James Harrison Trimble-Pettitt, 33, has been sentenced to five years in prison after his XL bully dogs were involved in the fatal mauling of 52-year-old Ian Price in Stonnall, Staffordshire. The incident, described as an 'appalling act of savagery,' occurred in September 2023 when the dogs escaped from Trimble-Pettitt's home. The court heard that the dogs had previously attacked others and were not being kept adequately, lacking basic comforts such as toys and bedding.
