TMZ reported that Californian laws says someone can only be prosecuted for vandalism if they “deface with graffiti or other inscribed material” or if they damage or destroy someone else’s property.
The owner of the dog might however be held for violating L.A.’s “pooper scooper law” which requires dog owners to pick up after their pets.
Donald Trump’s star has suffered lots of vandalism in the last 5 years. James Otis, a member of the famed Otis Elevator fam, vandalized the star with a pickax in 2016 and several times in the years that followed. He pled no contest to vandalism and got community service and a $4,400 fine. He was placed on 3 years probation.
The Hollywood Chamber of Commerce which manages the Walk of Fame, has always restored or replaced the star after each vandalism.
James Otis has nothing to do with Otis Elevator, nor he is an heir to the Otis Elevator family fortune. Otis is a publicly traded company.
