what i do know is no horse deserves to be neglected, mistreated, starved, or allowed to become infested with parasites. there is no excuse for what they found on that farm, especially when you consider that paragallo isn't exactly destitute.
i hope he is never allowed to own an animal of any kind ever again.

Superb fair minded article, but to ask what to do with the alleged unwanted horses and come up with one answer is crap ...
Both pro-slaughter and anti-slaughter factions know that all horses can not be found homes .
But there is more than one answer, and it should be one of several NOT allowing the owner to profit on the food value of said animal ...
