An Ohio woman who ate a cat in a viral video that fueled rumors of Haitian migrants eating pets was sentenced to one year in prison on Monday, as a judge hit out at her for the gruesome act.
Allexis Ferrell, 27, was arrested at a housing complex in Canton on August 16, when she was caught on police body camera footage crouching on all fours and biting into a cat.
Police later determined that Ferrell had smashed the cat's head with her foot and then began to eat it, according to a police report obtained by the Canton Repository.
'I did observe blood on Allexis' feet, hands and fur on her lips,' an officer who responded to the scene wrote in the report.
Ferrell, a mother-of-three, was indicted on charges of cruelty to companion animals in August, Fox 8 reports.
She initially pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity, but changed her plea on Monday after a psychological report determined that she was able to understand court proceedings and assist in her own defense.
Yet the report also determined that Ferrell is irritable, aggressive, deceitful, lacks remorse, shows a reckless disregard for the safety of others and fails to conform to social norms with respect to law-abiding behavior by repeatedly performing criminal acts, according to the Repository.
'To me, you represent quite a danger to your community,' Stark County Common Pleas Judge Frank Forchione told Ferrell at the sentencing hearing on Monday.
'This is repulsive to me,' he continued. 'I mean that anyone would do this to an animal.
'And an animal's like a child. I don't know if you understand that or not.

This Judge enters a personal opinion and taints the case?
She is not Haitian.
being a cat lover, i personally think the death penalty should apply to anyone who deliberately tortures or maims a cat ... i think house cats are one of God’s special creatures ...
I’m in your camp.🐱👍
"What's the big deal?"
Never trust a man that equates animals with man because he will equate man with animals. It is this mindset that gave us the vax lockdowns and the holocaust.
The animal or the truck?
I feel the same. How people go crazy when an animal is hurt or killed but shrug it off when similar is done to a person.
Yet the report also determined that Ferrell is irritable, aggressive, deceitful, lacks remorse, shows a reckless disregard for the safety of others and fails to conform to social norms with respect to law-abiding behavior by repeatedly performing criminal acts, according to the Repository.
That is a bit sanctimonious. No, animals do not have human rights. But, domestic ones are in our power and therefore, we owe them protection. Like we protect our own young.
My family includes my pets.
Will Ferrell?
Time to post that song again!

I wonder why she wasn’t found mentally incompetent.
because she wasnt
Agree.
High on drugs?
If she had gotten pregnant and waited until the last trimester to have her born child killed, she’d gotten no punishment at all in several states.
LOLZ. Brilliant. LMAO.
