THIS is the sickening moment a cruel woman throws a dog 30ft off a shopping centre car park.
Amy Lea Judge, 26, left terrified pooch Princess with horrific injuries that caused passersby to think she was hit by a car.
Judge was captured on CCTV pacing back and forth from her partner’s car while apparently in the midst of a row.
She then appears to dangle the ten-year-old Maltese shih-tzu over the edge of the multi-storey before hurling her over the side.
The helpless dog can then be seen plummeting towards the ground before she goes out of view and her owner makes a quick getaway.
Princess was later put down as her injuries were so severe that those who found her thought she had been run over by a car.
Judge later confessed to the crime on Facebook saying: “I can’t live with the guilt”.
She said: “I threw my dog off the top story of a shopping centre car park and watched her fall to her death but she survived and needed to be put down due to how badly I injured her.
“I killed my dog… I need the truth out in the open as it’s tearing me apart.
“I did her a favour because all I did was hurt her an abuse her.”
But she later deleted the post and told police her account had been hacked.
Judge was jailed for 12 months for the cruel act caught on CCTV at Westfield Whitford City shopping centre near Perth, Australia.
She was also banned form owning an animal for ten years.
Her 23-year-old partner was fined £1,300 and banned from owning animals for three years after he failed to seek care for Princess.
The confused little dog was rushed to a nearby vet in a state of shock and had possible internal haemorrhaging, brain injury, and spinal and pelvic trauma.
The vet checked Princess’s microchip and contacted Judge, who was listed as her owner.
She attended with her partner to discuss the extent of the dog’s injuries and the cost of treatment, ultimately deciding on euthanasia.
Magistrate Mark Millington said she had left Princess for dead in what he described as a “planned, deliberate and intentional act”.
He said she displayed a lack of remorse and consistently attempted to shift the blame and make excuses for her behaviour.
RSPCA Inspector Kylie Green called it a “callous and extremely confronting display of animal cruelty”, and the “most distressing” she had seen in her 11 years on the job.
She added: “Dogs can be so trusting, and they rely on their owners to keep them safe.
“I can’t think of a more disgusting betrayal of that trust.
“Today’s outcome delivers some justice for the pain and terror poor Princess endured in her final hours.
“I hope it also sends a clear message to the community that intentional cruelty towards animals is extremely serious and won’t be tolerated.”
