A Charleston man who fed meat-wrapped razor blades to his neighbor's four dogs will spend one to three years in prison.

John F. Hively was sentenced Wednesday in Kanawha County Circuit Court after pleading guilty to one count of felony animal cruelty. In exchange for his February plea, three other counts were dropped.

According to a criminal complaint, all four dogs suffered cuts in their mouths in June 2005. One dog had a razor blade in its stomach and had to have surgery.

Sheriff's deputies found razor blades and rubber gloves with meat on them in Hively's trash.

WHSV Poll
A committee in the House of Delegates has sent a bill to the House floor that would allow private, faith-based adoption agencies to discriminate against prospective parents based on their sexual orientation. Would you support this?

Yes, I think if it is a private organization it's okay.
No, there should be no discrimination.
It should depend on a case by case basis.
