Indiana Shelter Director Told Staff to Freeze Cats to Death [View all]

[Bayard]

Bridgett Woodson is a lifelong animal lover who was thrilled to be hired by the Spencer County Animal Shelter in Indiana earlier this year.
Unfortunately, that dream job quickly turned into a nightmare. Woodson began noticing red flags, like minimal veterinary care for the animals and the shelter not contacting rescue groups when it was full.

Then the unthinkable happened: Woodson says her supervisor, shelter director Christina Payne, told her to put a live kitten inside the freezer.

Why isn't this woman at least charged with animal cruelty?
I think this is more common than anyone realizes. I worked for a vet many years ago. Total sociopath, so I didn't last long. I saw him put a dog down, and then throw it in the freezer while it was still breathing. He also kept a dog alive that had been brought in to be put down several days to use it for transfusions to another client's dog. And on and on. What he did behind closed doors was way different than his public face. I tried to report him to the ASPCA after I left, but didn't get anywhere. He eventually opened a second office.
