Paskel also pleaded guilty to armed robbery and kidnapping in a 2018 carjacking that came before the dog’s death.
Investigators say Paskel stole a car and lead police on a high-speed chase. Police then used the car’s OnStar system to remotely shut its engine off.
Paskel ran from the car with the dog, Fang, then fired three shots, killing the dog.
