Some of those horses might get their ass kicked and are a little skinnier. We don’t check them every day.




but i'm betting he gets three squares a day.

I doubt he purposely did any of this its fricken horse food

i think he purposely turned away from what he knew full well was going on. but if you want to attempt a defense of the indefensible, go for it.

That doesn’t jibe with what Richard Baiardi told the Paulick Report. Baiardi, who transports and re-sells horses across the United States, said he had talked with Paragallo about taking the horses but that he picked them up at Center Brook Farm much later than December. “I don’t have the exact date,” he told the Paulick Report as he was driving his van through North Dakota on Friday. “But I can tell you one thing: it wasn’t in December. You can call the horse sale and find out what day they arrived, and that’s the day I picked them up.” Baiardi said he has van logs and other documentation to account for the date he picked the horses up at Center Brook.

When asked later about the discrepancy in dates, Paragallo hedged, saying he couldn’t be certain the horses left his farm in December.


“This kind of neglect doesn’t happen overnight, or in three weeks or even two months. The vet reports shouldn’t have been as bad as they were."

the descriptions of the horses in the paulick report, posted above, doesn't describe the horses as being 'fine'. walking skeletons, lice infested. two died that morning...yeah, the picture of health. :rolleyes:

that doesn't surprise me at all. anyone who would come on here and defend starving and selling horses to a kill pen could certainly stoop pretty low i'm sure.

Danzig there is zero chance EP had ANY clue.. If you wish to argue that he should have been more diligent with knowning axactly where his stock was going fine..if you think for a second he thought his stock which he raised raced bred and care for was in squallor you are completely dilussional.. The guy is wealthy clearly the money is completely insiginficant.. he f'd up by not paying closer attention trust me it was completely unintentional!!!

which makes the fact that these horses were starved that much more reprehensible in my opinion. he's the owner, he's responsible- it's that simple. and i'm far from delusional. the horses were in rotten condition when the driver went to get them, according to the story two were already dead. the dates don't add up, no name for some supposed farm, no number. it's a bs story. paragallo crawfishing on the dates....gimme a break.
and for you to joke that maybe it's a great weight loss system, that's just sick.

He says it was a home run for his business (to get rid of these horses.) Wouldn't you remember the name of the guy who was doing you a big favor?
