I understand that couples break up. Relationships don't always last forever. Hopefully, when couples split, they can still be kind and friendly to each other. Unfortunately, that is not always the case. A man from Portland was so upset that his girlfriend broke up with him that he killed her pet. The girls beloved bright purple Betta fish "DeLorean" was found on the floor with a knife stabbed into her body. The X boyfriend pleaded guilty and was charged with animal abuse and domestic assault. Additionally, the girl wants him to pay for a memorial tattoo of Delorean. A judge ruled that he did not have to pay for the tattoo, but he has to do two years of probation and stay away from the women. He can have future contact with fish though. I'm glad that Jerry would never do anything to hurt me (or Chip or Chimmie.) He even got teary eyed when our fish Pongo and Purdy died of natural causes.
