Patrick Frazee murder hearing: 'Bludgeoning of cow' allegations not admissible at trial
SABBM:
Prosecutors talked with someone who claimed Frazee previously bludgeoned a cow with an object resembling a bat, 4th Judicial District Attorney Dan May said during the hearing.
Prosecutors also asked to air one person’s concerns about the safety of children around Frazee.
Sells quickly dismissed those motions — saying they would unjustly turn the jury against Frazee.
“I just don’t think that’s relevant to this case,” Sells said.

What the Sells.
I could not disagree more with the judge's opinion that PF's prior violent and abusive treatment of animals is irrelevant.
These incidents directly speak to PF's propensity for violence against living, breathing, sensate beings.
It's one thing to kick a tire, or to punch a pillow.
It's entirely another to punch a cow or take a rasp to a horse and whatever other vicious attacks he's made on defenseless creatures.
He has a history of violence.
That's relevant.
