John,
I know you share our commitment to bringing animal abusers to justice — making them pay for their crimes and stopping them from abusing more animals. Over the last 40 years, we’ve successfully fought to hold animal abusers accountable, to ensure they receive appropriate sentencing including jail time and bans on possessing animals, and to win justice for the innocent animal victims — victims like Willow and Stormy.
Law enforcement in Virginia found Willow and Stormy, horses who were both pregnant and severely malnourished. Because of our legal expertise in fighting for animals, the prosecutor assigned to their case knew that by reaching out to us, we could provide the support needed to bring Willow’s and Stormy’s abuser to justice and achieve a positive outcome in the case:
- As a repeat offender, the abuser received two years in jail and a probation revocation.
- She has been prohibited from owning, possessing, and caring for horses for ten years.
- Thanks to the work of the prosecutor, local rescuers, and the support of people like you, today Willow and Stormy are thriving, as are their foals.
Even after 40 years of setting legal precedents in animal law and protecting animals through the legal system, we cannot stop in our pursuit of justice for innocent animals. As everyone at the Animal Legal Defense Fund — and all our supporters — proudly say, it’s for the animals. And with your support, we will continue to fight for animals for the next 40 years and beyond. Please join us with a contribution today to help us bring animal abusers to justice and give more animals like Willow and Stormy the healthy lives they deserve.

For the animals,
