Summary
Allexis Ferrell, a 27-year-old Ohio woman, was sentenced to one year in prison for killing and attempting to eat a cat.
The case gained global attention after it was falsely linked to Haitian immigrants in Springfield, Ohio, by Donald Trump and JD Vance, despite Ferrell being a U.S. citizen from Canton, 170 miles away.
The baseless claims were widely debunked by authorities.
Ferrell, a mother of three, was found competent to stand trial and requested treatment for substance abuse.
Judge Frank Forchione called the crime “repulsive” and sentenced her to the maximum term.
Department of miserable warehousing until you make it out and are held at arm’s length by society for being an ex-con for the rest of your life.
