PITTSBURGH ~ Tiger Ranch Judge: “Absence of care, food, water, rises to level of torturous conduct.” May 08, 2008 10:34 PM
Please Note http://tinyurl.com/4dfttm, PITTSBURGH ~ Tiger Ranch Judge: In the absence of duty, care, food, water and helping the animals get to it ... this rises to the level of torturous conduct. ~ Judge Suzanne Blaschak imposed bond conditions barring Linda Bruno from being around animals (Please excuse duplicate message(s).)
The operator of the Tiger Ranch cat shelter yesterday was ordered to stand trial on hundreds of animal abuse charges stemming from a raid on her Frazer farm.
Linda Bruno, 45, remains free on bond while awaiting trial on 208 misdemeanor counts of cruelty to animals, and 385 summary counts of cruelty.
District Judge Suzanne Blaschak, who presided at a three-day preliminary hearing at the Allegheny County Courthouse, Downtown, ordered Ms. Bruno to adhere to bond conditions that prohibit her from being around animals.
Veterinarian Becky L. Morrow testified yesterday about the morbid physical condition of more than 100 cats that had to be euthanized. She also testified that necropsies on dozens of frozen, dead cats found on the property showed they also suffered from the same and similar symptoms that made the others ill.
For the better part of four hours, Dr. Morrow spelled out diagnoses by her and other veterinarians of the sick animals.
The most fatal problem found in the cats was a deadly virus, she said. Other maladies included dehydration, ulcers on their tongues and limbs, unexplained lesions on their necks, severe periodontal disease and upper respiratory disease.
Only one of the animals seized showed any signs that it had been treated for pain, said the prosecutor, Assistant District Attorney Deborah Jugan.
In the absence of duty, care, food, water and helping the animals get to it ... this rises to the level of torturous conduct, Judge Blaschak ruled.
Donations also will be accepted by mail by writing Tiger Ranch on the envelope or the memo line of the check. Donations can be mailed to PSPCA, 350 E. Erie Ave, Philadelphia, PA 19134.

Tiger Ranch owner faces trial on 593 counts of animal cruelty By Francine Garrone VALLEY NEWS DISPATCH
Linda Bruno, the owner of a Frazer cat sanctuary that has been shut down, walked from an Allegheny County courtroom Tuesday afternoon with her head high despite being portrayed as an irresponsible pet owner. District Judge Suzanne Blaschak ruled Bruno will face trial in Allegheny County Court on 593 counts of cruelty to animals. (more...)
The entire story is here. As I mentioned last time, it has some graphic descriptions and details at points, so keep that in mind if you click.
AH and I read the entire piece. And to be honest, some of that stuff scares me. I mean, there were some serious things wrong with those cats. Things I never - ever - would want to go through. See - he, FP and I all have the same agreement: If its our time, were beyond saving and were absolutely miserable and in pain, just do it. Get it over with.
In any case, while reading we both laughed out loud at this point. And believe me, theres not much to laugh about on this entire ordeal. But check this out:
Following testimony, Valasek (the defense attorney) asked the court to dismiss the case due to the woman sitting beside him not being Linda Bruno, but Lin Marie.
This is not Linda Bruno, he said. This is Lin Marie. On Dec. 17, 1998, she changed her legal name from Linda Stover to Lin Marie after a divorce. Lin Marie is the name on the deed at Tiger Ranch.
Blaschak (the judge) said she had no problem with the alias name. All court documents refer to her as Linda Bruno.
These are not the droids youre looking for.
Your Jedi mind tricks dont work with me, Mr. Valasek.
Geez. Theres grasping at straws and then theres outright desperation and silliness.
