Sentence: Shane Haggard faces a $1,000 dollar fine on each count, which will be suspended. Judge Carnaroli sentenced Haggard to six months in jail on each count, all suspended and 2 years probation on each count, which will run consecutively.

The judge said if Haggard doesn't comply with probation, he will have to forfeit all his animals. Haggard needs to downsize his herd within 90 days to only 5 animals for his family members. He'll have to butcher or sell the 7 cows he owns, along with selling his other 27 horses. The judge said he can't own anymore livestock than those five animals for the next four years.

The maximum penalty for animal cruelty is a $5,000 fine and 180 days in jail on each count. ... more...
