Overview

• Abigail Tuttle O’Keeffe was returned from Belmopan, Belize, and handed over to Newtown Township police Friday night after her Belize firearms case was settled on Sept. 18.
• O’Keeffe faces nearly 150 counts, including two felony aggravated-cruelty charges, 21 misdemeanor neglect counts, and more than 100 summary offenses, according to court records.
• The case stems from an August 2024 seizure of more than 100 animals from Narrow Way Farm in Newtown after reports of sick and dying livestock.
• Veterinary findings cited by the Bucks County SPCA include heavy parasite loads, emaciation linked to poor diet, contagious foot scald, respiratory symptoms, and filthy conditions at a farm that hosted public “sip and snuggle” events.
• U.S. Marshals, the State Department, INTERPOL Washington, Belize authorities, and local agencies coordinated the transfer; O’Keeffe is held at the Bucks County Correctional Facility on $500,000 bail with a pretrial hearing set for early October.
