That’s the point, and the fact is all you (and seriously without prejudice of course) animal lovers should realize that these people are not level headed, no matter how far you seem to think they are wrong and that you have a right to judge accordingly. If it were even more 'obvious' to you folks that the person was a bit off the wall, say the woman had Down Syndrome, then it would be "OK" for her to act this way because you would feel a bit bad about judging them then. I will never understand. Yet everyone keeps complaining about the dogs when people were also dealt the same cards. I do not understand folks that believe they are so caring when they say lock her in a cage. That is just as freaking cruel...Folks, this woman has no clue what she was doing, be a bit more humane yourselves. Good lord, folks complain about whacking rats because it is "inhumane", but yet treating another human so badly with unfair judgment is any better? Get real people, Have a heart. You sound horrible, honestly.

Don't punish her, put her in a mental ward to get some help, she's obviously wrong in the head. What she did does disturb me quite deeply, but I think if she was well she wouldn't have let things go that badly.

The part i dont understand, where are you guys getting that she needs help??? I cant find it lol, but if she is ill then i could understand that, but it doesnt say that she is. There are people that like animals and they go over bored, they get so many pets that in the end they have no money to feed them selves, children and the animals. It does happen, but the person just keeps her mouth shut and dont tell anyone cause they dont want to get charged for animal curelty(sp). But, yes if she is ill(dont want to use mental, cause its a strong word,IMO) i could understand that she did this cause she thought it was right. If we were to reserach on the internet to see how other animals are abused, its just sick, these people werent ill they did this for fun and they think its amusing.....People would burn dogs, put oil on them and light them. Has anyone seen the Toronto humane society(THS) tv show, they always play the same one over and over. Anyone remember about the cats??? this person left more then a dozen cats in a house, with fish tanks. They abandened the house, and wooded it up, theses cats were suffering, and this person ran way from the problem, leaving them to stave.

I not saying that some people are full out wrong and know they are, but given these circumstances as a whole, not just the animals, you can only have one thing to come up with. There are some underlining mental/emotional/rational problems involved. I know of folks that are just plain cruel. Some folks are just cruel and that is that, and yes even I have felt very upset in this sort of manner in about the same way. But there is a line to be drawn at where to place absolute hatred at a person. I am not perfect, and no one is. Just that some folks can just seem to be odd at how they can rationalize judgement at another.

"Several animals also were found dead in their cages, and one dog was found dead under the driver's seat of the vehicle."

If this is not mentaly sick then I am sorry folks nothing is. Even if this woman would have let these dogs die, that happens I know sad fact but it happens. How many of these people drive with a rotting stinking carcus under their seat rather than just drop it in a ditch? You still think she is mentally sane?
And great post C.mpyrrhus I agree whole heartly.
