Derek Ross Fierro, Chicago public school teacher accused of killing pet, called dog stupid


25-year-old Derek Ross Fierro, a Chicago public school teacher who reportedly admitted to killing his own dog, once called his dead pet dumb... and now the evidence has been deleted! 

Friday morning, around 3:43 a.m., Fierro made a frantic 911 call after he beat his dog to death is his East Lakeview neighborhood apartment on the 500 block of West Roscoe Street, said police.

According to various news reports, the Eugene Field Elementary school teacher became enraged when his dog, Queso, ate "every piece of paper" in his apartment and soiled himself.

Citing police dispatch reports, Fierro put the dead dog's body in the truck of his car, called the cops, and waited for authorities at a nearby Starbucks. 

Late Friday evening, Derek Ross Fierro's Facebook profile, listed under profile number 7936041, was permanently deleted.

At first glance, the page seemed pretty harmless... but after reviewing its contents from a prosecutorial standpoint, we understand why Fierro's profile was removed from the internet.

Among other things, the page contained several adorable photos of Fierro's dog. One pic showed the yellow lab/chow mix sleeping on a pillow on the backseat of a car.

Another photo of the pooch included a caption where Fierro referred to the dog as stupid, because the pet, who was given the name Doc by the Chicago Canine Rescue Foundation and later renamed Queso by his new owner, seldom responded to his new name.

We can't recall the teacher's exact words, but they were something like, "My dog has the most crookedest ears and he is too dumb to know his own name." 

On the surface, Fierro's comments about his dog's lack of intelligence may seem innocuous, but in light of what happened, they may have been a sign that Fierro was losing his patience with an animal that obviously needed a lot of love.

  1. Thumbs up on the headline.

    Truly pitiful, this Chicago Gay Way ($$$$$ B.A.M.N.) and that Monique wannabe heifer sitting on YOUR stoop(id) around the corner talking about how she's "gonna stab him" aimed at the guy walking in front of me. Probably a joke but this is how it originates. It's in their blood. And you haven't the balls to remove her?

    Who paid for this "teachers" edjumacation?

    2. I hope that dumbass spick get what he deserves, cause if I see him someday he go wish he hadn't did what he did. I hope a vicious ass rottweiler get loose from an owner or better yet a stray rottweiler snatches his throat out.

    3. Animal cruelty is so horrible.

      And so is prejudice. Who is ignorant enough to use "spick" ???? After showing your ignorance, no one important gives a shit what you say.

  2. 10 to 1 this was a Meth fueled rage. I believe most parents will not want their children sitting in front of a teacher who punched a dog to death. The Board will insist on a drug test and since Meth stays in your system for weeks...well I suspect the Board will soon have an opening for a 4th grade teacher.

  3. I notice the killing of a dog generates more comment and anger than stories about humans getting killed. The doggie lovers really come roaring out.

  4. An innocent dog getting killed really upsets me. Some nigger thug getting killed...not so much.

  5. The poor rescue dog's suffering with this POS is now over, thank God. I'm pretty sure that was not his first beating.
    Mr Baby Face Fiero's suffering is just beginning as its going to follow him his whole life.
    People hate animal torturer's oh, and to the above "anon" comment re: animals vs. people. That is what's know as a "red herring" argument. Animal lovers care about people, too.

    When a Lab ( a Black Lab of course) accosts me on the street with 5 of his dog buddies and beats the shit out of me simply for being a Golden
    Retriever ....then I will understand your point. Until then STFU.

  7. Imagine all the helpless creatures out there, owned by sadistic, merciless bastards like Cornholio here. If some other pathetic creep just got two years in prison for injuring his dog, this pillow biting slime should get at least that much.

    Why did he call 911?

  10. ^^ I heard a neighbor caught him stuffing the bloodied dog's corpse into the car and told him that if he didn't call the cops on himself, the neighbor would.

  11. Comment of 11:21 am gets the award for dumbest comment. He's a golden retriever defending himself against a big, bad black lab and his dog buddies? Wuf wuf, growl.

