Brevard County Woman Arrested for Animal Cruelty & Child Neglect
Tyisha Osby was arrested after being accused of animal cruelty and child neglect. Brevard County authorities had been searching for her for over a month. After a detailed investigation, they found her at a motel in Vero Beach. Her arrest ends a troubling case that raised concerns about the safety of both animals and children.
The Charges: Animal Cruelty and Child Neglect
Osby faces serious charges for mistreating both animals and children. Investigators say she kept animals in her backyard without enough food, water, or care. This is a clear violation of Brevard County laws that protect animals from abuse.
But the charges don’t stop there. Osby also faces child neglect charges. She reportedly made her children break up a dangerous dog fight in her yard. This put the children at risk of injury and exposed them to emotional harm. It’s a sad example of how vulnerable individuals, both animals and children, were put in harm’s way.
