I'm glad he is pleading guilty. I am anxiously awaiting the sentencing.
7/14/08 Attorneys say a man accused of 34 counts of animal cruelty has changed his tune, and will plead guilty to the charges.
Authorities arrested West Yellowstone resident John Hessert back in January, after Police say he kept 33 sled dogs in an unsafe environment with no shelter, food or water.
The animals were put in foster care, and after passing medical evaluations last month, they were returned to Hessert's father in Maine.
Hessert is scheduled to enter a change of plea and be sentenced on the cruelty charges next week.
