State police arrested a New Jersey woman after they reportedly uncovered 44 dead dogs in her home and 130 others living in “deplorable” conditions on her property.
Investigators were inspecting the Shamong Township home of Donna Roberts, 65, Tuesday when they said they made the gruesome discovery.
Detectives found “evidence of animal cruelty inflicted upon various breeds of dogs on the property,” New Jersey State Police wrote in a Facebook post Wednesday. “The odor of animal feces and ammonia permeated the inside of the residence, which caused several of the responders to experience dizziness and nausea.”
