I'm inclined to say the other considering the sending of the broodmares to slaughter by Assmussen's dad Cash was in July 2012 and Steve Assmusen, I figure doesn't do much hiring at the end of the summer.

A NY PETA operative knowing the barn was coming to NY in 2013 sounds plausible to me. Did she work at Toga first and then CD or the other way around?

Most shocking to me is Blassi doesn't know how to google or he would have known he was dating a PETA operative involved in the Bunny case.

That was the part that got me, too. I mean, people are instructed to go through and wipe their FB pages when they're looking for work and this woman still gets the gig even though the top hit when you google her name is the bunny thing?

I suspect Blassi was thinking with the other brain?

Do you really think that trainers / asst trainers are 'googling' barn help when they show up for work?

Those guys are lucky if they have enough consistent help, let alone have time to actually research their prior employment. Every groom that comes by the barn looking for work has worked for some 'top' outfit. Favorites I have heard was Bill Mott or Pletcher. LOL.

Even when they become a girlfriend?

No. They are grossly incompetent for not doing so...especially considering this barn being in the spotlight the last few years.

What I'm interested to see is if they had other operatives in different barns. Surely someone in PETA was aware of how easy it was to gain access.
