Andrew Blake, driver of a pig-loaded truck that ran over and killed an animal rights protestor in Burlington, has pleaded guilty.
He could face a fine of up to $50,000 and three years in prison.
Regan Russell, a 65-year-old animal rights activist, was run over June 19, 2020, during a demonstration outside of the Sofina Fearmans Pork facility as a semi-trailer pulled into the plant.
Russell was a regular protester at the plant, where trucks are often stopped by protesters and pigs given water.
