Jason Meduna guilty of starving and killing dozens of wild horses and burros
A Morrill County, Nebraska rancher convicted of letting more than 200 wild horses and burros starve is scheduled for a parole hearing Wednesday at the Lincoln Community Corrections Center. 44-year-old Jason Meduna was convicted in January of last year of 145 counts of cruel neglect of an animal resulting in injury, illness or death.
Meduna was ordered to serve 40 months to 10 years in prison by District Court Judge Leo Dobrovolny, who also stated that Meduna could not reside with any animals for 30 years.
The starving horses were discovered on Meduna’s Three-Strikes Ranch south of Alliance in April, 2009. Law enforcement removed the ailing animals from the ranch and transported them to the Morrill County Fairgrounds in Bridgeport. Over 30 animals were found dead at the ranch.

I only hope that the parole board does the right thing and listens to the letters and comments by all the people. Grandma Gregg has the right idea, he is already locked up, put him in solatary confinement and throw away the key!

Looks like he may be paroled….but not out yet. If another state will take him, monitor him… Meduna wants out of Nebraska. His parole is “PENDING.” http://www.kneb.com/news/index.php?more=mz7ryxju&mid=5128
