Print viewGirl sentenced to 30 days for calf clubbing
EVERETT — A 17-year-old girl who helped two friends club 16 calves to death in August told a judge yesterday that she had hoped to become a veterinarian.
The Monroe teen was sentenced to 30 days at Denney Youth Detention Center on three counts of animal cruelty. She also was ordered to complete drug treatment, said Snohomish County Deputy Prosecutor Remy Leonard.
The girl sobbed and apologized to the judge for her role in the attacks. Leonard said the girl, who dreamed of becoming a vet even though she dropped out of school in the sixth grade, said she was high when she and two others attacked the calves at a dairy farm.
A 14-year-old Monroe boy is serving 42 weeks in juvenile jail, and Kevin Broers, 19, was sentenced to 10 months in the case.