  13. Fliers have been posted around his school; I'd like to see similar fliers go up on this waste of a life's block where he lives.

  14. We know about this tragedy because he called 911. How many others didn't?

    And how well did Chicago Canine Rescue Foundation screen to make sure both dog and owner were a good match? Rescued animals come with a lot of issues, both health and emotional. If this guy is a first-time pet owner, he should have received some counseling or guidance about adopting an animal from a known abused background. It's unfortunate this happened, but we should look to what contributed to its death and what can be done to improve the adoption system.

  15. ^^ As usual, some lameass bleeding heart liberal is blaming everyone and everything on this vicious crime except the evil, lowlife, asshole criminal who committed it. Face facts without excuses...there are evil people in the world and this schoolteacher is one of them! He deserves to die the same way he murdered his dog. End of story.

  18. His good looks are deceiving..sort of like the beautiful young woman that every man desires. Men will over look talented, well educated, intelligent women. They will seek out the hot babe at all cost...and some times that hot babe is at all cost. What is behind the temporary good looks..Soul..what is the soul? What is Desire? Who are you? Where are you going?

  19. This is the type of face I would like to sketch if it belonged to a good soul. Well I'll be dog-gone if I would sketch this disturbed dude.

  22. You people know jack shit about the man. I have known him my whole life and he has never been violent!!! Some things happen that are unexplainable....I personally don't know what to say myself. But I do know that I never judge someone solely on what I read. There is more to the story than what meets the eye. I will support him and love him thru this whole ordeal. I'm so sorry Derek but your friends from 2005 are praying for you and we love you.

  23. Anyone who can beat a dog to death could go into a rage and kill a human! What about a child? My advice, get yourself a vasectomy!

  24. @9:37PM...You are disgusting and pure evil to claim you "support" and "love" that creep. He deserves execution the same way he executed the poor dog.

  25. the end is nigh. the teachers are high. This is the shit that makes you wanna give up city life and move to the woods, Away From People.

  26. @937 - Your friend is not a good person. He took in a rescue dog and neglected it (yes, going out until almost 4am is neglecting your dog), dogs can't be left like that. Unfortunately, your friend is an idiot and doesn't know how to care for dogs. There isn't more to the story. He went out, got wasted, neglected to care for his dog, came home and noticed the dog, who had not been let out for hours and probably not taken for a walk of more than a block in months had soiled itself because dogs cannot hold it in that long and need to be cared for and not neglected. It at the paper, because it's owner didn't leave enough food out for it. The only stupid one here is the guy that doesn't know how to care for a dog. If this was a friend of mine, I would never be able to speak to or look at him again. You are a complete piece of shit for defending him, do the world a favor and have your self castrated, please for the benefit of all of mankind, do no procreate.

    He also has the look of a child molester. I wouldn't let my kid in his classroom. He is a disgusting human being. If this sick fuck doesn't have the patience to take care of a dog, then how the fuck is he going to handle a classroom full of kids? He can't even take care of dog.

    I really feel that this guy needs to be evaluated. Then, bludgeon him to death with the body of his dead dog. So no mercy, make him suffer.

  30. We are from this young mans hometown. This young man is a well educated young man who had a bad moment and made a wrong choice. If he is crying its because after his bad moment he realized what he did was wrong but if you really knew this young man you would not make all these hatred threats or judge either. Only god can make that judgement.

    Thank you for your post.

    To DEREK:

    We LOVE you and know that what has happened is an extreme tragedy for you more than anyone else. No one can punish you as badly as you are punishing yourself now. These violent, hate-filled posts are no better than the incident that has occurred. You will rise above this and with time you will heal. We are all rooting for you.

    And for those of you who are gearing up to retaliate to this post... Go right ahead, let it all out.

    Much love ALWAYS for DEREK.

  32. You are WRONG that "only God can make that judgement." A JUDGE is going to be making a JUDGEMENT on this monster later this week and hopefully he will be thrown in prison where he belongs because he is a violent nutjob. The other inmates will take care of him.

