Dale Bozzio, former Playboy bunny and rock icon, has been charged with animal cruelty after neighbors found numerous sick and dead cats in her home.

A dozen cats were removed from the home and put down. Bozzio’s lawyer stated that Bozzio was out of town at the time and that the person hired to take care of her pets never arrived.  Bozzio has pleaded not guilty to three misdemeanor counts of animal cruelty and will be charged with nine more.

Bozzio, born Dale Frances Consalvi, was the lead singer for the 1980s pop/new wave band Missing Persons.
