The trial for a woman accused of pretending to be a veterinarian at an Akron animal hospital begins today in Summit County Common Peas Court.

36-year-old Brandi Tomko of Wadsworth is facing a list of charges including animal cruelty and identity fraud.

She appeared before Judge Paul Gallagher in court Tuesday.

Tomko is accused of treating and operating on animals at the now-closed C&D Animal Hospital on Brittain Road in Akron.

The story broke last April when Kenny Reymann shared with the media the details of the death of his dog "Charlie."
