Massachusetts: Lynne Molinari, Elsie Molinari and Sheila Monette found to be hoarding 50 animals in house that was in such bad shape it was condemned

MASSACHUSETTS -- At 99 Champlain St., city inspectors and animal control officials found 50 ANIMALS -- dogs, cats, rats, guinea pigs, rabbits, parrots, a duck and a hamster, said Pamela Peebles, director of the Thomas J. O'Connor Animal Control and Adoption Center.

The conditions in the house were unsanitary, unclean and unsafe, said David Cotter, the city's deputy director of code enforcement.

 
 

The animals were fed, but were living in "squalid conditions" that had not been cleaned in long time, resulting in "stench, filth" and animals being "sticky from being in horrific conditions," Peebles said.

"The stench was unimaginable," Peebles said, adding that it was difficult to maneuver in the house.

The O'Connor animal center has been assisted by other shelters and organizations with caring for the animals and seeking out adoptions, Peebles said.

The city, in its housing complaint, listed Lynne Ann Molinari as the owner/occupant, as well as other occupants as Elsie Molinari and Sheila Monette.

That case and other cases are scheduled to begin at 2 p.m. in Housing Court.

MSPCA charges are not expected at this time, Peebles said.

So what's to stop them from hoarding animals again if you don't prosecute and demand mental health counseling???

Associate City Solicitor Lisa DeSousa said the city will seek to enforce its condemnation order and will look for a plan to get the property back in habitable conditions. Cotter said the residents will not be able to return to the house until it is fully cleaned and sanitized.

The air quality in the house "would make it dangerous for anyone to be living in those conditions," Cotter said.

The city inspectors responded to the house after receiving a complaint, Cotter said.

WITHOUT MENTAL HEALTH COUNSELING THE RECIDIVISM RATE FOR HOARDING IS 100%
