Shantee Denise Rucks and Rafael Boston-Poppa, have each been charged with two counts of Failure to Provide Proper Sustenance after Humane investigators discovered two severely emaciated puppies and one deceased puppy at the residence. Following their seizure, the surviving puppies were transported for emergency veterinary care, where a second puppy later succumbed to its condition. Additional charges remain pending the results of a necropsy.
