[Dailydrool] Annie's abuser has his day in court

[Leanne Potts]

Randall Treadway had his day in court today in Jonesborough, Tenn. He didn't
take the penalty offered to him by the judge and ACO. Treadway told the
judge he wanted a lawyer and a hearing. The judge told him to come back
April 1, and he would be first on the docket, no delays. "If you don't have
a lawyer at that time, you'll have to represent yourself," the judge told
him.

Treadway's mother, Linda, who owned the house where BRBR found Annie, has
also been charged with animal cruelty. She has hired a defense attorney.

Both Treadways face up to a $2,500 fine and a year in jail.

Here is the official update <http://www.firstgiving.com/help_annie>, with a

Please sign it if you haven't already done so. Let's let the Washington
County DA know we want Randall Treadway punished.

Thanks for all the donations, cards, emails, and the drool. You guys rock.
