I would pray that this situation would be handled in a different way, gotta be a better way to handle this! Let us be in constant prayer for our Veterans, way too many are suffering. An Ohio Army veteran who says his pet ducks help relieve his post-traumatic stress disorder and depression has been convicted of a misdemeanor for keeping them.
Darin Welker was cited for violating a ban on keeping farm animals in West Lafayette, a village 80 miles east of Columbus. He was found guilty Wednesday and was fined $50 plus court costs.
A prosecutor says the ordinance is clear and the judge’s hands were tied.
According to reports Welker recently gave away eight of the ducks but still has six.
Welker argued for a change in the law. He said in court the ducks are fenced in his yard but sometimes have been in his house or sitting on a recliner.
Let is be in prayer for Darin Welker.
