Jason Meduna in Court
The owner of the mustang outpost in Morrill County waived his right to a preliminary hearing and will now face trial in Morrill County District Court. Forty-two year old Jason Meduna is charged with 149 felony counts of animal abuse regarding the malnourishment and death of horses and burros found on the 3-Strikes Ranch south of Alliance.
Meduna appeared in court with his wife Anissa and his lawyer John S. Berry Jr. of the Berry Law Firm, based in Lincoln, Neb. Berry was reluctant to comment if the 149 counts are excessive.
Judge G. Glenn Cammer set Meduna's arraignment in district court for July 14th at 1:30 pm.
If convicted Meduna could receive up to 5 years in prison, up to a $10,000 fine or both for each felony.
Morrill County Attorney Jean Rhodes says the investigation is continuing.
