Thanks it wasn't working for me.
That sucks for the cats. I don't know if she is lying, but I don't think she
did it. If she was Miss I hate cats this would have of come up a longtime
ago. I think they should find this friend that was suppose to look after these
cats.

Dale Bozzio On Trial For Cat Cruelty Charges
Posted on Wednesday March 4, 2009 at 05:32 PM _2_

Dale Bozzio, singer for ‘80s New Wave band _Missing Persons_
(http://www.pollstar.com/resultsArtist.aspx?ID=32406&SortBy=Date) and former Playboy Bunny,
is facing 12 misdemeanors in a trial for animal cruelty charges that began
last week.
A neighbor of Bozzio’s kicked off the trial Feb. 23 by testifying that she
observed the singer’s house with dead cats lying around and live animals
surrounded by filth, according to the Conway Daily Sun.
Last October police raided the singer’s house she was leasing in Ossipee,
N.H., which resulted in 12 cats being put down. The paper noted that the law
enforcement investigation was aided by the Lakes Region Humane Society,
according to a police release.
Back in October Bozzio pleaded not guilty to three misdemeanor counts of
animal cruelty and that the nine additional misdemeanor charges were for the
latest nine cats to be euthanized, police said.
Bozzio, who also sang on the Frank Zappa album Joe's Garage and has toured
as a solo artist, said she left the cats in the care of a friend.
Joe Nelson, the singer’s manager, told the Conway Daily Sun that Bozzio was
in the middle of a move and a friend identified only as Deborah was supposed
to be looking after her pets. Bozzio said the friend never showed up.
“She's totally pissed. This woman promised her,” he said. “[Bozzio’s] not
even talking to her anymore.”
Nelson said he didn’t think Bozzio would go to jail and that she would
probably do a benefit appearance for an animal rescue after the case.
“These are a bunch of trumped up charges,” Nelson told the paper. “It's a
bunch of small-town cops who don't have anything better to do.”
He added that, “if there are two things she loves more than life itself,
they are kids and animals.”
Bozzio’s lawyer, Dennis O'Connor, echoed Nelson’s comments, telling the
paper, “I do agree with [Nelson] that there are some circumstances that are
behind this,” he said. “She is an animal lover and an advocate for animals.”
Bozzio said her strategy is to call on _Duran Duran_
(http://www.pollstar.com/resultsArtist.aspx?ID=61183&SortBy=Date) and other music industry associates
to help her fight the charges.
The trial will resume March 9.
