Missing Persons Singer Finds Herself in Jail

Posted Nov 13th 2009 12:25AM by TMZ Staff

Dale Bozzio, the lead singer from the '80s band Missing Persons, has turned herself in to a New Hampshire jail yesterday to serve her time for an animal cruelty conviction.

Missing Persons

Last year, Bozzio was charged with the crime after authorities found loads of sick and dead cats inside of her home. After the gruesome discovery, 12 cats were euthanized and Bozzio was forced to pay the $2700 bill.

Bozzio -- who was lead vocals on that song "Walking in L.A." -- was also sentenced to 90 days behind bars and 250 hours of community service.

1. Oh my god, minus the hair she looks like Aileen Wuormos (sp?) the serial killer that Charlize Theron played in "Monster"...yikes.

2. I remember that video in the 80's, when MTV actually played music. She was wearing some kinda solar panel skirt and had huge ta-tas

3. yep, number one - she does. I remember her when I first moved to Cali back in '85 that group was really popular with the "valley girl culture crowd" then - Dale wore really funky, suggestive cheap looking outfits that looked great on her 'cause she was really skinny and she sang with a really quirky sounding voice.

4. I think she also did a centerfold spread for Hustler magazine.
Her ex-husband Terry Bozzio is one Hell of drummer

6. she used to be the bomb...but either drugs or bad living has definately taken a toll on her. The fact that she abuses animals makes her a complete loser in my books. I am glad she is being punished for animal cruelty...at least this time justice is being served.

8. Okay really, just look at this woman... she has a mntal illness. As much as I would like to make a rude comment about her; I cant, because she is the poster child for a mental illness. I think someone should get her some help, and forget the fines.

9. I already hate this monster. Killing cats and others animals is wrong. She deserves to be punished hard for this. I hate this women.

11. People that abuse and neglect animals are the lowest form of life and need to be punished to the fullest extent! Those poor cats did nothing to BOZO the clown to deserve to be treated in such a horrific way. She can join alongside Vic the Ick for Americas most heinous animal abusers!!! This woman is SCUM!

12. Just Some Vaccine Ingredients: Aluminum, Mercury, Formaldehyde, MSG, Chicken Embryos, Monkey Kidney, Aborted Fetuses... What doesn't k*ll you can only make you stronger right?

13. It doesn't sound like she was intentionally harming cats. More like she is a cat hoarder and thought she was helping them but was too overwhelmed. She definitely needed to be stopped, but I suspect that more good would be done by getting her into therapy instead of jail. I say this because I suspect that she will go back to collecting cats unless she gets proper treatment. A regular jail sentence will probably just slow her down for a few months.

14. WOW, Time has a way of revealing alot about ourselves. She was a Rock n Roll princess, and now....Crazy cat lady. I feel great empathy for her. I hope and pray she gets good help. I can only pray that none of us have to deal with the demons she has to.
