		<description><![CDATA[A CECIL TIMES SPECIAL REPORT The state Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners has fined A Buddy for Life, which handles animal control for Cecil County under a more than $2.25 million contract, for operating its rented animal shelter in Elkton without a required state license for a year. The state panel also imposed fines and license sanctions involving drug laws against Mindy Carletti, a Perryville veterinarian who provides services and has financial ties to the Buddy group. Meanwhile, a dog, “Brittany”&#8211; that mauled a woman providing the Buddies-owned dog with a temporary foster home and that killed her pet Chihuahua with such violence that its eyeball flew out of its socket&#8211; was recently offered for adoption again by the group in online postings without mentioning the pet’s death or the violent attack on the woman. And in its latest financial reports to the county, the Buddies have found yet another fiscal gimmick to try to justify the $60,000 a month the county gives the group: claiming IRS car usage reimbursement rates for use of a personal vehicle for business purposes. But the county owns the two trucks it bought for the Buddies, who only pay $1 a year each to [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Election day poll workers in Cecil County usually stock a supply of sunscreen, water bottles and signs to wave on behalf of their preferred candidates outside polling places. But an incident Tuesday morning indicates that hockey faceguards might also be in order: a candidate for the Cecil County Republican Central Committee says he was bitten on the nose by a key supporter of Cecil County Council member Diana Broomell (R-4) after a verbal dispute. Eyewitnesses to the incident, which occurred shortly before 9 a.m. at the Elk Neck Elementary School polling place, confirmed that Harold McCanick, a candidate for the county’s Republican Central Committee, was apparently physically attacked outside the polling place after a verbal dispute with Walter Rozanski, a longtime close political ally of County Councilor Broomell and who was wearing a pro-Broomell campaign tee-shirt at the time. McCanick, an outspoken local political figure who has often criticized Broomell, told Cecil Times that he verbally challenged Rozanski about his unauthorized use of a photo of McCanick’s wife on a Facebook posting with a political commentary made by Rozanski. The discussion grew heated and then Rozanski suddenly lunged at him, McCanick said, and bit his nose. An eyewitness, Chris Ann [&#8230;]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[A Cecil Times Special Report Cecil County’s animal control contractor, A Buddy for Life, Inc., has admitted it omitted details of a fatal attack by one of its ‘foster’ dogs in a required report to county officials, while a state inquiry into the group continues and new financial data indicates taxpayers are paying caviar costs for Wal-Mart food and care. A state investigation is continuing into the operation of the Buddy shelter for nearly a full year without a required state license. A spokeswoman for the state Department of Agriculture, which includes the Board of Veterinary Medical Examiners under its umbrella, told Cecil Times that the vet board met in late January and “this matter is being investigated” and “until they have a final document” no further comment can be made at this time. The Buddy group did not obtain its required state license until 12/26/13 but began taxpayer-financed operations on 1/1/13. [SEE previous Cecil Times report on the Buddy group’s lack of licensing here: https://ceciltimes.com/2013/11/state-vet-board-to-investigate-buddy-animal-shelter-on-license-inspection-issues-family-says-buddy-foster-dog-killed-their-pet-attacked-woman/ ] As the Buddy group enters the second year of its three-year, more than $2.25 million contract with Cecil County government, the Animal Care and Control Oversight Commission (ACCOC) &#8212; which under the county’s [&#8230;]]]></description>
