A Frederick County woman could face animal cruelty charges after officials found 192 live cats and seven dead ones in a mobile home.
Sheriff’s Office Major Robert Eckman said 58-year-old Linda McLaughlin is the owner of the cat-filled double-wide trailer. Eckman said the animals living in McLaughlin’s home also showed the effects of neglect and inhumane conditions.
