Horses Found Dead - Arabian breeding farm

I found a link that said that they only get 6 months for a misdemeanor. Please mention to your prosecutor friend that 6 months for each of these accounts could be served consecutively. That would make 18 years.

Celeste, first class misdemeanors get more time than regular ones. First class are considered criminal charges, and thus carry heavier sentences.

I certainly hope the prosecutor and sentencing judge take these charges seriously, and she has some significant jail time. There is no excuse for what happened to these horses.

I'd put a bullet in mine before they got to the point they were starving to death. There are always alternatives, even if they aren't popular ones.

As far as those Arabians, they're considered maximally expressed sabinos. As already stated, Arabs don't carry the tobiano gene.

They would not let me be on her jury..........

Nor I. Already made a small donation what I could afford to the local AC that is footing the bills for these poor critters.

I hate hearing about things like this happening to any breed, let alone Arabians (my favorite). I can't imagine any of the trainers or breeders I know allowing something like this to happen because they care about the horses and their own business/reputation.

In understand making license plates can be quite relaxing.

How many more horses are being kept like this all over the place?
Its not just happening in the US either.
There arent enough homes for all the unwanted horses - maybe a charity to help pay for euthanasia where there's real hardship might help

We have the Michigan Horse Welfare Coalition that runs solely on donations. They have a hay bank (donated hay going to those in need), will help place and as a last resort will assist with euthing. They are overwhelmed with need :/

These were not horses with no inherent value. They were all horses that could have been sold. She turned down reasonable offers on some of these horses. They probably had already gone down hill enough that she knew she couldn't sell them without getting in trouble.

Obviously this woman isn't playing with a full deck.
