The Gory play! Teen Mom 2 star Jenelle Evans’ husband David Eason beats, shoots, and kills their French bulldog Nugget!
It was indeed a violent reaction towards an animal. Jenelle Evans’ second husband David Eason has admitted that he shot, beat, and killed his French bulldog Nugget after the dog bit his daughter on her face.
David Eason and his confession
He is Teen Mom 2 Jenelle Evans’ second husband David Eason. David admitted that he murdered his family dog Nugget in a fit of rage after the dog nipped his daughter in the face. David is accused of murdering an animal.
But instead of apologizing and showing any regret, David is justifying his ill-doings on social media. David put up a video on social media wherein it shows the dog being baited to bite the girl’s face.
The clip on his HickTownKing Instagram page shows Nugget and David’s daughter Ensley on a couch and she is trying to go in for a kiss.
The dog is visibly uncomfortable and moves away from the girl and then bites her face as she starts crying. David is all this while filming the whole incident without intervening at the right time to avoid damage.
Later, David also shared a picture of the crying toddler who has a wound on her cheek where the skin was breached by the dog’s teeth. He captioned it:
‘I dont give a damn what animal bites my baby on the face… whether it be your dog or mine, a dog is a dog and I dont put up with that s**t at all,’
He boasted:
‘I’m all about protecting my family, it is my lifes mission,’
‘Some people are worth killing or dying for and my family means that much to me. You can hate me all you want but this isn’t the first time the dog bit Ensley aggressively. The only person that can judge whether or not an animal is a danger to MY CHILD is ME.’
He switched off the comments section of the post.
The legal aspect of this killing
This act of violence was committed in Jenelle’s North Carolina home. In North Carolina, the killing of a dog is considered a Class H felony and this comes under the Animal – Cruelty statute. But officials stated that they would go after and arrest David only if the dog owner Jenelle Evans made an official complaint to them.
How did the police know of the killing?
An unidentified male informed 911 this Tuesday that David had allegedly killed a dog. Based on the complaint, the Columbus County Sheriff would first investigate the matter and then file a report.
Though David expressed no remorse for his cruel act, Jenelle expressed her grief on social media. She captioned a photo of the dog and her and wrote:
‘Nugget… I’m crying everyday. I love you so much and I’m so sorry. I’m speechless. You were my side kick and knew the moment I felt bad and would cuddle with me,’
She added:
‘You still had a lot to learn and a lot to grow from your lessons. Everyday I wake up you’re not here, when I come home you’re not here, when I go to bed… you’re not here. You’re gone forever and there’s no coming back. #Heartbroken #Distraught’
Jenelle had adopted the French bulldog in August 2018. Additionally, she owns two pit bulls.
David Eason and his previous crimes
Six months back, David had broken their collarbone of Jenelle after pinning her down to the ground. At that time, Jenelle in last October had told the 911 operator:
‘He got violent because he’s been drinking,’
‘I’m recovering from a surgery on Monday. I can’t breathe. I have four kids in the house with me right now. They’re all sleeping. I don’t know what to do. He left the house. I don’t know what to do right now.’
