"Oh, bother!"
I am thinking not. VA law limits your liability for “pets” - dogs, cats, pigs - to their fair-market value at the butcher.
50 years for killing a hog? No way.
Now, for being a psycho, and the drug charges, that I can believe.
LOL!
LOL! Snort. Cough.
It is not a prank, it is called food preparation.
She should have just told the cops her boyfriend stole her X-Box.
Then they would have come and shot the piglet with 20 rounds for free.
Hook, line and sinker.
I bet there is way more to this story.

Psycho woman from hell.
I use a firearm for pigs. I really do.
...so we ate the dog....

Someone was sure thinking fast.
Like the 3 legged pig running around the farm.
When questioned the story came out that the farmer had overturned his tractor in the mud and the pig had somehow dug around his face and saved him.
“Oh”, I said, “did he lose his leg in the accident”?
“Hell NO!”, replied the farmer, “You don’t think we could eat a good old boy like that all at one time do you?”
It is becoming clearly apparent that this society is turning into a complete bunch of wimps and fools. Almost everyone eats chicken, pork, beef, fish, and other meats that they obviously think were manufactured in a plant somewhere. Gosh we have come a long way in such a short time since we used to be hunters and gatherers. I think everyone should be forced to live one year on a farm and see first hand that animals are sustinence, food for humans, beasts of burden, etc....Geeze they are being given the same status as humans now. We slaughtered, yes I used the term intentionally, slaughtered our farm animals for food. Good God, I would be given the death penalty these days for all the animals I slaughtered, butchered, cured, packaged, and ate. So this pig was someone’s pet, fair enough, charge them with destroying someone else’s property, a misdemeanor, fine them fair market value for the porkster, and be done with it. It’s absurd. What is next? PETA gonna start fining me for every ant I step on and kill in the course of a day. They’re freaking animals!
You are aware that serial killers usually start with animals, yes?
Aw, get real. I love animals as much as the next guy, but come on. We bloody slaughter and eat pigs!
And yes, I do think this is unconstitutional.
*shrug* We shoulda named the dog...
Oh my god! Here we go! You gotta be $hittin me to associate this story with serial killers. And most liberals start out being taught in public schools that we must eat our peas because the President says so.
It is widely known and widely common that breakups of couples put children and pets at risk of being hurt or killed.
One side wants the other to suffer pain of loss, and they attack something the other one loves.
It isn’t rocket science, it happens all the time. Everyone who has pets or kids needs to realize their pet could become a target of abuse or death from the other side losing it and trying to get revenge on them.
And for those of you who can’t not bring abortion into any sentence ruling you think is overblown and somehow make the issue about abortion, OF COURSE SHE WON’T GET 50 years. They jacked it up so high that it will be reduced down greatly, but that she will get something.
Animal abuse cases are almost never given any major length of time. Often they are reduced to misdemeanors or probation sentences, they are pitiful what people actually end up with.
They put “up to 50 years” so that hopefully she may get 6 months.
If anything you’d think abortion folks would have more sympathy for animal abuse caes because yo’re talking about (albeit non humans) but those most dependent on their masters for everything, and they are turned into pawns in order to cause incredible pain to someone else. Talk about wicked and just evil, it’s along the same kind of evil that allows people to be so evil as to wipe out their own child.
He didn’t have a pet rabbit. He dodged a bullet by not marrying this one!
50 years is way too much but it isn’t just about killing the animal. It was meant as a terroristic threat.
