Woman who k!lled and ate a cat in a viral video sentenced to 1-year in prison

A 27-year-old woman in the US who k!lled and ate a cat has been sentenced to one year in jail.  According to the New York Post, Allexis Ferrell committed the gruesome act in August outside her home in Ohio.  A bodycam footage from police officers who reached her house showed the 27-year-old on all fours outdoors eating the cat as horrified neighbours looked on.  “What did you do? Why did you kill the cat?” a police officer is heard asking the woman in the clip.    On Monday, Stark Country Common Pleas Judge Frank Forchione called Ferrell a national embarrassment. “You’ve embarrassed this county. You’ve embarrassed this nation. More importantly, you’ve embarrassed yourself,” the judge said, per the outlet.   “To me, you present quite a danger to our community. This is repulsive to me. I mean, that anyone would do this to an animal. And an animal’s like a child. I don’t know if you understand that or not. I can’t express the disappointment, shock, disgust that this crime has brought to me. I don’t know what could prompt anyone to want to eat a cat,” Mr Forchione continued.   The judge sentenced Ferrell to one year in jail after she pleaded guilty to a felony charge of animal cruelty.  According to the Post, her one-year sentence will be added to a separate 18-month sentence she is facing for two previous crimes including a theft in 201 and a child endangerment case from last year.   Stark County Prosecutor Chelsea Small called the cat incident disturbing. “It’s one of the most disturbing cases that I’ve seen as a prosecutor,” she said.The post Woman who k!lled and ate a cat in a viral videosentenced to 1-year in prison appeared first on Linda Ikeji Blog.
