A judge has rejected a probation deal proposed by a New Britain man charged with killing three cats and hurting four others. Stanislaw Ternacki applied for the accelerated rehabilitation program, which allows charges against first-time offenders to be dismissed after a probation period. The Herald of New Britain reported that a Superior Court judge refused Ternacki’s request Tuesday. Ternacki now has until July 30 to accept or reject a deal proposed by prosecutors that calls for a four-month jail sentence if he pleads guilty to animal cruelty.
