Update: Next hearing for woman accused of letting her dog starve in her crate postponed.
As suspected, the next hearing for Christine Abrams, accused of leaving her dog Ella in her crate without food or water after she moved, is NOT this Friday, as previously reported. Friday is the Fourth of July holiday.
Brevard County Judge Kelly Jo McKibben sent out a note earlier this week, saying the hearing was postponed but giving no date, according to Animal Crazy, the Orlando Sentinel’s animal blog.
Animal Crazy’s Ann Hellmuth also mentioned a story in her newspaper about Holly Gann, a 21-year-old Melbourne woman who has been a leader in organizing the protests against animal cruelty and calling for a maximum sentence for Abrams. Gann and her fiance are behind the Voices For Ella buttons being sold on CafePress that we blogged about here earlier.
