The man, Thomas Capriola, 30, of Islip Terrace, was sentenced last Friday by a Suffolk County Court judge to 280 hours of Community Service with three years probation, after pleading guilty to misdemeanor charges of animal cruelty and marijuana possession. Mr. Capriola admitted that he had bought small animals – guinea pigs, snakes and others- and used them in the filming of the videos in which women wearing high heels crushed the animals to death while talking to the them in seductive tones.
