Daughter Charged After Mother’s Dog-Attack Death
Jessica Hoff, 47, faces charges of criminal negligence and aggravated animal abuse following the death of her 76-year-old mother, LaVonne, who suffered a fatal dog attack while left unattended. The attack involved several of Hoff’s 54 dogs, many of whom were found living in unsanitary conditions. Hoff, who allegedly left her dementia-stricken mother requiring 24-hour care alone, is currently being held on a $50,000 bond. A court appearance is scheduled for Thursday.
