Missing Persons lead singer Dale Bozzio in jail

Dale_bozzio Dale Bozzio, lead singer of Missing Persons, turned herself in to authorities in New Hampshire and was jailed Thursday on animal cruelty charges, TMZ reports. (Click the link to see her jail mugshot.)

This item feels awful to write. I spent a few hours hanging out with Dale backstage before the 2008 Regeneration Tour and I love her music. It's much easier to report the shenanigans of Boy George and George Michael, two guys I'll probably never meet in person.

TMZ says Bozzio was sentenced to 90 days in jail and 250 hours of community service after authorities found sick and dead cats inside of her home.
