Frazier was sentenced on January 24, 2025, after being convicted of participating in “physical” actions with animals.
According to material accessible on the Mississippi Department of Corrections website, Frazier was ordered by the court to serve five years of probation after her release from prison. In addition, she was ordered to pay $2,615.51 in fines and restitution.
She is currently housed at the Central Mississippi Correctional Facility in Rankin County.
History of Allegations
This is not Frazier’s first encounter with law enforcement over such charges.
In 2024, Hattiesburg authorities arrested Frazier on two distinct charges: attempted unnatural intercourse and completed unnatural intercourse with animals.
These allegations were filed around a year after her initial arrest in Jones County in April 2023, where she was accused of unnatural intercourse with animals.
Evidence and Animal Welfare
Law authorities found devastating video footage of Frazier’s activities.
According to the animal rights organization In Defense of Animals, the tape shows Frazier engaged in personal actions with dogs. The organization reported that three different canines were seen in numerous recordings.
Following their rescue, all of the animals received veterinarian treatment and care.
Advocacy Response
Animal rights activists continue to press for increased responsibility.
Doll Stanley of In Defense of Animals stated that while this sentencing reflects progress, advocacy efforts continue, notably in the Jones County case where Frazier’s violent behavior was first exposed.
