird that is your bird and then eating it be a crime.

Last sentence of the arrest report seems to think he did exactly that...

You actually have no idea if that's true, and you're saying it in defense of a recidivist violent offender
the person accused here has 0 reference to chopping off the heads either, just cutting 2 necks for spite. And that in no way means they did it correctly, like you'd bleed a chicken.

How do you torture a bird, any bird?
How do you (in Florida) torture a python? or a gator? (not a football question)

Axe, knife what's the difference?
From the University on Minn..

Home processing of poultry
Use a sharp knife to cut the bird's throat from the outside just behind the lower jaw. ... Hold the bird's head for a while until the bleeding and flopping stops
Are they advocating animal cruelty?
Just because he killed them to spite his neighbor doesn't mean he did it cruelly.
