Despite Hawaiian Humane Society’s case work as well the expert testimony we provided and a determined felony

prosecutor, Judge Richard Perkins acquitted the defendant

on the grounds of mental disease.

Her child has been returned to her and she is allowed to own animals.

Special thanks to the Prosecutor’s Office

for their willingness to champion this case.
