A 22-year-old Hillsboro man, Brandon Matthew Nagy of 860 NE Sunrise Lane, was arrested on Tuesday after a neighbor’s complaint that he was beating his dog and not for the first time either!
When police arrived, they found Nagy, hands and shoes smeared with blood. He initially denied owning a dog but eventually admitted owning Kahula, a pit bull who was found injured in the garage.
“Nagy stated he did not own a dog, and later admitted that he had a dog. The dog was located in the garage of the residence,” said Lt. Michael Rouches with Hillsboro Police.
Witnesses told of seeing Nagy kicking the dog and throwing her against a backyard shed. The dog’s injuries bear this out.
“Based on the witness statements and injuries found on the dog’s head and tail area, and the fact that Nagy had blood smeared on his hands and shoes, they had probable cause to arrest him for animal abuse-2,” Rouches said.
Kahula was taken to Dove Lewis Pet Hospital and treated for wounds to her head and tail as well as cuts and bruises.
Nagy, a convicted felon with prior drug charges was arrested for animal abuse as well as a weapons charge when the police found an AK-47 concealed under his bed.
He was arrested and taken to Washington County Jail where he was charged with second-degree animal abuse and for possession of a firearm by a felon.
Kahula is recovering from her grievous abuse at the hospital.
Yeah, we got a real ‘tough guy’ here beating and abusing an innocent and defenseless animal! Wonder how this tough guy would do up against a real man? People like this are nothing but cowardly bullies!! Love to see him get his comeuppance!

AWFUL!! Look at this freak! I want to smack that grin right off this pathetic face! Is this Hillsboro NJ? This poor poor poor dog… I hope they release her to a loving home and not hold her as ‘evidence’ like they often do… But thank GOD she is away from him forever!!!
Wish I could do exactly what he did to this dog – to him. I’d also love to see this same weak, gentle 4 legged thing join me so we could finnish him off slowly. Do I sound harsh – yes!!!!! I feel I could do the most horrid things to cruel humans because we sure beat every other creature on this planet when it comes to cruelty
I would also like to slap the look off his face. A 22 year old convicted felon? Like to know how old he was when he started that career.
It’s Hillsboro, Oregon.
Yeah, he’ll get his comeuppance alright. A person who commits a felony firearm offense will face two to five additional years of imprisonment and heavier punitive fines. And his fellow inmates will find him such a nice, *pretty* boy too!
Unfortunetly, the reason Pitbulls are villified and thought of as vicious is this kind of treatment. Anyone who has any experience with them, knows how people loving and trusting they are – they are NOT predisposed to be aggressive to people..only other dogs, as they are bred to fight other dogs. They do this to PLEASE the people they love so much. This poor dog clearly had the weapons to put this man in the hospital, but because he was “her human” she tolerated her beatings rather than turn on him. Eventually dogs like this do turn, sadly sometimes on other people out of desperation or starvation, or the result of traumatic stress syndrome that dogs DO suffer. Then people who don’t know the truth hear about it in papers and think the dogs are the problem and ban them or kill them in their thousands in shelters…it is really a tragedy of mythic proportions.
Yeah, you do want to kind of smack that look off his face, don’t ya? Pathetic POS!!
Linda, sadly you are right, and it’s not just pitties either, any dog can turn but pitties do have such a rep that so many people are fighting against and something like this… who knows what could happen if that poor girl wasn’t removed and the abuse continued.
5 minutes alone with this piece is all I want…just 5 minutes..
I’ve heard rumors that animal abusers are treated very similiar to child abusers in the clink….Let’s hope so..Please let his cell mate be an animal lover!!
The smirk on this scum is appalling. I hope he gets the welcome he deserves while he serves his time.
