R&B Singer Jaheim Arrested for Animal Cruelty, Accused of Starving 14 Dogs in His Home; One Found Dead

R&B singer known as Jaheim, is facing a wealth of charges, including animal cruelty charge after police found 6 dogs Monday in half water-filled animal crates in the driveway of a Chamberlain Drive residence and 9 more dogs inside the house in varying stages of emaciation, without access to food and water, Somerset County Prosecutor Michael Robertson said. One mixed-breed Pitbull Terrier had to be euthanized, and the other 14 dogs were examined and released to Long Hill Kennel in the township, the prosecutor said. Jaheim H. Hoagland, 44, was charged with third-degree animal cruelty and failure to provide necessary care to an animal, a disorderly persons offense. He was lodged in the Somerset County Jail pending a Superior Court detention hearing.
