Riding With Cat Killers

I had heard rumblings from the Braddocks at WGI, something about this girl Allison I used to teach back in 2001 & 2002 and worked with more recently down in Boca. Apparently there was a rumor going around that she was in jail. Allison was always a sweet, well-mannered girl, so I thought it was some kind of inside joke or they were speaking in codes as they're known to do. But just the other day I received this article in my inbox, and I was stunned.



Apparently Allison had fled her apartment and left her two cats behind. Long story short, two long and foodless months later the police break in a find a grim scene... in their words...

"...her cats clawed up the apartment in a frantic search for food as they starved for up to a month before they died. The corpses then rotted in the filthy apartment about a month before an apartment manager found them."

Allison. Really?

I read on to find that each count of felony cruelty to animals carries up to five years in prison.

Here's the last time I saw Allison back in January 2008. She drove me from Boca to Braddock.



Looks like we were having fun. This is just further proof that everyone in Florida is bonkers. Everyone.
