DEAR FRIENDS,
Many of you may remember Penny - the abandoned dog we found in 2020, on a highway while on our way to an illegal cockfight in Kentucky. She was scared, injured and covered in ticks (which she generously shared with the SHARK team).
After months of rehabilitation in her new, loving, forever home, Penny was fixed and received a clean bill of health. Penny loves to play with her toys and roll in the fall leaves.
Penny enjoying her wonderful life and catching up on years of missed belly rubs.

SHARK investigators started 2021 exposing a cockfight in Ohio and nearly getting killed, see video here. This violence didn't stop SHARK from exposing cockfights and corrupt law enforcement that protects illegal cockfighters throughout 2021, along with our other work for the animals. While 2021 was winding down, SHARK was still working hard for the animals.
Top: Cockfighter James Newcomb charging at President Steve Hindi to attack him. Second: Vehicle rammed off the road by James Newcomb and totaled. Bottom: President Steve Hindi in the hospital after the attack with gash in his head requiring six stitches, broken rib, separated back and numerous other injuries and bruises.
Watch the videos below and then contact Governor Andy Beshear, Attorney Daniel Cameron and Kentucky State Police Col. Phillip Burnett Jr. and demand they take action to shut down the cockfights in Kentucky! Their complicity in allowing illegal cockfights is not what the taxpayers are paying them for!
Please be polite and advise SHARK of any responses you receive.

Corrupt State Police Commissioner Exposed
As is often the case, SHARK investigators traveled on a holiday (Christmas) to document the cockfight at Charlie's Pit when it started the next morning and to report it to law enforcement. Unfortunately, this is the same Kentucky State Police Post 9 that is also protecting two other cockfight locations too.
KY State Police Protect Criminal Cockfighters
Cockfight busts in other states have proven that cockfights are a magnet for other illegal activity: drugs, weapons, gambling, and human trafficking. The following video and the woman in the photograph below is proof of this unfortunate fact.
Cockfighting and Prostitution
While some of SHARK's drone work was featured in Carol Baskin's Cage Fight and Tiger King 2 (Episode 5), there was so much more that wasn't, so check it out here.

Our Volunteer President Steve Hindi has never been paid while literally risking his life for the animals along with our other investigators.
