Birdwatcher Who Killed Cat Flees Texas After Someone Shot At Him


GALVESTON, Texas — A prominent birdwatcher who went on trial for fatally shooting a cat said he left the state after someone shot at him.
Jim Stevenson, founder of the Galveston Ornithological Society, said he has received death threats since his trial on animal cruelty charges. A judge declared a mistrial in the case earlier this month when the jury failed to reach a verdict.
