DiLorenzo, aka Cori Dee, is facing a class 4 felony charge of aggravated animal cruelty. An Iroquois County grand jury has turned a one-count indictment against DiLorenzo, alleging that she “intentionally caused the death of multiple companion animals, including dogs, cats, pigs, rabbits, birds, goats, raccoons and turtles.”

People familiar with the situation have described it as something "out of a horror story." Please join us in asking James Devine, Iroquois County State's Attorney, to put DiLorenzo behind bars for the maximum allowable time for her charge. Additionally, we ask that she be forbidden from owning or caring for any animal for the remainder of her life.
