Two Alabama cat ladies were convicted on all charges after coaxing stray felines with food in order to trap them for future sterilization, a common practice utilized by approved organizations. The Wetumpka Police Department arrested and charged both 61-year-old Mary Alston and 85-year-old Beverly Roberts with criminal trespassing and other misdemeanors for the incident on June 25. A Wetumpka County judge found the two women guilty on all charges on December 13 and sentenced them to two years of unsupervised probation with an added suspended sentence of 10 days in jail.

Oh thank goodness! you got a couple of America's most Wanted off our streets. What a joke the police are. They wonder why poeple hate them. Another reason why.
America is a joke
The USA is a Fascist country. The USA has always been a Fascist country.
This is a law? Man these officers have no back bone or morale judgement, just think about your job and your actions before continuing because this is pathetic
They locked them in the back of the squad car in the Alabama sunshine. The ladies thought they were gonna die from the heat nobody’s talking about that that has to become illegal.
These ladies are hurting these xats. Great job Officers
Cops are such jerks
Why didnt they just comply?
Imagine threatening a granny who didn't do anythign wrong,,, tough guy…
Doesn't matter if its your job or not, you are human first and these cops are NOT behaving very human right now…
The real animals here are in uniform harassing and arresting old women for feeding cats is outrages from the police who are definitely not here to protect and serve
It literally doesn’t matter what they were doing. If they are trespassing they are trespassing, cops can’t just ignore smaller crimes. If I owned land and someone was on my property trapping cats I would want them arrested too. Gtfo of my property!
Wait……I’m so confused….Are they being arrested Bc they’re spending their own money spaying stray cats and then releasing them? I mean Wtf is the problem here??
Power hungry cop. She touched him, so what? You're an adult, deal with it. They were both acting like children.
This is how far America has fallen.. Tyrants with badges harassing old ladies feeding cats
Im sure that POS cops mom is so proud of him..
Its gonna get ugly… What a brave man
no matter who you are rebellious teenager or stubborn cranky old lady when your ignorant your in for a lot of trouble most of your own fault
As a grown man, the thought of looking an 85 year old woman in eye and saying "it's going to get ugly" if she doesn't do what I want is just sickening. These are the "real heroes," huh? What a joke.
Well thank goodness you got these cat loving Dangerous Criminals off the streets.they should have been Looting like Normal folks do. Right U Tube ? Only Good Democrat Law and Disorder is allowed ! SFC.D.WILSON U.S Airborne Rangers / Cavalry-SPFOR ret.
Police sucks
This is ridiculous. What a waste of time & resources. These cops should be ashamed.
these ladies know all cats are beautiful
Animal control needs to do their job. What a ridiculous city government.
Telling an 85 year old woman it's about to get ugly. Yeah man she's a huge threat.
What a clown show, these women were doing what the city wouldn't and got punished for it. One of the worst ones I've seen..
