March 14th 2007

These are the true conditions of the horses found on 3/14/07.  They reported to the news 7 DAYS post seizure the horses were abandoned and left with no food or water for 6 months.  Officer Wheaton and Officer Dunlap TESTIFIED UNDER OATH there was no food or water found on the property!  After clearly lying to a Judge they got the Search and Seizure order for 72 hours.  There were issues on the farm, admitted to by Mercier.  However on any farm with that many animals there will be.  It was NOT perfect, however the issues were being addressed prior to AC coming in.

Hay pile on 3/14/07 Hay pile on 3/20/07.  How did it lower from 3/14? Possibly fed to the horses? Also note the Safeguard De-wormer tube used to de-worm young horses. Round bale of hay on 3/14/07.  Wheaton reported that the bales were ENTIRELY leaves.  Hmm..  It is common for a round bale to have leaves in it, as they are baled from a field and sometimes fields have trees next to them!
Horses eating from round bale 3/14/07.  Do these horses look starved?  They do have their winter coats which make them look unsightly, but this happens in ALL horses that live outside.  It is nature's defense against the cold. Starved?  Dirty from the mud, but starved? A different group of horses eating off from a fresh round bale of hay on 3/14/07
More horses eating 3/14/07.  Elvis standing there eating.  No one looks starved or abandoned

 

 Grain found in barn 3/14/07.  Again, looks like there is food on the property!  It was time to go get grain, but all farms run out and go get more.  Just as your refrigerator at home is not fully stocked ALL the time and you have to go to the grocery store, a farm is no different! If the farm was abandoned for 6 months, who put these tire tracks in the driveway on 3/15/07?  It is clear that someone has been there consistently.  There is far more than 1 set of tracks and there was no snow on 3/14/07.  The ruts in the driveway also clearly indicate traffic throughout the winter.
2 empty bottles of liquid Ivermectin.  This is used to de-worm the horses.  Notice the wheelbarrow with manure in it.  This is from cleaning the stalls! Again, testified under OATH no water found on property.
