HARLAN, Ky. (AP) - A third person has been charged in southeastern Kentucky in a case involving horses found starving.
Harlan County Deputy Circuit Clerk Robin Smith says Glenda
Shepherd faces charges of animal cruelty and criminal mischief.
Previously arrested on the same charges were Edwin and Diane
Sullivan.
All three are free on surety bond.
Harlan County Humane Society President Marcella Chadwick says
five horses were malnourished and one was found dead.
Deputy Clerk Barbara Perkins says Shepherd's arraignment is
scheduled for Jan. 26 and that the Sullivans' case will go to a
grand jury.
Attorney Johnny Turner says Shepherd is innocent and a horse she
was keeping on the same farm with the Sullivan's animals was not
malnourished.

I dont understand why they punish people more for being cruel to animals than children. I know they are God creatures but, a child is the most precious thing in Gods eyes. You hear more people being punished for this than if they do wrong to a child.
