A Florida woman has been sentenced to more than five years in prison after being caught on camera abusing a Husky. Elizabeth Jaimes admitted to beating the dog with a rubber mallet, as recorded on a hidden camera while living in Tampa with her boyfriend's family.
Prosecutors and the dog's owner, Kimberly Johns, urged the judge to deliver a harsh sentence for the abuse inflicted on the Husky named Maya. Johns expressed the emotional toll the abuse had on Maya, stating that the dog lived in fear during the 151 days of mistreatment.
