Unfortunately, not one stolen by animal control, but I guess it is a step in the right direction.
In February, the mayor of Alice, Texas, agreed to take care of the neighbor’s dog in their absence. Upon their return she lied to them and told them the dog was dead and she had buried it, all the while hiding the dog outside of town at her sister’s ranch.

The hearing was held April 25, and the stolen dog was ordered returned to his owners. Unfortunately, the dog’s family was not awarded court costs as they had asked.
The sisters are facing criminal charges and could face as much as 10 years in jail.
Now really. As mayor, this woman could have helped many animals. She won’t be helping any in jail. Why on earth would she steal a dog? We just don’t get it.
