The long and short of it is, Greenburg was sentenced to 18 months in jail, 9 months suspended. Hussain was sentenced to 90 days in jail, both got 3 years probation and their animals were removed from their home. Greenburg started crying in front of the Judge.
The Officer on the scene tried to revive the dog giving it mouth to mouth resuscitation but the animal didn't survive. Also, it should be known that the sentences listed above were the final offer by Judge Davis at 6:30 PM. This is what we were told.
That being said, GOOD for Judge Davis! He is the voice of the animals and based on these scumbags records this is the least they should get. Let it be heard loud and clear, you mistreat animals in Wicomico County, your going to jail!

On August 8, 2010 at approximately 5:22 pm, Officers of the Salisbury Police received a call to respond to the parking lot of the Centre at Salisbury for the report of canines secured in a dangerously hot vehicle. Upon arrival the officers met with witnesses who pointed out a vehicle in the parking lot that contained six (6) canines which appeared to be in duress due to the heat.
The windows of the vehicle were up with only one inch of space at the top. The officers observed that the canines were having health issues and made entry into the vehicle. The temperature in the vehicle was found to be in excess of 105 degrees. One dog was found to be unresponsive and later died from the exposure to the heat. The remaining dogs were given water and air conditioning and slowly revived. The officers located the owners of the canines and found that the dogs had been left in the vehicle for over three (3) hours. Both owners were taken into custody
