ANIMAL CRUELTY

To commit the crime of animal cruelty in the state , at least one of four elements of a crime must be committed. According to the Penal Code 4209, a person must "knowingly and intentionally" fail to provide:

• Food
  


• Water
  


• Shelter
  


• Reasonable Care

If a person knowingly and intentionally does any of the above four, it is a crime (misdemeanor) punishable up to $4000 and one year in jail. Under Reasonable Care, a crime has also been committed if a person:

• tortures
  


• abandons
  


• exports and/or confines
  


• kills or injures or poisons
  


• fights (causing them to)
  


• engages in live coursing
  


• Trips horses
  


• has earnings for animal fighting - even property owner could go to jail
  


• intentionally trains an animal for fighting purposes

In addition, if a person tries to tamper with and hide evidence of any crime, the charges are raised to a third degree felony with 5-10 years in jail. So if in an animal cruelty case, carcasses are hidden, burned, or otherwise disposed of, and this can be proven by the inspecting officer, a felony has taken place.

SHAME on you.IM SO darn dissapinted in you. the Animal Control has issued a citation to appear in court and has
