Police in Oregon arrested Miriam Elaine Sakewitz for hoarding rabbits in her hotel room. Sakewitz kept 13 bunnies hidden her hotel room, a violation of a court order that forced her to keep away from rabbits at all times.

Sakewitz was caught with 13 live animals and one dead rabbit in her hotel room. Police broke into her Homestead Studio Suites Hotel, arrested Sakewitz, and seized the bunnies.

In 2006, Sakewtiz was convicted of animal neglect charges and was ordered to stay 100 yards away from rabbits after police found 200 rabbits in her home, 88 of which were dead and being stored in her freezer.

What is wrong with this woman, seriously!? Why does she have this sick obsession with bunnies? She should never be allowed to own any animal as she clearly can't be trusted with any other life form, and better yet, she should just be placed in jail with 200 hundred other women so that she can feel what it will be like to be caged up with that many other beings and see how much she likes it.
