21 years in prison for killing Lady Gaga's dog

 

A man who shot and injured Lady Gaga's dog Walker has been sentenced to 21 years in prison. His name is James Howard Jackson. It is said that the criminal did not plead in his defence. He was sentenced for the attempted murder of dog trainer Ryan Fisher in connection with a dog theft. 

In 2021, Lady Gaga's dog trainer Ryan Fisher was walking Gaga's 4 French bulldogs. Jackson and his accomplices then attacked to steal the dog and at one point shot Ryan in the chest. A dog was killed in the shooting and Ryan was wounded. One dog escaped from the spot and they took the other two dogs.  

Mr. Fisher was present in court during the hearing of the case. He says he had to have part of his lung removed after the attack. He is back from the dead. This attack changed his life. Convicted James Howard Jackson also pleaded guilty in court to shooting Ryan Fisher in the chest.

 

The Los Angeles County District Attorney's Office called the attack a cold-blooded act of violence. Jackson was charged with several other charges that were dismissed as part of a plea deal. However, he was sentenced on the charge of murder Chester.

On the day of the incident, Jackson and four other accomplices shot and took two dogs named Cozy and Gustav. A dog named Walker was shot dead. The dog named Bulldog 'Miss Asia' escaped. Police later found the dog. Two stolen dogs were returned unharmed two days after Gaga offered a $500,000 reward.

 In this incident, the police said that Lady Gaga was not targeted as a dog. Dogs are attacked and taken because of their breed.

 

Another Jackson associate, Harold White, who is serving a 21-year sentence, will be sentenced next year, prosecutors said. Harold White's sons Jaylin Keeshon White and Lafayette Shawn Whaley were both convicted last year of second-degree robbery and sentenced to four and six years in prison, respectively.
