Former Green Bay Packers running back and third-round draft pick LeShon Johnson is facing some serious charges.
94 dogs were seized from Johnson, facing 21 counts, in 2024. If convicted, Johnson could serve a maximum of five years in prison, carrying a $250,000 fine on each count.
“Animal abuse is cruel, depraved, and deserves severe punishment,” Attorney General Pamela Bondi said in a statement via ESPN. “The Department of Justice will prosecute this case to the fullest extent of the law and will remain committed to protecting innocent animals from those who would do them harm.
