A Freehold man is heading to prison for the next five years after being sentenced Friday for admitting that he caused the deaths of 4 German Shepard puppies in his care in 2020.
Monmouth County Prosecutor Chris Gramiccioni announced Friday that Daniel McDonald, 26, who now lives in Freehold but lived in Howell at the time of the deaths, was charged with four counts of animal cruelty.
McDonald stole a tractor from a home on Monroe Township, stole the three week old puppies on May 12, 2020 from a farm in Franklin Township and brought them to his home at the time in Howell where they later died.
