You might remember our coverage on

the County's Animal Shelter, and how
excited the county was about adding the
first ever adoption specialist to the
payroll.

Sherry Slaughter came with
experience, formerly volunteering at
the Floyd County Humane Society.

The goal was to have Slaughter go
into schools and teach responsible pet
ownership, as well as extend hours at
the shelter.

That's why county leaders tell us
they hope to have the position filled
as soon as possible.

Cassell will face charges that
include money laundering and

Judge James Turk will ultimately
decide, but yesterday said he's not

sure about moving it anywhere.
