This is absolutely true and each SEPARATE incident was reported to the local
county sheriff, but in each incident they had no evidence to go on, as there
was only intestines, skin, and offal left. Because each was separate, I
don't think anyone is working on them. We have a very small force and they
only work on incidents where there is a way to procede. Now these farmers
are not saying that the meat was well wrapped or carefully handled, but was
butchered in the field.
