A Texas grand jury allowed her to escape justice when it delivered a verdict of insufficient proof of wrongdoing. HOWEVER, she is not off the hook.
"The Texas veterinarian who escaped criminal charges after bragging on Facebook that she'd killed a cat with a bow and arrow could end up being punished after all.
The Texas State Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners found in a hearing last week that Kristen Lindsey violated its rules. The board will not reveal what, if any, punishment she will face until October, but it has the power to revoke her license"
I was torn about posting this video of Tiger and how he loved to ride on the tractor of his owner - but his memory needs to be held close to all pet lovers.

(2,427 posts)Taking her license is the least they can do. Would ANYONE take their cat to her for treatment? This story makes me all punchy and stuff!

(10,164 posts)Okay, my cat's strictly indoors, but still...it's horrible to contemplate.
Not in the least because if she turned out to get off scot-free, I very much doubt I'd have been able to let it go. I don't think I'd care for prison.
