A former prison officer was sentenced to a year in jail recently for crushing five kittens to death in a trash compactor. Ronald Hunlock's offense was 'so offensive and so calculated and so gratuitously cruel it diminishes the humanity of everybody,' Justice Kenneth Lange said. Hunlock, 48, was convicted of aggravated cruelty to animals. He discovered the newborn kittens and their mother in an inmate's cell at Sing Sing last March and ordered the inmate to put them in the compactor. When the inmate refused, Hunlock did it himself. The mother cat escaped. 'I made a bad decision and I'm sorry,' he said. Defense attorney Daniel Gallivan said Hunlock thought the cats were deathly ill. |

Hiring an attorney can present confusing situations for someone. It’s hard to tell whether you’ll get the best service possible in your situation. You likely have a lot of questions. Will your lawyer hand off your matter to someone else? Will your lawyer return your phone calls? It’s hard to know without someone you can trust. If you been hit by a speeding driver in Waco you need a lawyer. People in Central Texas have trusted Dunnam & Dunnam for almost 100 years for their most pressing legal concerns. They understand the value of a good advocate. They’re a family helping Waco families since 1925.
