Gone, but not forgotten...

I personally took each of these photos in St. Bernard Parish (New Orleans). These three are from Beauregard Middle School, where many dogs were mercilessly shot and killed in the wake of Hurricane Katrina. This tragic event remains unsolved, and the people responsible for murdering these animals still have not been brought to justice.In the foreground, milk bones are scattered across the floor, left behind by owners of the animals as the owners were forced to evacuate without their pets. Shortly after the people were evacuated, the dogs were all brutally shot. From the bullet wounds and the location of the animals, it is clear that the shootings were vicious, intentional and unnecessary. In the upper right corner of the photo, the body of a dog lies dead, still chained to the corner. Several bullet holes were found in its body.
This handwritten message reads, "In this room are 6 adult dogs & 4 puppies. Please save them! Kit"

The dogs were inside, all dead. Each had multiple bullet wounds. The puppies were still curled next to their mother's belly.
On this wall, the following is written: "There is one very nice dog in here. Please do not shoot her. Please find her a good home. Her name is "Angel"

Angel was also nearby, dead from bullet wounds. If you believe that there are no coincidences in this world, maybe "Angel" was born to shepherd her furry friends on to their next journey...

One important note: The area that this school was located in did NOT flood. The school was also several levels tall, and animals were found on upper levels, with plenty of food, blankets and ventilation sources.