  33. A bad moment!?!? I'm sure Queso thought it was more than just a bad moment...

  36. Find me one shred of physical evidence that God exists and maybe ill believe you. Until then, there is no god. Evolution happened, and if you think a magical man created the universe despite science proving that theory wrong countless times... You're an idiot.

    Regarding Derek, I can't wait to see how long he goes to jail for. What a worthless piece of shit.

  37. God will get to deal with him for his evil after he does prison time and after he loses his job and after the neighbors get even.

  39. The real tragedy is ongoing... Pets are beaten to death every single day, or they suffer and die of neglect every single day. (Ever watch Animal Cops?) We just happened to learn of this instance because the killer turned himself in. Everyone should be on the lookout for pets who suffer defenselessly at the hands of stupid and cruel owners, and then do something about it. I wonder how many people knew that this guy's dog was being abused over the past 9 months?!?!

  40. @12:53

    Maybe it WASN'T being abused. Do you understand the concept of someone snapping? I wonder if the rescue group ever bothered to check in on the dog. Oh, but no one wants to look at them and blame them for any of this. Who cares if he was a teacher. Your profession doesn't make you incapable of harming another human being or animal. I'm not shocked by this, I'm concerned and I'm curious. I think Chicago Canine Rescue should be investigated and held accountable for putting the dog with a full-time graduate student AND teacher who lived ALONE. How could he manage a puppy? CCR are fools for thinking they can hide behind the "he was an elementary school teacher" act. I would not adopt from their organization until they were investigated and had restructured their adoption process.

  41. ^Ignornace on both sides. If a teacher doesn't know how to TEACH his dog and beats it........to death......

    I'm sure he was one of these happy go lucky, no right-no wrong "liberals" that thought it was absolutely OK to let his dog run loose with no leash and no rabies vaccination (if these "aware" people here even know what that is as only 5% of dog owners register their dogs in this shitty - oops, city).

    I know his type all too well. This supposed "first gay neighborhood" in the U.S. (BS!) isn't doing much for their own cause.

  42. unfortunately, this dog seemed to be an accessory, not a pet. many people buy or adopt dogs because they think they want one. They pass others walking their dogs, and say...oh i'd look good at one end of that leash. I think I'll get one. It will be fun to come home to a loving dog, it will make my lonely existence in this big city tolerable. But then...the dog has needs. All day long, every day.
    I work, I go to school, I party until the bars close, ugggh. This dog is not a fashion statement. That evening was not the first time this young man had issues with this dog. But the dog was communicating his needs they only way he knew how. If he won't take me for a walk, I'll use the paper. Oh no paper? Well I can grab some here, and here and here and ohhh now I gotta go. This man needed to take responsibility. Now unfortunately, he going to be held responsible.

  43. No empathy should be given to this monster. He can cry all the tears he wants...no tears were shed while he was beating the dog to death. He deserves to be beaten within an inch of his life. His soul will be forever tortured by what he did. He'll never teach again. His murder will haunt him all the days of his life. He is fucked. I am going to personally post fliers in his neighborhood. I have already launched a letter campaign to the Principal of the school he teaches at and to the Chicago Public School Inspector General. This man is an abomination to society and should be beaten....beaten. Horrible monster. You people defending him on here should be beaten too!

  44. Honestly, going out of your way so much to wish such horrible things upon another person reveals a lot about your character. This was an unfortunate incident for all parties that were involved, but ultimately, it's something you don't have anything to do with.

    People are not perfect, and we all fuck up. If you know anything about compassion, you would be able to support this guy through this difficult time. The next time you hurt someone or something else, physically or emotionally, think about how much hate and detest you displayed here.

  45. I dont understand he has to be a spick? So your a dumbass for even calling him that so first you can go to hell for saying that. Second. I agree there are worst things in this world then this. All tho this is a sad story. But I feel for Derek. I hate to see an amazing smart man go through something like this! At least he called 911 and owned up to his mistake. God will forgive him. And i hope he gets life back! Praying for him.

  46. He is an evil monster. He only called the cops because a neighbor caught him trying to hide the dead dog he killed with his bare fists. He deserves the same fate.
