(Jen went to court on simple violation charges...like too many animals and not the correct filing paperwork. But not on the abuse because the Humane Society stated in court they were taken care of by Jen (yeah right!).) Being from the other side of the pond I'm not familiar with your state or fed. laws but as she was not prosecuted for cruelty is she banned from keeping animal as happens here in cruelty cases or just had the number of animals she can keep at home limited.
