Who's in charge?

State officials "we" have been able to reach have referred us back to Jackson County officials as far as finding who JCAC is accountable to.

These are the email addresses of the Jackson County Board of Commissioners. This is publicly available information. Write to them and demand an explanation for the condition that horses in JCAC's care are in. Demand accountability. Demand a third party investigation of the premises which JCAC found unsuitable for horses, but has not removed the horses from. We need the investigation done prior to the final scheduled auction on Nov. 4, so time is of the essence!

Let them know how you feel about the documented parasite infestations found in JCAC horses, about the lack of farrier care, about the ribs and other bones plainly in sight. Obviously, it would be best if you've been to one or all of the auctions, or have hands-on contact with one or more horses purchased at the auctions. Photos, like the one of Slim at the top right of the blog, are compelling but irrelevant to officials ... let them know if you have put a hand on one of these horses and felt the bones yourself, or if you have documentation in hand of the fecal results.
