Ohio woman sentenced to 2 years in jail for siccing her pit bulls on a 6-year old girl, yelling ‘your kids shouldn’t have f*cked with me and my dogs’
“She called two dogs to attack four little girls who were out front. My 6-year-old, mauled by two of them while she stood there on her front porch watching,” the father testified.
A woman has been sentenced to two years in jail on charges of child endangerment and her pit bulls will be euthanized after they mauled a six-year-old girl.
According to Warren County court documents, Cassie Thierauf, 38, was living in a duplex in Lebanon, Ohio, and the six-year-old and her family lived on the other side, Fox 19 reports.

On Aug. 25, 2022, the 38-year-old and another person were in the backyard allegedly doing drugs when the family came outside. The 6-year-old’s mother began to videotape the pair.
Warren County Prosecutor David Fornshell said an argument began, and eventually, the mother went inside to call the police.
While all this was happening in the backyard, the six-year-old, her sister, and a neighbor girl were in the front yard of the home playing.
The 6-year-old’s father testified in court Wednesday, “She called two dogs to attack four little girls who were out front. My 6-year-old, mauled by two of them while she stood there on her front porch watching.”
In a video obtained by the police, Thierauf can be heard telling the girl’s mother, “Your kids shouldn’t have f*cked with me and my dogs.”
Thierauf pleaded guilty to child-endangering charges as part of her plea agreement but also denied the allegations made against her. “I would never use my dogs in a malicious or threatening type of way towards anybody. This all occurred because I didn’t shut my front door,” Thierauf told the judge.
The six-year-old girl was required to undergo multiple emergency surgeries as a result of bites to her head and body.
The judge said he did not believe Thierauf and sentenced her to two years in jail with the possibility of two years probation after she is released. The dogs will be humanely put down as they are considered contraband as a result of the case.
