Earlier this year, animal lovers were shocked and saddened following the devastating discovery of 25 dead, rotting horses on a farm on Maryland’s eastern shore. Nearly 20,000 of you signed LFT’s petition calling for justice, and we have a promising update: farm owner Barbara Pilchard has been charged with felony animal cruelty.
Pilchard now faces 48 misdemeanor counts of animal abuse and neglect, and 16 felony counts of animal cruelty.
When authorities visited the farm in March, they found many horses sickly, frightened and malnourished, while others were dead and in various stages of decay.
The horses “were so hungry, they had broken the glass sliding doors on the back of the house, trying to get in and find something to eat,” said Wicomico County Sheriff Mike Lewis.
This is not the first time Pilchard has been found abusing horses — she was charged with over 100 counts of animal neglect in 1995, but somehow escaped prosecution.
LFT will continue monitoring this case, and push for a lifetime ban on Pilchard ever owning an animal again.
What’s New…
Hi
Nice share.
I consider the best free cccam are those from Fishbone IPTV cloud
I would like to see more posts like this
Thanks
Why didn’t the authorities do something when they were there before? They are just as guilty for not taking action sooner.
Once again a sick and twisted individual was ALLOWED to starve these horses to death. She needs to be locked up for a LONG time! (Personally I think she needs the death penalty!).
Personally I feel that the punishment for harming any animal should be whatever they did to the animal be done to them so they know how it feels to be on the other end of the abuse, that’s the only way they will have a true understanding of what they have done! They will think twice before hurting another animal again!
WHY WAS SHE ALLOWED TO OWN HORSES AGAIN WHEN SHE DID THIS BEFORE & WHY WOULD SHE OWN HORSES TO STARVED THEM TO DEATH, IF SHE CANT FEED THEM WHY WOULD SHE GET MORE HORSES & STARVE THEM TO DEATH, SHE SHOULD BE IN PRISON & NEVER ALLOWED TO OWN ANY ANIMALS EVER AGAIN
The sooner she is behind bars the better
Stop this cruelty please
Pessoas que agem c crueldade de caso pensado, necessitam ser subtraídas da sociedade e não monitoradas.
CADEIA P ELES.
Cruelty of any sort is just terrible.
just one thing to say…VIGILANTE JUSTICE
A lifetime ban is NOT enough; she needs to get serious jail time. She escape punishment once before and obviously no one checked to make sure she was not mistreating horses again.
Are you frigin kidding me, She had ONCE before got animal cruelty charges, she was charged with over 100 counts of animal neglect in 1995, but somehow escaped prosecution that is like letting out a big time murderer kill and some how skipped the system. What a bunch of Dumb Ass-s. What is wrong with THAT PICTURE?? 1995 she does this & nothing happens to her & NOW again??
This woman deserves the felony charges now laid against her. It is a serious case. These charges are current but she was charged in 1995 with the same offence. No further evidence is necessary in this case – the push to have this woman denied any contact with animals into the future is justified. She does not care for them at all.
This woman should be put through the same type of torture that she inflicted on these horses. SHe is the worst of a human!! Put in the ground.
Really sad commentary on humanity!
This woman is a monster , she deserves to be in jail for a long time. No animal should ever suffer at her hands again . Ban her for life.
He needs to be punished and make it count
This cruel monster needs to be punished!
This monster needs to be locked up!
Seriously, keep fighting to bring justice to God knows how many animals past including present have suffered at the hands of these people that should probably not even own a goldfish because it would suffer. There are some people on this planet that should not go near anything living. I wish there was just a place just for people like that.
Thank you for charging this woman with animal cruelty. Yes, “throw the book at her”. I cannot believe how many cruel, stupid people there are that walk among us. I am so tired of these awful people
so happy that this women has been charged with abuse and animal cruelty. throw the book at her . how awful disgusting that these beautiful horses went through that. poor excuse for a human being. people who do these kind of acts and abuse any kind of living animal are SOULLESS. God will take care of these kind of people who do such unspeakable acts.
April M said it all in her comment of 6/17/18. Maximum punishment for this sociopath and NEVER allowed to have animals again.
Well,,,,,,,My thoughts, add the 100 counts from 1995 to these 48 misdemeanor counts of animal abuse & neglect & 16 felony counts of animal cruelty & neglect. Absolutely, she should not, never, not ever for as long as she should live (although the horses didn’t). BUT this is on helluva sadistic, psychopathic woman who is a danger to all of society. No living, breathing being is safe around her! Barbara Pilchard is about as low down as can be! Why should she get a small fine, a probated or suspended sentence (like 1995) or a pawltry little fine when she caused the deaths of so very many helpless, hapless beautiful horses? She deserves to pay a HIGH PRICE!
ALL ANIMAL LIVES MATTER ALL THE TIME AND ALWAYS!
