EUCLID, Ohio — A woman accused of beating a baby deer to death with a shovel after finding it in her flower garden has been sentenced to 80 hours of community service.

Seventy-six-year-old Dorothy Richardson of the Cleveland suburb of Euclid pleaded no contest Thursday to one misdemeanor count of animal abuse and was found guilty by a municipal court judge, who also ordered Richardson to pay a $500 fine.

Richardson says she became frightened when she saw the fawn in her garden on June 15 and had meant to shoo it away with the shovel.

Earlier, she pleaded not guilty to two animal abuse counts. One charge was dropped in exchange for her new, no contest plea.

80 hours huh? She should be forced to go out and rebuild habitat that was lost during home construction for 80 days. I don't care if she is 76, there's no excuse for this kind of butt****ery.



She beat Bambi to death.:cry: Bambi isn't scary.

There are people who are deathly afraid of animals, all animals, even the cute ones. I feel bad for her if she is one of these people.


If that's the case she should have went back into her house until it left.

A fawn is less dangerous than an Elk..if she had seen that she most likely would have been trampled to death, but the fawn, she could have just walked a few feet to it and shoo'd if off, no harm done. Besides isn't is illegal to kill a fawn or doe anyway? Regardless if it's hunting or right in your back yard?


As a former ohioan,,I can answer this. Deer can reach troublesome numbers in some parts of Ohio and do in fact cause many accidents. I am an admirer of deer and we had a family of them that regularly visited our yard so I am not particularly PRO HUNT, but it isnt illegal to kill them in ohio because they are so overpopulated.


Ohio like all states have a legal method of take and there's not a state in the union where a shovel is a legal method. The truth of this is, the fawn was eatin her flowers and it pissed the stupid old bat off. I only wish it were a cougar!

Deer aren't susceptible to rabies! They are however susceptible to a host of other diseases and viruses.

There is a HUGE difference between meaning to shoo something and beating it to death. noway

Although the woman apparently had no reason to kill the dear, she had every right to because it was on her property. (would this be an issue if she killed a cockroach? Not hardly.)

ttyl!

That guy wanted to film himself being attacked by an ELK so he poured cow elk estrus on himself, he's lucky that buck showed up and not a bull! this video is a few years old, I remember seeing this on discovery or animal planet, it was also on "when animals attack" which is a ridiculous show BTW. Now a dominant buck will defend his territory against intruders...including humans. This fawn and even if the doe were near by neither one of em were a threat, she was just mad cause it was eating her flowers.
