The National Rifle Association’s new boss, Doug Hamlin, was once involved in the “heinous” torture and killing of his fraternity house cat — in which its paws were cut off before it was strung up and set on fire, according to a disturbing report.
Hamlin, who was appointed CEO of the NRA earlier this year, pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor charge of animal cruelty over the sadistic killing when he was an undergraduate at the University of Michigan in December 1979, The Guardian reported Monday, citing details of the decades-old case.
The vile slaying unfolded when Hamlin and four of his fellow Alpha Delta Phi members apparently became upset that their fraternity house cat, BK, wouldn’t use a litterbox, according to local reports at the time.
