In Spain, animal abuse and cruelty laws are no nearly as strict as in other developed countries in the world. The Spanish Criminal Code dictates that in cases like this, the harshest sentencing the woman could receive is a mere year and a half sentence in prison.

Doctors have identified many cases in which psychopaths often begin with animals before moving on to other victims.
