SACRAMENTO (CBS13) — A man who pleaded guilty to fatally beating a dog during a dispute over medical marijuana was sentenced to 8 years in prison.

Johnae Hoyt, 33, approached his former neighbor Robert Burke in March 2010 and asked Burke to share his medical marijuana and “smoke him out,” Burke said.

Burke refused, and Hoyt grabbed a stick off Burke’s front porch and started swinging, forcing the victim to retreat inside his Oak Park home.

While Burke called 911, Hoyt turned his anger to the Chihuahua that was leashed in the home’s front yard.

3. And yet Michael Vick is being lauded as a hero these days

He served less than two years and that was for gambling, not torturing and executing dogs.

5. Careful...Vick has a very vociferous fan club in these parts. n/t
