I guess I just don't understand some people.
When they arrested her, there were 38 dogs at her home.
I never can understand cases like this. What makes people do this? What's wrong with people?

A judge sentenced her to 365 days in jail, reduced to 174 days with credit for time already served, according to the station.
Culwell was arrested in April after she was captured on video throwing the puppies into a garbage bin near an auto parts store in 90-degree weather on April 18 before driving away, officials have said.
The puppies were in a plastic bag, authorities have said. A passerby discovered the animals, which were said to be around three days old. One of the dogs died three days later.
