This blog is dedicated to the rescue and rehabilitation of abused and neglected horses. It is a cause in which we believe and devote much of our time and resources. We hope that you will be touched by that you see and read here and will make a donation to help us help the Horses. Our new rescue organization is the Virginia Equine Welfare Society.

Couple get jail time for animal abuse

King and Queen County, Virginia
Last week Mr. and Mrs. Amos plead quilty after testimony was heard in their case on 10 counts of animal abuse. They were sentenced to 10 years in jail each. All but 6 months were suspended and they will be on probation for 5 years. This case started in 2010 when 33 horses were seized by the county and turned over  for rehabilitation. Our thanks go out to the dedicated volunteers  who were involved in this rescue and rehabilitation and saw this case through to the end.
