Animal abuse case to be heard locally


The editor:

I just want to inform the public that the trial related to the starvation/death of horses in Rowan County is scheduled for April 22 at 10:30 in Morehead.

There was food on the farm; the horses simply were not fed or watered.

A lot of people are very interested in this animal abuse case. I hope people will attend the trial to see how this case is handled in court.

The only question is, “Can animals suffer?” Imagine how long it takes a horse to starve to death.

Animal abuse has got to stop. You can help by watching these cases.
