CONVICTED: Was justice served?
more information on voting
When you vote, you are voting on whether or not the punishment fit the crime, NOT on the severity of the case itself. If you feel the sentence was very weak, you would vote 1 star. If you feel the sentence was very strong, you would vote 5 stars.
Please vote honestly and realistically. These ratings will be used a a tool for many future programs, including a "Peoples Choice" of best and worst sentencing, DA and judge "report cards", and more. Try to resist the temptation to vote 1 star on every case, even if you feel that 100 years in prison isnt enough.
Case #13998 Rating: 3.8 out of 5
Monkeys stolen from wild animal park Eighty Four, PA (US)Incident Date: Thursday, Nov 1, 2007 County: Washington
Disposition: Convicted
Defendant/Suspect: Michael Naylor
A teenager with a history of animal abuse has been sentenced to two to five years in prison for taking two monkeys from a wildlife compound.
Nineteen-year-old Michael Naylor, of Rices Landing, Greene County, was sentenced yesterday for burglary and related charges in Washington County Court.
The monkeys, named Gwen and Mona, were taken in November from Wild World of Animals in Washington County. They were returned several hours later.
Police say Mr. Naylor and another teen apparently thought marijuana was being grown at the compound.
Mr. Naylor apologized, but Judge John DiSalle was unmoved. He said Mr. Naylor has a history of animal abuse and was charged with drunken driving and exploding pipe bombs in mailboxes while on bail in the monkey case. References« PA State Animal Cruelty Map « More cases in Washington County, PA
