一名怀俄明人于2024年将一只被刺杀的狼带到一家酒吧,并定于3月审判,之后面临虐待动物的指控。 A Wyoming man faces animal cruelty charges after bringing a muzzled wolf into a bar in 2024, with trial set for March.

科迪·罗伯茨(Cody Roberts)的动物虐待重罪审判将于3月进行, Cody Roberts’ felony animal cruelty trial is set to proceed in March after a Sweetwater County judge rejected his defense’s bid to dismiss charges. 此案起因于2024年2月，罗伯茨带着一只戴着口套、戴项圈的狼进入丹尼尔酒吧，并被拍摄了数小时一动不动的画面。 The case stems from February 2024, when Roberts brought a muzzled, collared wolf into a Daniel bar, where it was filmed motionless for hours. 尽管怀俄明州法律允许杀害掠食性动物,但法官裁定,这并不能全面豁免虐待指控,并指出法规只列出了四项具体行动。 Though Wyoming law allows killing predatory animals, the judge ruled this does not grant blanket immunity from cruelty charges, noting the statute lists only four specific actions. 检察官认为罗伯茨造成了不应有的痛苦,引用了视频证据和一位野生动物生物学家的证词,他说狼身上有痛苦的迹象。 Prosecutors argue Roberts caused undue suffering, citing video evidence and testimony from a wildlife biologist who said the wolf showed signs of distress. Roberts不认罪,如果被判有罪,将面临长达两年的监禁。 Roberts, who pleaded not guilty, faces up to two years in prison if convicted. 陪审员选拔定于2月12日进行。 Jury selection is scheduled for February 12.
