 </figure>WICHITA – A Kansas woman was sentenced Wednesday for breaking into a Wichita home and killing her ex-boyfriend's dog&nbsp; with a baseball bat, reportedly in a jealous rage. A Sedgwick County District Judge sentenced 32-year-old Hilda Noordhoek of Wichita, to 24 months of probation, according to the Sedgwick County District Attorney.On April 22, 2018, a man who lives in southeast Wichita told police someone used a brick to smash a window and enter his house. The thief took a computer along with headphones and the suspect killed his bulldog.&nbsp;A witness told police that Noordhoek killed the pet because she was mad that the man — with whom she was romantically involved — was seeing another woman.Wichita Police used a license plate reader program and found Noordhoek’s car matched security footage outside the victim’s house. The victim and Noordhoek knew each other.Last month, Noordhoek pled no contest to burglary, theft, and cruelty to animals. As part of the sentence, the judge ordered Noordhoek to pay $3236.99 in restitution to the victim. The Judge also ordered her to serve a 30-day jail sanction immediately before she begins her probation, which the Judge is required to do under Kansas law as a condition of probation on the cruelty to animals. Noordhoek was ordered to obtain a substance abuse and mental health evaluation and follow the recommendations of the psychological evaluation.The judge also ordered Noordhoek to have no contact with any pets except those she already owns and no unsupervised contact with other people’s pets.Noordhoek's lack of criminal history placed her most serious charge, burglary, in the "presumptive probation" category under Kansas law. The court ruled that if she violated her probation she would serve 13 months in prison for the burglary with an additional 12 months in jail for the cruelty to animals.
