Two York County women, including a sheriff deputy, charged with ill-treatment of animals: SLED
YORK COUNTY, S.C. (QUEEN CITY NEWS) — Two York County women have been arrested and charged with ill-treatment of animals. On May 16, the South Carolina Law Enforcement Division (SLED) charged Amari Anne Mitchell, 27, and Kaitlyn Johnson, 26, on two counts of ill-treatment of animals as well as burying a dead animal improperly and criminal conspiracy. Mitchell, who is a York County deputy, was arrested after animal control was called to her residence in regard to an animal complaint. According to arrest warrants, the Animal Control Officer witnessed a very malnourished Goldendoodle named Axel on the property. When the ACO talked to Mitchell on the phone, she told him that the dog had a vet appointment on May 12. The vet examined Axel and euthanized him. Part of the vet's report said, 'Axel's decline and starvation occurred over a long period of time (months) and he suffered a great deal. My clinical suspicion is high for long-term neglect. Unfortunately, given Axel's level of emaciation, dehydration, and shock, his prognosis was grave and he was humanely euthanized to end his suffering.' Warrants say that Johnson and Mitchell violated the South Carolina Code of Laws by failing to bury a deceased animal at least three feet underground. The animal carcass was found near the rear fence gate of her backyard during the execution of a search warrant on their home. Documents also show that the pair also had a small Maltese locked in a small hallway closet marked 'Dog Room' with no lighting, water or minimal air circulation. Officials say the temperature in the closet was warmer than 75 degrees. The backside of the door had significant scratch marks, indicating the dog's efforts to escape. Sandpaper was placed on the interior of the door, which Johnson states was intended to prevent the dog from scratching the door. Following Mitchell's arrest, she was placed on administrative leave without pay, pending an internal review of the incident. She had served as a deputy for two years. Mitchell and Johnson were booked into the York County Detention Center. Queen City News is tracking CRIME in your area 🚨 >> Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

Get to know News 13 Anchor Shelby Pay
PANAMA CITY, Fla. (WMBB) — There's a new face behind the anchor desk at News 13, and she's bringing Northeast experience, infectious enthusiasm, and a genuine love for storytelling to the Panhandle. Shelby joined WMBB in February 2025, coming from our sister station WUTR in Utica, New York, where she began her career as a reporter and eventually worked her way up to anchor. Originally from Connecticut, Shelby says the opportunity to grow as a journalist and enjoy the Florida sunshine made the move to Panama City an easy decision. 'I saw this job opportunity and I couldn't pass it up,' she said. 'I couldn't be happier to be here.' Shelby's path into journalism began with a love for the television industry, but it was through her academic journey that she discovered the impact journalism can have. 'I love being able to tell people's stories and reveal the hard truths,' she explained. 'It's very important, especially in today's climate.' That passion for storytelling is what fuels Shelby on a daily basis. She enjoys meeting people, learning something new every day, and bringing local stories to life for viewers. Her career has already included some fun and unusual experiences, from working as an in-game host for the Utica Comets hockey team to starting her on-air journey as a 'lottery girl' in Rhode Island during college, where she drew nightly numbers live on television. In just a few weeks, Shelby has already started exploring Panama City and its beautiful beaches, often accompanied by her 8-year-old Goldendoodle, Lucy, who's adjusting well to the Florida heat, though Shelby says more haircuts are definitely in Lucy's future. What's surprised her most about the move? 'How friendly everyone is,' Shelby said. 'Being from the Northeast, things move at a fast pace. Here, it's nice to slow down, have a conversation, even if it's just about the weather.' Shelby hopes locals know she's approachable and always eager to connect. 'If you ever see me out, feel free to come up and say hi. Or if you have a story idea, I'm always willing to lend an open ear.' When it came to joining WMBB, Shelby was impressed by the team's commitment to in-depth reporting and storm coverage, an essential part of serving the Gulf Coast community. 'I was inspired when I toured the newsroom and saw how hard everyone works. It's a team that tells important stories and pulls their weight, and I knew I wanted to be a part of that.'

Rachel Zegler keeps a low profile as 'woke' Snow White disaster worsens
Rachel Zegler went make-up free to walk her dog Lenny around her New York City neighborhood on Monday after reaching out to fans for help with his mysterious illness. The Snow White starlet - turning 24 on May 3 - was dressed down in a baggy double-denim ensemble over a brown hoodie and green sneakers. Rachel's cell phone case reading 'People can do hard things' was a quote from Lady Gaga 's motivational commencement speech for the class of 2020 at North Carolina State University. On Sunday, Zegler was 'pulling' her hair out trying to figure out how to help her two-year-old miniature Goldendoodle, who was spraying 'crazy diarrhea' all over her apartment and had 'a loss of appetite.' After three emergency trips to the veterinarian, little Lenny - who's named after West Side Story composer Leonard Bernstein - was officially diagnosed with colitis and the 'intravenous medications have certainly helped settle his system.' 'Happy to report that Lenny is doing great!' the outspoken Zoomer - who boasts 3.2M social media followers - updated her fans on Monday. Rachel Zegler went make-up free to walk her dog Lenny around her New York City neighborhood on Monday after reaching out to fans for help with his mysterious illness 'He's back to wanting to eat, which was my most major concern. This dog is my entire life and the mere thought of him feeling anything less than wonderful just destroys me - it's been comforting to read how not alone I am in that feeling [through] all of your helpful DMs. 'Whether you suggested pumpkin, a second opinion, [reiki], or simply offered a prayer for the little man, thank you from the bottom of my heart.' Rachel and Lenny are scheduled to fly to London this Tuesday so she can begin rehearsals for the West End production of Evita. Zegler 'couldn't be more excited' to play Argentine politician Eva Perón in Jamie Lloyd's revival of the Andrew Lloyd Webber and Tim Rice's 1978 musical, which runs 12 weeks starting June 14 at the London Palladium. However, one glance at the ticketing website reveals just how few seats have sold for the ambitious production opening in just two months. June, July, August, and September are all awash in 'green good' availability despite tickets starting at just £29.50 inside the 2,286-seat venue. The half-Colombian beauty has faced extreme backlash as the titular princess in Disney's Snow White, which has only earned $184.9M at the global box office since opening March 21 after reportedly costing at least $350M to make and market. Marc Webb's 'PC' live-action remake of the Brothers Grimm fairy tale has a dismal 40% critic approval rating (out of 253 reviews) but managed a decent 72% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes while it plummeted to 1.6 out of 10 (from 343K ratings) on IMDb. Rachel spent the press tour criticizing Walt Disney's beloved 1937 original animated film, refusing to take down a pro-Palestinian tweet, and cursing President Donald Trump and his supporters to 'never know peace.'
