Five individuals were arrested Wednesday for their alleged role in running a Florida-based dogfighting operation, the Department of Justice said in a Wednesday press release.
Shane Patrick Sprague, 35, Derek Jedidiah Golson, 38, Haley Cook Murph, 24, David Lee Moser, 36, and James Peek, 67, were named in a 44-count federal indictment accusing them of multiple violations of the Animal Welfare Act and conspiracy to commit those violations.
