It is about time!!
One subject of an animal precinct show filed suit against them
after being found not guilty of abuse. The most recent article
on him that I could find was from 2003. Does anyone know what
happened with his suit? Is it still awaiting trial or was it
settled out of court?

Man Sues ASPCA, Animal Planet Over Cruelty Allegations
By Brian Carnell
Thursday, May 22, 2003
Newsday reports that New Yorker Rossano Case-Irwin has filed a $46 million
lawsuit against the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals,
Animal Planet, and the show Animal Precinct over allegations Animal Precinct
broadcast accusing Case-Irwin of cruelty to animals.
Animal Precinct showed ASPCA investigator Annemarie Lucas arresting
Case-Irwin on animal cruelty charges as well as featuring video documenting
Lucas'
investigation leading up to the arrest.
The case involve a horse that Case-Irwin owned which had a wound on its
belly. According to Case-Irwin it was a minor friction wound that a
veterinarian
informed Lucas was healing properly. Case-Irwin maintains Lucas ignored this
to make a case for the cameras.
Case-Irwin was found not guilty of animal cruelty by a jury, but claims he
lost his job as a result of the publicity over the case. Case-Irwin says the
show featuring his arrest continued to air after his exoneration.
