Brandon Kyle Salers |
An Oxford man has been convicted on two counts of killing
livestock after fatally shooting two horses last year.
It took a Talladega County jury about 15 minutes to find
Brandon Kyle Salers guilty of both of the Class C felonies.
Last year, Renee Rice found two of her horses, Penny and
Twinkle, shot to death in her pasture on McIntosh Road. That's in a part of
Oxford that extends into Talladega County.
Twinkle, a paint horse, belonged to Rice's seven-year-old
daughter, and evidence suggested it suffered for awhile before it died of its
wounds.
Salers is now in the Talladega County Jail on $10,000 bond.
He's set to be sentenced April 14 in Talladega. He could get one to 10years in
prison for each count.
