Gerry Trupia appeared in Troupsburg Town Court yesterday regarding her guilty plea to two counts of misdemeanor cruelty to animals. News reports are at the Wellsville Daily Reporter at http://www.wellsvilledaily.com/state_news/x776483159/Troupsburg-horse-cruelty-sentence-delayed and at WETM-TV at ht...

It will be interesting to see what the court determines to be the final restitution amount in Trupia's hearing scheduled for next Wednesday, December 10.

It seems that preliminary figures indicate that Trupia owes over $60,000.00.

Thanks, everyone, for your responses and your interest in Millions. Just got to a computer to check Millions' situation and am very relieved to learn that his future is assured.

Thanks, Marli, for posting the good news!

If only they could all have happy endings like this one.

It boggles the mind to think that TWO people did this together --- neither one looked at the other and said that this needs to stop or we should get help. Bridled and everyone, Let's not forget that Gerry Trupia and Maryann Blazejewski did not exist in a vacuum. There were people close to both of t...

El camino, in order to ask for help, a person must first acknowledge that there is a problem. Sadly, judging by her recent post on another forum, Gerry isn't there yet.

She may be responsible for the expenses, but if she doesn't have the money than she can't pay it. My guess is since her mom owns the farm, she will be filing bankruptcy shortly and POOF all of her problems will go away. That raises an interesting hypothetical: can a person file for bankruptcy twice?
