Holey moley. The person who wrote this original email has most certainly blown this out of porportion. Here is what ABC says about the program: "And John Stossel has an eye-opening report on his yearlong investigation into SPCA's animal rescues." I'd LOVE to know who wrote this inflammatory original email circulating on every animal board in the world right now. What an idiot.

They sell the stolen animals immediately and keep the money saying they are abused and neglected. Three year investigation into the sloppy incompetence of SPCA/Humane Societies. Judges - DAs - City Attorneys - Police - Sheriffs - Constables - and out Legislators go along with it. Are they in it too? Lives are devastated. Suicide - Jail - Savings Depleted. We've all been fooled into donating to these groups. They kill and put the pets to sleep.
