Among the instances of neglect detailed in court documents, he dropped feed bales in a pasture but didn't removing the plastic covering, so calves ate the plastic and died. Things went downhill from there.
/Gray News) - A Missouri man has been sentenced in federal court on Monday for a $215,000 cattle fraud scheme, which he tried to cover up by murdering two brothers from Wisconsin.
. He admitted to defrauding a Wisconsin company, Diemel’s Livestock LLC, of $215,000 via a cattle contract. Nicholas and Justin Diemel were principals in the company. Nelson admitted to not properly caring for the cattle due to incompetence, neglect or maltreatment. Hundreds of calves entrusted to him died. He fed the cattle inadequately and poorly - for example, dropping feed bales in a pasture but not removing the plastic covering, so calves ate the plastic and died).
Nelson then told the Diemels that they could come to Missouri to get their money, and Nicholas Diemel bought two round-trip tickets on July 17, 2019. On July 20, the Diemel brothers arrived in Kansas City, and the next day drove to Nelson’s mother’s farm in Braymer. His mother and relatives were away in Branson for the weekend, so he was alone at the farm.
