The Palm Beach Post from West Palm Beach, Florida • Page 65

1 A THE PALM BEACH POST SUNDAY, DECEMBER 30, 2001 Number arrested made case deputy says DOGFIGHT From 1C should be dropped for the same reason. He also claims the search warrant was based on an uncorroborated tip. But Alston missed a court appearance and the motion was not argued. A felony charge remains against Frank Huggins, 27. Huggins did not live at the address 4116 Plumosa Road in suburban West Palm Beach and so the search warrant arguments don't apply to him, according to Edmondson.

The seventh man charged with a felony in connection to the dogfight had his charges dropped for a different reason. Oscar Lyden Knowles, 34, originally was charged with a misdemeanor. In October 2000, the state attorney's office decided not to prosecute on the misdemeanor and instead charged Knowles with felony cruelty to animals. But the charge was dropped because Knowles was never arrested and booked on the felony, allowing the speedy trial limit of 175 days to elapse on the misdemeanor charge. Lindsey, again, had to dismiss the charges.

Of the 55 people charged with misdemeanors, most made pleas and received probation, Edmondson said. Prosecutors had sought jail time, he said. Sheriff's deputies Reginald Mickins, 34, and Alton Harrell, 31, attended the dogfight and were charged with misdemeanors. Both pleaded guilty to attending a dogfight. Edmondson said they were sentenced to year of probation and community service and had to pay a fine to an animal rights organization.

Mickins and Harrell were fired by the sheriff's office but an internal review board recommended A felony charge remains against Frank Huggins, 27, who did not live at the address. that they keep their jobs and the sheriff agreed. Kovacs said the whole case was "overwhelming" because of the number of people arrested. Deputies sought the search warrant after hearing complaints from neighbors about loud parties and men walking around with guns. She said she's now aware of the search warrant statute.

But she wishes the law could simply be done away with. The dogfight was very organized, she said. It took place in a building the size of a two-car garage and onlookers were packed inside. Some of the $85,000 seized by deputies was eventually forfeited to the sheriff's office and some was returned in settlements with the arrested men, she said. "There was a lot of money being wagered," Kovacs said.

The sum didn't surprise Dale Riedel of the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals, which is based in New York. Riedel, who was a police officer for 27 years, is now chief of the humane law enforcement division which investigates 4,000 animal cruelty complaints a year. He said there is "big money" in dogfighting, which is why people attend. New York state has a similar law about search warrants for animal cruelty cases, he said. In New York, the search warrant can't be served after 9 p.m, unless a judge gives permission.

charge in priest beating The Associated Press PENSACOLA A woman charged with beating a Roman Catholic priest with a cement block could face a murder charge because of his death nearly 11 months later in Ireland, a prosecutor said. The Rev. Oliver Barrett, a native of Ireland, died Friday at Holy Ghost Missionary College; in Dublin. He was 81. Delta Sue Allen, 33, was accused of attacking Barrett on Feb.

5 at St. Anne's Church in Brownsville, a Pensacola suburb. He was beaten two days after giving Allen money when she told him a fake story about a sick child. She claimed she needed the money because her 6-year-old daughter needed a kidney transplant, said parishioner Ruth Burnett. Police said there was no such child and that Allen had been using the story to scam churches in the Pensacola area.

Burnett said she never asked the priest how much money he gave the woman. Allen was charged with attempted felony murder, robbery with a deadly weapon and aggravated battery. Assistant State Attorney David Rimmer said prosecutors would look into the possibility of a murder charge if a medical expert can prove Barrett died from injuries he suffered in the attack. The next step in Allen's case is a Jan. 10 mental competency hearing.

She was diagnosed with a bipolar schizo-affective disorder and has pleaded insanity. One psychologist has concluded she can stand trial if she takes medication but another has recommended hospital treatment. MAXWELL B.
