Do you think Florida has the weirdest people?


43 y/o PJ Nilaja Patterson is facing 5 YEARS in the big house for TORTURING a 3ft long IGUANA by beating it and dragging it around for 30 MINUTES who now is claiming STAND YOUR GROUND for killing it after it bit him!!

He is invoking the controversial law after he was arrested for animal cruelty charges when surveillance footage caught the horrific torture

On Sept 2, he was seen beating and tormenting the animal outside Lake Worth Utilities as video caught him torturing the animal

He said it bit him causing "22 stitches" so he stood his ground to "fight back"

His lawyers filed a motion stating he feared for his life and that the iguana could kill him with its "poison" and it should be protected by the stand your ground law which gives the right to fight someone and kill them if your life is threatened.

The statement says "In this case, Patterson acted in a reasonable manner under all the circumstances because the wild iguana was first to engage with physical violence during the encounter"

The motion was denied by the judge

The cop who watched the video said it showed Patterson dragging the Iguana by the tail and then swinging it around hard ground. He was then seen kicking it several times as the iguana tried to hide under a car but he continued to attack it by trying to get it out before stomping on it several times that lasted nearly 30 minutes in total

The vet who examined it said it was clearly animal cruelty who examined the injuries that said it was painful and terrifying
