Alexander Atkind ’06, who was charged on May 8 on one count of aggravated cruelty to animals, a Class E felony, pled guilty to a felony animal abuse charge in Tompkins County Court yesterday.
He admitted to beating and abusing a 30-pound female Labrador-pit bull mix named Princess on or around March 8 by spraying her with homemade cleaning solution containing bleach, leaving her with little or no eyesight for life. Princess belonged to Atkind’s roommate.
