woman was arrested in Nebraska last week after allegedly drowning her 3-week-old puppy in an airport bathroom when she tried and failed several times to sneak the young doberman on her plane.
Cynthia Anderson, 56, was arrested on Friday and charged with with a felony count of animal cruelty.
Police say the Edgewater, Florida resident tried to board a flight out of Central Nebraska Regional Airport on Thursday with two small dogs in crates and three young puppies.
Following U.S. flight regulations, workers at the airport barred Anderson from boarding her flight because dogs younger than eight weeks old are not allowed to fly.
'Their eyes weren't even open,' said Grand Island Police Captain Dean Elliott.
Anderson allegedly handed off two of the puppies to her parents who live in western Nebraska, and tried to board a flight the next day with the two older dogs in cages and the remaining puppy which she tried to hide in her carry-on bag.

The racism surrounding pits is that bad.

Though, if this was 20 or so years in the past, back when the Doberman was the "Evil Breed'" then you'd be seeing people defend it.

It's a bit interesting just what actions people will defend when they let hatred go to their heads.

Though it's more of a 'face that would scare small children' type scary.

As it is, I don't think she can really complain about wearing jail stripes.

I'm not too far behind her in age but look ten years younger! Not that I didn't bake when younger, I just pulled the plug on it a long time ago. She looks like a smoker, too.

However, there are about 5 billion other people on the planet ahead of her that deserve it more.

Hope she doesn't mind waiting...

Was she trying to get them past security, too?

Who would probably not bat an eye at drowning a puppy in an airport sink. Unless President Obama did it.
