Justice for the Chambersburg Ferret: Court Date Set for July 29

The fight for justice continues. Dylan Sellers and Amanda McCoy, charged with four felonies and eight misdemeanors in the brutal killing of a child’s pet ferret, will appear in court on July 29, 2025, from 1:30–3:30 PM ET in Chambersburg, PA. This pivotal hearing will determine whether the case proceeds to trial. With private counsel now involved, the stakes are high — but so is our resolve.

Pennsylvania Humane Officer Russ Harper and the state veterinarian have confirmed the severity of the case, and the community’s voice is being heard. This is not just about one animal—it’s about setting a precedent that all lives matter, regardless of species.
