i was actually just about to write about this on here.. that horse was taken away from a lady where i live, i work for a tv station that did a lot of coverage when this all happened. she had 20 horses in total at the place where she boarded them, the lady who actually reported it, actually told police about it in april, but the police said they weren't "bad" enough and couldn't do anything. the other horses along with rainaway were just as disturbing. along with being half starved, a lot of them had rainrot and their feet were all torn up.. today, another one was taken to the horse haven in knoxville because of dehydration.

if anyone wants to help out.. this is the info we put on our station:

HORSE HAVEN OF TENNESSEE

For information on how to donate:
865-609-4030
865-406-5762

when it first happened it seemed like it was just another horse cruelty case, but when we did the stories, NBC wanted to broadcast it nationally. i just hope with this coverage, even though it is bad, we make people realize that you just can't do this an animal. hopefully, it will mean some things will change.
