Two words: Dog kennel
I looked up this Judge to try to see what her damage was and did see where she once presided over a case of
cattle rustlingQuote:
On Tuesday, August 2, 2005, in Kimball County District Court, Judge Kristine R. Cecava sentenced Byron Wilke, 38 of Kimball, NE to five to eight years in the Lincoln State Correctional Facility and ordered him to pay restitution to the victim.
On May 17, 2005, Byron Wilke pled guilty to one count of Theft by Deception, a Class III Felony. Court records indicate that Wilke arranged for Jerry Gregory of Kimball, NE to wire approximately $230,000 to Alliance Cattle Company in Kansas for the purchase of 436 head of cattle. The money actually went to pay Wilke's debt to the company.
On a more serious note, a biography of her says that
Chadron State College wrote:
