A Holtwood woman facing over a dozen animal cruelty charges tied to cockfighting is breaking her silence, claiming she's innocent.

"I didn’t want to hide anything, I wanted strong lines of communication and the plumber told him the reason I hadn’t watered is because our well had run dry and that he was replacing the pump to bring up more water and he told him it would be about an hour," said Cole. "Just so that people and my community knows that I am not a monster. The paraphernalia they found at my house was things I purchased at Tractors Supply. We joke around we call it Gatorade for chickens. It's just nutrients," Cole said.

"This is what they called the telephone pole, this is a fence post. My husband was building a fence and roosters fly and they like to perch. I would never tie anything to a telephone pole," said Cole.Police then found roosters and hens in pens that they said are consistent with breeding practices associated with animal fighting.
