After 5 years a small puppy mill owner in Union County, NC has finally paid what the Judge ordered her to pay even after fleeing to CA. The woman was 77 when convicted, had earned 1.9 million in 10 years and just last week the Humane Society received 38,952.19 from her son in Riverside, CA. The lawyers who handled the case received 50,000 and they donated all of it to HS. This woman lived in the country, had a lot of acres and lived quite a way back off the main road. The conditions were horrible for the dogs. Weeds had grown up around their cages and they went days with very little food. I can't remember exactly how many dogs were rescued but a lot of them had to be put down. She never showed any remorse even after our local TV station confronted her in Riverside, 3 years ago. When you think of how much she earned in 10 years, add the interest to that after all this time and this amount is chicken feed to this family. Tonight when I saw this segment on the news they showed a little Yorkie, soaking wet and shivering from footage 5 years ago.
