The backstory In 2022, police seized more than 100 animals, including 25 dogs, turtles, birds, alligators and a goat from the same home. McAdoo was convicted in 2023. The judge said he was not allowed to have animals for a year. Local perspective Animal advocates want stricter laws when it comes to repeat offenders. Megan Jordan and Janelle Westbrook are the directors for Second Chance Animals of Greater Milwaukee. The rescue isn't directly involved with McAdoo's case, but advocates for animals neglected or abused. "There are so many of them, and you can't exactly track [them] easily," Westbrook said. "So everyone that adopts dogs – at all the rescues, all the shelters has somewhere, they can go and say, 'oh, this person has a history.' Right now, we don't have that." SIGN UP TODAY: Get daily headlines, breaking news emails from FOX6 News They say state animal abuse laws are vague and don't require follow-ups when it comes to repeat offenders. "It is heartbreaking, but it happens a lot more than what people think, unfortunately," said co-director Megan Jordan. "It is very subjective, and repeat offenders can go get another animal the next day. So I feel like more monitoring in that aspect." McAdoo's bond was set at $5,000. He is due in court for a preliminary hearing on June 13.

On this day: McAdoo to Hall of Fame, Red Claws become Maine Celtics
On this day: McAdoo to Hall of Fame, Red Claws become Maine Celtics On this day in Boston Celtics history, former Celtics forward Bob McAdoo was inducted into the Naismith Basketball Hall of Fame alongside Detroit Pistons point guard Isiah Thomas and several others in 2000. McAdoo was, at best, a reluctant Celtic, traded to the franchise from the New York Knicks. He was concerned about the racial climate of the city, which had a reputation for being particularly hostile to African Americans. Conversely, team president Red Auerbach had not been consulted on the deal by ownership and nearly quit as a result. But all parties stuck it out for six months, and McAdoo was dealt to the Detroit Pistons for draft assets. McAdoo played 20 games for Boston, averaging 20.6 points, 7.1 rebounds, and 2 assists per game with the franchise. Also, it was on this day in 2021 that the Boston Celtics announced they were changing the name of their G League affiliate, the Maine Red Claws. The familiar lobster mascot stayed but turned green, and the club was henceforth known as the (Portland) Maine Celtics.

Cameron McAdoo to undergo knee surgery; return timeline unknown
Cameron McAdoo will undergo knee surgery on Thursday to repair an ACL that was torn in a preseason crash. A timeline for his return has not been announced. 'Hey everyone; I wanted to jump on here and give you guys an update,' McAdoo said in a social media post. 'As you all know, I didn't race the main event in Daytona last weekend. After practice and after the heat race, there were just a few moments on track that really made me realize that I was very low on strength with my leg. Obviously, my safety and all the other riders on the track's safety is the important thing. For me to race at the highest level, it had become just not quite safe yet, so the team came together and made the decision to go get my knee fixed up. Despite the injury, McAdoo finished fifth in his heat race and would have had a mid-pack gate pick. 'As you guys all know, that was a really tough decision for me,' McAdoo continued. 'I always want to be out on the track and trying my hardest. That was tough, but it was just time, so this week I have surgery scheduled for Thursday. Looking forward to going in and getting fixed up. I'll keep you guys all updated with my recovery process, keep you in the loop and just looking forward to getting healthy and getting back out there.' In the most recent Monster Energy Supercross 250 East race, McAdoo crashed while riding sixth on Lap 15 and suffered facial lacerations. 'My knee has just not been strong enough today to safely race, and my safety, along with other riders on the track, is the most important,' McAdoo said in a press release immediately following the race. 'As everyone knows, I will always do everything I can to race, but it was not in the cards for us today.' Incredibly, McAdoo finished third in the 250 East opener in Tampa, but the strain of three rounds and any practice he could endure had a cumulative effect on the health of his knee. 'It is what it is,' McAdoo reflected on his injury to NBC Sports to Daytona prior to the Daytona race. 'The same as it was in Tampa. I have a fully torn ACL, so nothing is going to change a whole lot, but we're managing it well at this point.'

RJ Hampshire, Tom Vialle square off in Supercross 250 East
TAMPA, Florida: While not completely unprecedented, having both Monster Energy Supercross 250 regional champions in the same division is a rare occurrence. But that is just one of the scenarios that will be faced by this year's 250 East riders. RJ Hampshire was scheduled to defend his 250 West title, but a broken wrist suffered during the offseason took too long to heal. A major surgery required the doctors to disassemble and repair a plate and screws, effectively putting him back to square one in his healing process barely nine weeks before the 250 West season began. As gritty a rider as Hampshire is, it was not enough time. "If I had to have run A1, it wouldn't have been good for myself," Hampshire said during Press Day for the opening round of the 250 East division at Raymond James Stadium. "I wasn't in a good spot, mentally, physically [but now] I feel good. On the bike, I can pretty much do everything I want to do — except for the fact that I'm going to have some pain in my wrist. It's not going to go away but I'm okay with that. ... We're all dealing with something. You see the (other) guys up here. My injury is public; theirs isn't." Hampshire and Tom Vialle find themselves in the midst of a stacked 250 East field that was made even more robust by the inclusion of the 250 West champion and the rider who finished second to him last year in that division, Levi Kitchen, who was originally scheduled to ride in the West before an illness during the weekend of the season opener forced his decision to switch coasts. "Last year was a test for myself to put myself in position and be able to win a championship," Hampshire continued. "That mentality; that switch you can have is huge and you don't know it until that position comes. There are a lot of great guys; every week is going to be a grind." Austin Forkner, Cameron McAdoo, Pierce Brown, Max Anstie, Nate Thrasher, Seth Hammaker, and Chance Hymas will mount up this week, although McAdoo announced he will make a race day decision as to whether his ACL is healthy enough to execute the full program. Each of those riders are capable of winning on Saturday but ultimately, the championship may come down to the riders with an already proven ability to win titles. "Mentally, I feel like Tom and I are the only ones who have been able to put it together," Hampshire said. "I think we can both deliver when the time comes." While not discounting the other factory riders, Vialle agrees that the depth of the field is something that must be dealt with and is an important step in his development. "It's going to be interesting and I'm actually pretty excited over the weekend to see how it's going to be — but we race pretty much all year in outdoors and SMX (SuperMotocross League) all together, so it's not a big difference. Once you move to 450s all different guys at the same time. It's nice that a lot of guys can win a race."
