Phoenix, Az. -- An Arizona man is in jail after admitting that he fed a three week old puppy to a pet boa constrictor as two teenage boys watched.
Joseph Beadle has been ordered to undergo drug and psychological testing before he's sentenced for felony animal cruelty.
Police say he poured cooking oil on the pup so it would be easier for the snake to swallow it. Investigators also found the snake to be a victim of neglect and put it in the care of animal handlers.
Beadle pleaded guilty to the animal cruelty charge last month, but was jailed after failing to show up for sentencing. The hearing has been rescheduled for next month. Beadle could get up to a year in jail and be fined 150-thousand dollars.
