Queen Elizabeth’s daughter Princess Anne became the first senior member of the British royal family convicted of a criminal offense in 350 years, pleading guilty to letting her dog bite two children.

Anne was fined 500 pounds, about $790. Her 3-year-old English bull terrier Dotty, who could have faced the death penalty, was spared, provoking criticism from the parents of the victims. The dog must be on a leash in public the rest of its life.
