A western Wisconsin man will not go to jail for lighting a raccoon on fire.
A judge in Clark County yesterday sentenced Hayden Weiler from Owen to probation and community service. The DNR arrested Weiler after a video made the rounds on social media that showed Weiler pour gas on a raccoon, then set it on fire. In addition to the community service, Weiler has to write an essay on animal cruelty. If he completes all that, the case will be dismissed in three years.
