UPDATE!
MORE DEAD BODIES, STILL
NO JUSTICE!
Large animal vet Dr. B
performs a necropsy (animal autopsy) on yet another unfortunate creature
that succumbed to the ravages of starvation, what many believe to be a
direct result of owner neglect. |
|
 |
This animal died despite
weeks of care after being removed from the farm where the previous owner
refused to feed, water or provide medical care for the more than thirty
animals on the property he leased. |
|
 |
The death toll grew even
higher when Pasado's returned to the grisly scene where the animals
suffered months of starvation. While KING5, a local TV station,
filmed, we discovered an additional three carcasses that has not
been previously identified. To our knowledge Snohomish County Animal
Control has not investigated this incident as a crime.
Many concerned neighbors saw what was happening to the cattle and
offered free hay to the farmer over the past months, but were rebuffed
and sometimes threatened. Some of the same people provided
transportation to the surviving cattle after the farmer finally relented
and allowed the animals to be moved to a better environment, but only
after animals started to die.

|
 |
To Pasado's and to this
community, the fact that this farmer has been allowed to walk away from
the carnage scott-free is an outrage.
