Animal Control Officer
Phenomenal job on this book! Very well written with excellent scenarios and realism. It truly brought out the reality and severity of the link between domestic abuse and animal abuse, with close attentiveness to victims who cannot defend themselves against these crimes. As you read it, you tear a bit, with the reality so vivid. A very well-done book. I recommend it to all Animal Control Officers like myself, law enforcement officers, domestic violence advocates. It really opens your eyes. Thank you Tom Flannigan for sharing so much of your knowledge and experience with us!

The definitive resource book on animal abuse
Written by a Ph.D. researcher and a law enforcement/animal control officer, Silent Victims is the definitive resource book on animal abuse. Highly comprehensive and easy to read, it contains everything you need to know about animal abuse and abusers. The book highlights top research findings and applied fieldwork in the animal abuse arenas. Silent Victims is a must-read for practitioners, animal welfare professionals, researchers, educators, veterinarians, law enforcement, lawyers, judges, animal care and control professionals, and everyone (professionals and laypersons alike) who wish to stop animal abuse.
