My mare was stolen by a creep named Cody Snyder in Amarillo, texas. He came to look at my gelding and told me he thought his uncle might be interested in buying her because he was with another boy I had known for years I mistakenly trusted him. He drove off with her never to be seen again. I have found him now and want to not only shoot his balls off but get my horse back
To those of us who are professionals in the equine industry these crimes are just as serious now as they were a hundred years ago. A horse is not just livestock or just a pet – it is a partner and a friend. It is the livelihood of many with Florida being the third-ranked state of the industry nationwide. Slaughter, in the field or in the rendering house is generally done very cruelly and inhumanely. And to leave the dismembered carcass tied is beyond barbaric and cruel. I personally believe hanging is too good for this scum. Drawing and quartering would be much more suitable! If you aren’t in the horse industry you don’t know enough about the issue to make any rational comment, assumption, or proclamation!
The scum horse thieves stole some horses from someone’s field, tied them to some nearby trees and butchered them right there leaving the remains tied to the tree. So I don’t take kindly to your idiotic uninformed views. Those ass holes should rot in hell and I hope they get buckshot in their ass the next time they try it. People, research horse stealing, and this guys comments won’t seem so funny anymore.
This more than likely Meskins. They are know for this kind of crap
What if you’re stealing a horse because they are living in a deplorable living situation. And you also have the means of taking care of that horse??
If the authorities won’t save the animal…I would probably do it! At that point it would be rescue, not theft!
Not only his possible livelihood, but to steal a man’s horse (and the supplies which it carries) in the open plains, eighty miles from any help, and he will likely die a rather unpleasant death from exposure, dehydration or starvation. It is absolutely an appropriate sentence in such a situation. It comes from the old standard: “get what you seek to give others.”
you may not take horse theft seriously, but I do, To much horse theft is now for horse meat trade.
Well, it’s easy in current times to scoff at a law like this. But it shows our ignorance of the crucial importance that some things held in previous times.
There were times in the history of America when a horse was not a luxury, but a necessity: for transportation, and sometimes for livelihood. The theft of a man’s horse could leave him destitute. We don’t take this stuff seriously at all, now . . but the penalty for taking a man’s transportation and livelihood when they were crucial, was the death penalty.
where is this found in the statutes?
