This is a follow up page to one I wrote on 3rd December 2017 about Steven Mishow shooting domestic cats belonging to neighbors. One of them was Olivia belonging to Pam Dowell who decided to leave the area as a result. The two others were a semi-feral named Emerald and Pumpkin a neighbour’s cat. Olivia liked to play with Pumpkin (Punky). Punky was also a beloved cat and the neighbor’s daughter was distraught over the cat’s death; ‘folded over in tears crying about her cat Punky and asking WHY, Why did this happen?’
In a very rare audio recording you can hear Mishow admitting (1) his hatred of cats and (2) his pride in shooting them. Mishow is speaking to a neighbour who recorded the conversation without Mishow’s knowledge.
Recording
Below is another version (MP4) in case the above does not play. It is quieter:
Transcript
The beginning is difficult to understand and is the voice of Mishow then the neighbour comes in. Mishow’s voice is slightly higher pitched.
“Yeh, I got it right behind the front shoulders. When they run see ya later muther fucker. I will kill every fuckin’ cat I see……That cat I seen about a week ago. Must have been a week. It’s been missing about a week. Shot the fucker. Them fuckers stink so fucking bad. They used to piss in my fucking garage.”
Dogs
Steve Hanson commenting on the original page wrote:
“Steven shot them in the ass, one cat was paralyzed instantly and he ordered his dog after them which the dog attacked and shook the death right out of them.”
Steven Mishow’s sister Rachel has defended her brother’s behaviour. She says that he didn’t intend to shot the cats dead. He used a pellet gun at a distance (240 yards) and at night she says. But Mishow says he shot the cats deliberately with the obvious intention of killing them.
To compound the admitted crime (he pleaded guilty in court) Mishow ordered his dogs after the cats to finish them off we are told. Pam says she was never able to recover the bodies of the cats. It is believed that they where ‘bagged and carried off to a dump’ the day after initial contact by Pam Dowell with law enforcement.
Pellet gun?
I don’t believe that he used a pellet gun. It was possibly a .22 calibre rifle but that is a guess. Cats often survive pellet gun shootings even when hit multiple times and they get home. In this instance one bullet killed or disabled the cats.
Pam says that she lives in a residential area a block from a school and that Mishow lives ‘across the street from my house and the Jordan’s’. We are told that Mishow knew that Pam’s cats were their pets. They were not ‘nuisance animals’.
The audio recording was played to the police and their investigation was not started until a week later. Hardly a sign of commitment to justice and law enforcement.
Cats stink
The cat hater’s argument that cats stink is a fallacy. They always say it when defending their cat shooting behaviour. Domestic cats are cleaner than most humans. Apparently Mishow’s property (that he says he was defending) was the subject of a ‘blight complaint’. Tons of garbage was in the area. It has since been removed.
Conviction
Mishow was convicted but punished lightly. This is the usual outcome.

Can we say your obsessed. Talking pictures of Stevens sign n his mailbox. Sure Matti Adams is so excited your supporting her.
Must be jealous your not in someone else’s will. After all you enjoy living off of other people. Your $750,000 lawsuit wasn’t enough. You locked Your self in your dad’s house thinking you were entitled. Yiyr uncle’s does n left you money. You made a false insurance claim for a ring. You laughed about it. When have you really worked? You were a D- cop. Think sleeping your way would get you to the top. When they fired your ass. You can’t even be trusted with troubled youth. Youur nothing but a wash up, trying so hard to be someone. You could of been a mom, but you aborted the fetus. Why? Wasn’t your husbands. Now you live in agony. Your miserable, you take advantage of Christine. Knowing she is extremely mental I’ll. You laugh because she can’t help herself n her emotions. While you skate away. Like you have always been. All about taking N taking. Your a joke for a community leader. You contradict yourself every time you open your mouth. Poor Jackie Dowell, she must hang her head in shame, every time she has to open her purse for you. To bad you didn’t use your intelligent for something positive
This is Rachel posting. She said the same thing on her Facebook today!

Thanks for your comment.
Interesting, Rachel just posted the “winning the war” comment on her public FB page. It appears she and her brother are excited about the Cohasset City Attorney, John Dimich putting a campaign sign over at Steven’s house.
To them it presents a win. John Dimich contracts as a city attorney to several Itasca County communities. His job would be to prosecute lower level cases like charging Steven Mishow with discharging a gun in the city limits of Cohasset. But John Dimich has a personal friend, Rose, she has posted on this page, along with Rachel.
He has gladly assisted the two mean girls and the cat killer in their games. This depicts unethical conduct and dirty backroom politics involving this attorney who is trying to run for the top dog position of County Attorney. The County Attorney’s office is the one that charged Steven Mishow with a felony for his crime. The Asst. Prosecutor who worked on behalf of the State of Minnesota is also running for County Attorney. The Mishow team along with their buddy Rose Schumacher have been aided and abetted by John Dimich. Now mind you John Dimich is an old has-been.
He does not even rise to the level of a C-rated attorney. His buddy Rose’s mom lives with John Dimich. John has been supporting Rose off and on for 30-years. He is her puppet. She pulls the strings on his life. John also drafted the final will papers for Rachel and Steven’s mother. Interesting though, Rachel was left out of that will or so the story goes. Anyhow John Dimich has been party to some very slippery unethical conduct and even removed himself from a harassment violation case in which he made a biased call on an arrest warrant. Rachel and Rose gave him a call and asked him to issue an arrest warrant when someone called Rachel a potato face on Facebook.
We have all seen Rachel’s current photo. More than likely those charges will be dismissed on the person, who should be credited with using a very fair description that would fall under the First Amendment of our US Constitution. Bottom-line John Dimich is corrupt. Placing his campaign sign in the small town of which he serves as a city attorney, in the yard of a person he knows has just been convicted to two animal cruelty charges may be legal. I am pretty sure he has lost himself many more votes in a race he was never going to win.
