The criminal trial for Washington County’s Controller has been delayed until September. April Sloane is accused of animal neglect by causing the starvation death of her dog last year. Sloane’s attorney had requested the continuance last month. Washington County Judge John DiSalle set the new trial date for September 10th. Jury selection had been expected to begin on Monday. Sloane is facing two felony counts of aggravated animal cruelty and one misdemeanor charge of animal neglect for the death of her dog, Thor. North Strabane Township Police found Thor’s body in a trash bag in her garage. Sloane, who continues to work as the county controller, is free on one-hundred-fifty-thousand-dollars bond.
