Tammy Grimes Sentence

ELP Information Bulletin (23rd of February 2008)

Dear friends

First off I would like to thank everyone who responded to ELP's information request earlier today asking if anyone knew what sentence the American animal rights activist, Tammy Grimes, had received following her conviction for resucing a dying dog from horrific conditions.

ELP can report that yesterday Tammy was sentenced to 300 hours community service and ordered to pay the cost of the trial (estimated to be $1,700 dollars). The Judge also ordered Tammy to remove everything 'Doogie' related (the name of the saved dog) off any website she has control or influence over.

ELP understands that Tammy and her supporters will be appealing against this extremely harsh sentence, especially as all Tammy did was save the life of a dying dog which was being kept in horrific conditions.
