One got a petty theft charge. We contacted over 20 officials demanding answers on the torture. The mayor told us it was not his problem. Twenty officials found time to ignore us. Not one has contacted Ginger's devastated owner.

Congresswoman Mace, where were you when Animal Victory begged your office to help get justice for Ginger, a cat tortured by three teenage girls in your district? 🐱💔 100+ hours, dozens of letters, $500 in hand-delivered petitions. Not one word back from you. 📝🙏😤
One girl got a larceny charge. That was it. ⚖️😡
Now you are introducing legislation and posting about how much you love animals. 🐾 We are glad animal cruelty is on your radar. But the animals in your own district needed you first and you were nowhere to be found. 👀🚨
Tune in to The Animal Court Podcast next week. 🎙️⚖️ We will be mentioning your name, talking about Ginger, and discussing what it means when elected officials show up for animals only when there is a political headline attached. 📢🐱
America should not be a sanctuary for animal abusers. We agree completely. Start with the ones already here. 🇺🇸✊🐾

🚨 THE NEIGHBOR NEXT DOOR: THE HIDDEN ABUSE 🚨
It is happening RIGHT NOW- in your neighborhood, behind the fence you walk past every morning. The animal suffering in silence while life goes on all around it, because the person causing that suffering is someone you know. 😔
For years, Animal Victory has fought to expose what most people never want to believe is this close to home. Now, we are taking that fight FURTHER. 🔥
Animal Victory Disaster and Abuse Fund, a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, is proud to introduce THE ANIMAL COURT podcast! 🎙️🐾
Hosted by Animal Victory Founder Janelle Babington alongside veteran investigative journalist Paul Mueller, this non-political podcast is dedicated to exposing the hidden world of animal abuse.
We investigate the cases that fall through the cracks. The abusers who hide behind closed doors. The systems that FAIL to protect dogs and cats. 🐶🐱
Every episode is a case file. Every story is a call to action.
Together, WE can build a community that holds abusers accountable and demands a system that TRULY protects our most vulnerable animals. 💪❤️
