Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

He gets what he deserves. He's had way too many free passes. If he has a mental problem, get out of the business. Commit a crime, due the time.

As far as I know from what has been written here, Ben is accused, not convicted; whether he had the requisite intent has not been shown.

There has been much time and thought put into this thread by some about the nature of the incident, helping those in need, giving them a hand up, and especially not kicking them while they are down, while at the same time keeping critters safe. However, I think that some people are not even reading the many comments prior to theirs.

Paul, the first court ordered psych eval deemed him mentally unfit for trial, which means that the psychiatrist who examined him found him so delusional that he can't defend himself. I agree that while he is psychotic, he should not only not be allowed around animals, but he should be kept away from people whom he can hurt as well, and he could even be at risk of self harm. Guess what. He is in a mental health facility, so all of these things are true. However, if someone is not even fit for trial, can we call what he did a crime?
Meanwhile, BSR is still in business. I think its future is very uncertain, however, just because his name is over the door.

The court ordered a second eval - the first was conducted by the defense.

Did the judge decide to have him moved to the mental facility because of that first eval or before it? I don't know how these things work.

Does it really matter at this point?
His progressive illness, decline, personal and professional problems have been played out for the past 5 years here! 
Respect, people.

It's not an allegation, it's a known fact that Ben Siegel himself and those close to him have admitted to many times.
