Pooch-punt Marine guilty
A combat Marine charged with brutally kicking his Broadway-actress girlfriend’s yapping, 10-pound Yorkie pleaded guilty yesterday to misdemeanor animal-torturing charges in a no-jail deal that will ultimately leave him without a record.
After court, Joseph Graves, 30, strolled out hand-in-hand with his still-girlfriend, actress Ashley Yeater.
Yeater’s dog, Emmit, lost an eye and suffered six broken ribs in the January attack.
“What he did was wrong, and he has said he’s sorry,” Yeater told The Post. “But society really has to get its priorities right. I mean, this is just a dog.”
Graves must serve 200 hours at an animal-welfare organization and attend weekly counseling.
