Cruel and unusual? I don't think so. It may be a bit unusual, but it'd only be cruel if she had to do spend 30 days in her trailer with a couple of emaciated horses.
When the animals were found in late January, they were boney and emaciated, diagnosed with intestinal infections and a skin condition known as "rain rot."

One of the horses had severe abscesses on his hoofs that made it difficult to stand.

"He was just swaying back and forth in pain because he didn't want to put any weight on either foot," said Assistant District Attorney Tacie Ball, who prosecuted the three-day trial.
Other than tying her up unfed for four months, I'm having a hard time trying to figure out what would be cruel and unusual for her. At least she's getting bread and water.
