Hi John,
Perdue’s Petaluma Poultry is trying to put me in prison because I exposed rampant misconduct at their facilities and rescued four chickens from their slaughterhouse, Poppy, Ivy, Aster and Azalea. I am facing four felonies, three misdemeanors, and the possibility of over thirteen years in prison for helping these animals. *I just wrote a blog about the rampant abuse and disease that Petaluma Poultry desperately wants to hide from the public. You can read it* *here* ( [link removed] ) *.*
The preliminary hearing for my case is this Friday and the prosecution will be presenting evidence to prove my charges should proceed to trial. ( Follow @PerdueTrial on Twitter ( [link removed] ) for updates from court.) Also, my university, UC Berkeley, just passed a resolution supporting the decriminalization of animal rescue, which you can read about in the university newspaper here ( [link removed] ).
I need your help to get justice, but not for myself. I want justice for Poppy, who on an early morning last June sat shivering in a transport crate, crowded together with her brothers and sisters like cargo. She longed for warmth, freedom, and to just stop hurting all the time. I also want justice for all of the chickens who haven’t been rescued, who are either suffering at this very moment or who have already lost their lives at the hands of Perdue.

This criminal case is not about me. I hope to be a representative for the chickens who have been so wronged by Petaluma Poultry and cannot speak for themselves in the court of law. You, too, can be a representative. Attend my preliminary hearing this Friday ( [link removed] ) in person in Santa Rosa if you’re able. Join our virtual action team chat on the free messaging app Signal ( [link removed] ) and please consider signing up to be a monthly donor ( [link removed] ) today. We must do everything we can to help the chickens abused by Petaluma Poultry. They need us.
Thank you,
Zoe Rosenberg
