Horses Found Dead - Arabian breeding farm

A high enough class misdemeanor carries prison sentences here. Not paying child support, for instance, is not a felony count in my state, but it sure can put a man in the state pen if he gets far enough behind. So depending on the class of misdemeanor, it could. I still think she should get a felony for the leased horses she refused to return, or pay for. They used to hang horse thieves. But I bet they consider that a civil matter.

Sometimes I would love a little old time cowboy justice!

There is a new article concerning Tory Morgan from the Sharon, PA, Herald.

I think they must have been sending out "investigators" from the city in have no knowledge of horses, and couldn't tell a healthy horse from a skinny one. Or their guidelines are very lenient. Anyone could look at her website and see smore than three underweight horses. Apparently she doesn't know a healthy horse from an emaciated horse herself. And I understand

Ok, that sent before I was ready, and I don't remember the rest of my comment.

Glad that they can raise the charges to felonies in VA, and I hope they do in this case.

She may or may not get much time, but if the judge did not consider what she did to be a serious crime against society, she would be out on bale right now. I think that she will do some serious time.

I think he believes she is a flight risk. And honestly, I think she probably is.

The reason the Judge is holding is her because he said that she had no ties to the community (ie - she would run) and she admitted herself that she only knew one person so that gives him grounds right there.
As for jail time, I won't hold my breath for a lot. Even in worse cases, such as 101 Arabians, the guy didn't get just jail time. $72,000 fine, but what's that when you can afford to import horse from Poland?
They always seem to just get a slap on the wrist.

This says it all....
