The Mississippi Supreme Court upholds a 9-year sentence for an Adams County man convicted of dogfighting. Tommie Queen was convicted on three of the nine felonious dogfighting charges he faced in late 2019. He was sentenced to the maxiumum penalty at the time, three years on each of the charges. Queen’s attorney had appealed, arguing the ASPCA investigator who was presented as an expert on animal cruelty and dogfighting shouldn’t have been allowed to testify and that there wasn’t enough evidence to support the conviction. The Supreme Court disagreed.
