Evidently cat killer veterinarian, Kristen Lindsey, isn’t merely cruel by chance -- she seems to have genetically inherited the life-threatening condition from one or both of her parents.
Authorities are still probing the murder of the domestic tabby who the embattled animal doc confesses she shot through the back of the head last week with a bow and arrow, allegedly after first baiting and trapping it.
According to Lindsey’s mother Becky, both she and husband Jack were present at the time their homicidal offspring committed the heartless criminal act, and happily “saw it all go down!”
Even worse, though, is that Becky Lindsey is the one who snapped her ignominious daughter’s Facebook photo of the gruesome kill; on the now-defunct social media account boasting, “I took the picture!”
That’s important because, according to police, mama Lindsey’s online confession, plus her bizarre assurances as to the damning photo’s authenticity, are all they actually need to prosecute Kristen Lindsey for animal cruelty and related offenses.
Dr. Lindsey’s psychotic crime and her stunning lack of remorse and conscience about it have shocked millions, making her an infamous internet-sensation virtually overnight.
The recently fired vet is eating major crow today, after additionally bragging in her deleted Facebook account, “I did not lose my job. Lol. Psshh. Like someone would get rid of me. I'm awesome!"
Her less than awesome doctoring is now the subject of scrutiny by the Texas medical licensing board as well as the university where Lindsey earned her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine, which, just like the animal clinic she used to work for, has also distanced itself.
In fact, the dean of the College of Veterinary Medicine and Biomedical Sciences at Colorado State was so appalled, he personally sent a letter to students, faculty and staff there in order to “strongly decry” Lindsey’s “grotesque actions.”
The esteemed Texas Veterinary Medical Association has also weighed in this week, saying her “actions directly violate the veterinarian’s oath taken to use his or her ‘scientific knowledge and skills for the benefit of society through the protection of animal health and welfare, the prevention and relief of animal suffering, the conservation of animal resources, the promotion of public health and the advancement of medical knowledge’.”
“We are saddened and disturbed by the unfortunate actions of this individual,” TVMA added, “This conduct is not reflective of the veterinary profession or of the veterinarians who strive to embody the words of the veterinarian’s oath every day.”
Amen.
