Fort Pierce woman arrested for dozens of animals in her home, many dead and malnurished
A Fort Pierce woman has been arrested and charged with numerous counts of animal cruelty after St. Lucie County Sheriff's Deputies found a sick home full of animals, some dead and starving, with an odor of death reeking from it.
Deputies arrived at the home on North Kings Highway after the landlord of the home noticed a foul smell coming from it. The landlord also said he hadn't seen his tenant, Michele Nunziata, in several days.
As deputies tried to get Nunziata to come back to the home and allow them inside, she repeatedly told deputies over the phone that she was "too busy." When she did arrive home and let deputies inside she admitted to burying dogs in her front yard, though deputies could not find grave sites.
When Animal Control Officers arrived they took inventory of the home and found:
3 very slim Pit Bulls
A Blood Hound suffering from malnutrition
2 Cockatiels without food or water
2 ferrets without food or water
1 Black Wolf and 1 Doberman Pincher locked in a kennel laying in feces with no food or water, suffering from malnutrition
3 dead dogs locked in a kennel, decaying
Deputies and Animal Control Officers also found rabbits caged without food or water and a goose.
Nunziata has been charged with 6 felony accounts of animal cruelty as well as 11 Misdemeanors.
