Two people have been arrested and a third is being sought after police found a dead cat at the 600 block of Haywood Road in Asheville, North Carolina.
The tragic death of Kitty was brought to the attention of the Asheville Police Department (APD) after Veronica Coit of Asheville Cat Weirdos (a cat owners group) saw Kitty on Instagram. The cat had been tortured and ritualistically mutilated. She contacted the police.
In an interview with WLOS13, Veronica stated
“To think of what these monsters did to a cat that was sweet and friendly is awful.”
Shariah Jessamyn Metzger, 26, and Jace Lee Greene, 29 were charged with killing a cat in what could be a string of animal cruelty acts that were posted on social media. So far they’ve only been charged with ‘improper burial of an animal’. Police are still looking for Zackery Eugene Greene.
Metzger and Greene originally told APD that Kitty was their cat. Police have since learned Kitty belonged to Aaron Naster. A microchip confirms this.
In an article on Enquiring Minds Media, Veronica said
“..the Instagram photos of Kitty appeared online right before the group received warnings from concerned people in Charlotte, who had been tracking the Greenes and Metzger, that the trio might be headed to Asheville. Charlotte has experienced a rash of cat killings and maimings recently, and in July one Charlotte area cat was kidnapped and held for ransom.”
Veronica told APD Detective Sgt. John Zeigler she could identify the building in the Instagram photos and courageously followed them Saturday night until police arrived. The body was later found and was sent off for necropsy to determine whether Kitty was still alive when she was tortured.
Metzer posted bond and is out of jail while Jace Greene is still in jail.
Zackery Greene posted on his Facebook page that Kitty was already dead when he and his friends found him.
“Threatening humans for desecrating road kill is out of line.”
Aaron Naster told News13 he didn’t know the three people allegedly responsible for Kitty’s death. Naster said Kitty went missing on October 22. He was adopted two years ago from Brother Wolf Animal Rescue. The family describe Kitty as very friendly and said that’s how his alleged killers were able to get their hands on him. He loved everyone.
On Sunday, instead of preparing for Halloween, Aaron Naster and his children 21-year-old Charlie, 17-year-old Sydney and 13-year-old Giriffen, spent the day taking down Halloween decorations and replacing them with a memorial to Kitty.

Greene (not sure which one) has a prior record in NC that includes 14 arrests, including five driving while impaired arrests, hit/run leaving the scene with property damage, and assault by strangulation.
The trio, described as “drifters,” are maintaining their innocence. For any person to maliciously torture, mutilate, maim, cruelly beat, disfigure, poison, or kill any animal is considered a Class H misdemeanor.

I will never stop posting this bastard’s address. This is all available because of how awesome AMERICA is(freedom of information act baby). What Jace, Zack and Shariah freely chose to do with clear thoughts and they even admitted they weren’t under the influence of anything but a couple beers when they committed this horrible act. They were VERY AWARE of what EXACTLY THEY WERE DOING. They weren’t even ashamed what they did, they literally strung up the cat’s dead body in front of a grocery store, they took and posted photos of themselves in the process of the terrible acts of torture they did to Kitty before they finally killed the cat. They have absolutely no remorse or shame. They are proud of what they’ve done and were even bragging about it within the traveling community online and in person. They deserve not a single second of peace in their lives, these HORRIBLE slags/3 wastes of oxygen.
Thanks, Lisa, for your passion about animal welfare and commitment to expose this barbaric bastard.

Just because a little time has passed since the kitty killing incident doesn’t absolve you of the crime Jace. You’re a weak sad sack of shit little boy (I won’t call you a man because you’re not one) who can’t even admit what you’ve done because your being addressed in a public forum. I’ve not only seen posts online (I’ve got the screenshots you cunt) where you brazenly admitted to killing that person’s pet cat with no qualms or remorse whatsoever, I’ve also heard personally from people who know you as a friend(s) and acquaintance(s) that you had no problem bragging and admitting to what you had done to that person’s pet who was alive when you first came into contact with it, that you thought you were a “bad ass” because you stole and killed someone’s pet and posted it online/your personal Instagram profile to get more followers and views. It didn’t work out the way you thought it was gonna did you? All you got was tons of backlash from people who didn’t know you and a good amount of people who did know you personally and followed your Instagram page were pissed, disturbed and disappointed (which I don’t get it’s you how could they expect any better?) at your callousness and your pathetic behavior. I know you got plenty of death threats not only in person several times by people who saw what you did on the news and decided to brandish a gun in your bitch ass face but also tons of harassment and death threats thru IM’s and DM’S. I don’t feel sorry for you, you deserve every second of what you get for the rest of your life for commiting this atrocity, you are a miserable piece of shit who goes in and out of jail on the reg (cuz your not an actual good criminal you’re an idiot child thinking he can get away with stealing people’s things that they earned thru hard work, something you know nothing about). We know why you dare don’t go thru Asheville anymore, cuz your unwanted by everyone there including the punk community. The only reason why you were lucky enough to get a not guilty conviction is because you just happened to commit this crime in the state with the laxest laws about animal rights in the US (besides Guam). You used your pet dog with you holding the leash to deliver the “killing blow” to that man’s pet cat Kitty so that’s why they found you not guilty, on a technicality. This will follow you for the rest of your life and you deserve everything that comes along with that because it’s still not as bad as what you did to that person’s pet. You aren’t even good enough to be called a human being, I’d call you a pig Jace if that weren’t an insult to your mom–correction I mean pigs everywhere. Every time you think you’ve gotten away from this little event that you created it’s gonna come creeping back whether it’s some girl you like that you might be dating or getting serious about or just like fucking, she eventually ends up googling your name and seeing this huge horrible thing you’ve done (cuz you thought I’d finally make you cool) and Boom! that relationship/ fuck buddy/ girlfriend thing is OVER. Or maybe your home bum ass finally wants to move out of your mom’s home (Christ you’re like the farthest thing from a mature functioning adult, you piece of garbage) or out of the home bum camp by the freeway you were living in for months while you were telling people online you were riding trains the whole time, well that’s gonna require you eventually getting an apartment or a job, good luck on that when they see your record asshole! You’re a total fuckup and you know it.
Here’s just one of the times online he admits to killing that person’s cat.
You’ve got enemies everywhere Jace, Shariah and Zack. Watch your backs.
Well everyone hates an oogle/poser so it’s not a surprise that Jace is universally hated. Everything out of his mouth is a lie so don’t believe a word. He’s a piece of fecal matter masquerading as a crust lord traveler. He spends months at a time in one place/one area(the Ashville area) and calls himself a train hopper tho he will go hundreds of days without riding a single train. He’s such a garage human that this single event ostracized him from the traveling community he called home and the punk community. He’s been forced to leave punk shows cuz he’s so unwanted. Him, Shariah and Zack stayed in Asheville so long after being released from jail that they were forced at gunpoint to leave their home bum camp they called home for months(while claiming to acquaintances online he was riding trains the whole time) because they were such a nuisance and unwanted in the town. Jace and Shariah had several guns pulled on them after the cat killing incident and it seems like from Jace’s behavior that he hasn’t learned his lesson. When you’re free ride from your family is over and you finally have to submit to the real world and be a REAL ADULT you’re gonna realize that you can’t make this incident go away. EVERY JOB you apply for they’re gonna see this right away as soon as they Google your name and records, you can’t hide. This is gonna follow you your whole life, karma is gonna rip you a new asshole and you deserve every second of your miserable life. I bet you make very little money when you’re out there begging for your beer and drug money like a home bum because everyone knows what you did.
