44-year-old Kristy Howell was caught having two dead dogs in her garage at her Sherwood Hills Drive residence on June 12th. On that day, officers responded to an animal cruelty call at the residence, and upon arrival, they spoke with Emily Goodfield, an animal control officer. Goodfield informed the officers that two dogs were found deceased in the garage of the house, and she suspected that the dogs had died from starvation. Officers then contacted Joshua Howell, who stated that his ex-wife, Kristy, is the only person who lives in the house and has guardianship of the dogs. Officers were unable to contact Kristy, so a warrant was issued. Kristy was caught and taken into custody for two counts of aggravated animal cruelty on June 17th.
