Farmer Dragged Pig to Trial

A former town official in Eden is facing animal cruelty charges after allegedly dragging a live pig behind an ATV, claiming he shot it thinking it was dead — only to finish the job after it started moving again. A neighbor’s video shows the pig struggling the whole time, and authorities say he didn’t stop until after dragging it into the woods. Hill, who once held animal control duties, pleaded not guilty last summer and is set to go to trial in October. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
