The former executive director of a Humane Society in Union County, Ohio, is facing a 42-count indictment, including charges for animal abuse.

Steffen Baldwin was accused of euthanizing pets without the consent of their owners. Baldwin allegedly raked in massive payments from pet owners after claiming he could train unruly or aggressive pets or find them a new home. He would then euthanize the pets and pocket the cash, according to police.
