CLEARWATER, Fla. (Reuters) - A Florida teen-ager was sentenced to five years in prison on Friday after he pleaded guilty to killing one llama and attacking another last year.
Robert Pettyjohn, 19, was already serving a three-year sentence for killing a bull with a bow and arrow in a separate attack.
His five-year sentence for the llama attacks will not begin until the first sentence ends, giving him a total of eight years in prison.
Pettyjohn admitted he attacked the two llamas with a golf club at a ranch in a rural area near Clearwater in February 2001. The llama that survived lost an eye.
By pleading guilty to animal cruelty charges in a deal with prosecutors, Pettyjohn avoided a trial that would have started on Monday. He could have been sentenced to 15 years in prison if he had been convicted in the trial.
