Butler County Ohio prosecutor Michael T. Gmoser is seeking the death penalty for Phil.
This is an injustice to ALL weather predicting groundhogs. Phil is a national treasure and should NOT be executed for a wrong forecast!
This sets an incomprehensible precedent for any person or animal predicting the weather. Failure to predict accurate weather could lead to prosecution?

Its a video from the weather channel explaining the situation better than I have.
Also this is a COLOSSAL waste of local and state resources....
