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.

In 1961, a half dozen authorities raided the property of research breeder, Lester Brown. Frank McMahon, chief investigator of The HSUS, was instrumental in Brown's arrest on a charge of cruelty to animals, based on evidence at the southeast Maryland site.
The conditions he helped to uncover at that time led to Brown's conviction on charges of cruelty to animals. References |
