Tampa, Florida-- James Hopkins, 66, is in jail on animal cruelty charges for putting cats in a freezer.

The Hillsborough County Sheriff's Office was affecting a foreclosure eviction at a home off  Annette Avenue in Tampa when they discovered Hopkins living in the property that wasn't his. 

When they walked in, they were stricken by the stench of cat urine and feces, as more than 30 unhealthy cats were running loose.
