Las Vegas Pet Shop Owner Gets 14 Years For Torching Store With 27 Puppies Inside

Las Vegas pet shop owner Gloria Eun Hye Lee burnt her store with 27 dogs inside and was sentenced to up to 14 years in prison. During trial Lee revealed that she is pregnant, but the news did not deter the lengthy sentence in the case. Prosecutor Shanon Clowers said the pregnancy announcement was simply an attempt at garnering a “get out of jail free card.”

Gloria Eun Hye Lee, 36, received nearly the maximum sentence allowable by law in the Las Vegas pet store torching. Kirk Bills, Lee’s co-conspirator in the Prince and Princess pet store arson case reportedly set the fire as part of an insurance fraud scam. Bills will be sentenced early next week.
