Animal-cruelty trial of woman is delayed

THE SUN MARYLAND FRIDAY 06-29/2007 

Animal-cruelty trial of woman is delayed 
The scheduled start of the trial Donna Lee Bell, who faces animal-cruelty charges after 118 animals were found in her two Harford County houses last year, was postponed yesterday. 

A new trial date for the 60-year-old former Whiteford resident has not been set. Judge John Dunnigan said yesterdaythat a report required for the case to proceed was not available. Bell’s lawyer, Leonard Shapiro, would not specify the contents of the report, but he said it related to the defendant’s mental health. 
Bell has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity to 118 charges of animal cruelty.
