Cory McGilloway, 32, was given a sentence for at least three months of mental health treatment and attorneys emphasized his need to enroll in a drug program as well.
SAN FRANCISCO — A Los Angeles man who stole a lemur from the San Francisco Zoo, only to release it days later at a Daly City playground, has pleaded guilty to a misdemeanor and been given a sentence that carries no additional jail time, court records show.
But in a plea deal, both federal prosecutors and defense attorneys agreed McGilloway has been behind bars long enough. On Tuesday, he was formally sentenced to “at least three months” of mental healthcare treatment and one year of supervised release. Attorneys on both sides also agreed McGilloway needs drug addiction treatment, but he wasn’t ordered to undergo it.
Prosecutors allege that McGilloway may have been planning to sell Maki, since he Googled terms like “how much it is to buy a lemur,” and “how much is a lemur.” But there is evidence that he simply wanted one as a pet; he also searched for “what is required to own a lemur,” possible lemur names, and information about lemur diets and veterinary care.
