Chris Lagergren was arrested in Key Largo, Monroe County, FL on September 10, 2011, by an off-duty Miami Police Sergeant named Javier Ortiz, for alleged trespassing and criminal mischief at the Marine Mammal Conservancy, also in Key Largo. Chris had been a volunteer at the MMC, and was providing the FL State authorities with documented evidence of numerous County Code violations at the facility, just prior to his arrest. He is now charged with an AETA-like Felony under the Florida Animal Enterprise Protection Act (AEPA); 1 count of Animal Enterprise Disruption; 2 counts of trespassing, and 1 count of criminal mischief/vandalism. Chris was released on a staggering $32,000 bond and is now facing a trial and a potential 8 year prison sentence. We are all watching!!
