Not to mention the same county that stole Ron Mason’s cats from him….
The head of Adelanto’s animal control office has been charged with multiple counts of animal cruelty after investigators said he systematically drowned dozens of kittens over four months last year.
Kevin Murphy, 36, was charged Monday with six counts of killing, maiming and abusing animals and faces up to six years in prison if he is convicted.
If he allegedly killed dozens of kittens, why only 6 counts?
Murphy, who was not arrested, will be arraigned May 19. He and another unidentified city employee were placed on paid administrative leave last week, City Manager Jim Hart said. Murphy is the only one being charged at this time.
We wonder if Ron Mason was placed on paid administrative leave. Somehow we think not.

For the kittens’ sake, we really hope this person is not guilty of these charges, and we do realize that everything in the paper is not true…see the Ron Mason story, and many other incidents of peoples’ pets being stolen.
