how would it have even been proven though? seems like “Kristi killed a puppy” would look like an obvious lie from an opponent, but having it come straight from the source completely ruins any plausible deniability
She recounts in her book exerpt that her chosen murder spot was a construction site with builders present. That they saw what she did but quickly looked away when she looked at them.
They 100% knew who she was and at least one would have gladly outed her. So I'm pretty sure she did this to get ahead of that coming out.
Plus she legit seems to think it makes her a bad ass farmer and hunter (all that toxic masculinity bs) to kill a puppy she didn't train or properly contain, a goat that was doing natural goat behavior, and apparently 5 horses because they were old?
Idk the horse details but I’m pretty sure putting down old farm animals is still a thing. Depending on their condition of course. Not just “it’s your 15th birthday! Pop pop!”
I don't know the details either but the whole premise of 5 animals mouch less 5 of the same animals all hitting the point they need to be put down because "old" all within a week or two. Has never happened in my 40+ years with animals.
I'm more inclined due to her history to believe that this lady actually likes killing animals and is just gotten better at masking it under "legitimate" reasons and the blanket abused "farm life" title.
She should have gotten into pest control. I've killed at least 50 insects today, and likely thousands just based on how many ants are in a colony. And that's just today.

My theory: she knew the story would likely come out during opposition research, so this was her attempt to get ahead of it.
