A Long Island lawmaker is calling for legal reform and a thorough investigation following the euthanization of a pet squirrel who found fame on social media.

A woman whose personal items, including her cell phone, were stolen by a group of teen boys was able to retrieve them and said she doesn't want the teen thieves to be charged because she sees "a kid that's going the wrong way."

The motion comes on the heels of a potential negligence claim and images of handwritten notes taken by police officers at the scene that were shared widely across social media.
