I'll be leaving Monday morning, Oct. 17, for Chicago and the sentencing hearing for Diane Eldrup, which will be at the Lake County Courthouse in Waukegan IL. I will finally get to say what is on my heart and mind...hope I can get through it without crying or losing it altogether. I just have to remember that this is in honor & memory of all the dogs who died at Muddy Paws....they deserve a voice in this. Crying will only take away from the impact of my words. This one is for you Lucha, Nina, Beatrice, and the countless others who suffered and died.
