Klamath Falls dogs neglect/abandonment hearing canceled today for plea change next month

KLAMATH FALLS, Ore. — A case of abandoned Rottweiler puppies in Klamath County is dropping a hearing in the matter today to gain a plea next month.

51-year-old David McMillion of Klamath Falls faces a felony charge of animal neglect and a misdemeanor criminal charge of animal abandonment.

McMillion pleaded “not guilty” in January to the charges from puppies left in a U-Haul moving truck during cold weather last Thanksgiving.

His defense lawyer Eve Costello filed a request with Klamath County Circuit Court for a plea change in the case, writing “That this matter is presently scheduled for Hearing on June 10th, 2024. (3.) That the defense requests this hearing be moved to July 15th, 2024 for a change of plea.”

Judge Marci Adkisson granted that request.

The charges accuse McMillion of criminal negligence for failing to “provide minimum care for an animal” on or about Nov. 23, 2023. The original charges list 15 Rottweiler dogs that were, “in defendant’s custody or control.”

An affidavit with Oregon State Patrol Trooper Kyle Torres, who investigated the case, requested a search warrant for the truck and who arrested McMillion, notes, “The following is a true list of things seized by me pursuant to this warrant: 25 Rottweiler dogs.”

McMillion’s other charge accuses him of animal abandonment saying he, “did unlawfully and with criminal negligence leave 15 Rottweiler Dogs, domestic animals, at the location of 250 Dan O’Brien Way, Klamath Falls, OR 97601 in the back Of UHaul truck, without providing for the animal’s continued care.”

He faces a July court date for his plea change in the case.
