A Buda area couple at the center of a November animal seizure case have now been arrested on multiple felony charges.
Thomas Caffey, 47, of Buda, was arrested Dec. 3 on two counts of Child Endangerment Criminal Negligence, a state-jail felony. Melissa Caffey, 49, of Buda, was arrested Dec. 4 on two counts of Child Endangerment Criminal Negligence, a state-jail felony, and 10 counts of cruelty to non-livestock animals, a third-degree felony.
According to a Hays County Sheriff’s Office press release, the arrests stem from a Nov. 1 incident where authorities were dispatched to the 200 block of Towhee Drive in the Leisurewoods subdivision regarding inhumane animal care.
