So, is everybody ready to get back to business? I’m not sure I am, but things are piling up again which means yet another heavy post. I’d like to say I had a nice break but that really wasn’t the case either. The fuckery continues and escalates no matter what, leaving me with more than usual to wrestle with. As usual there is a so much deceit and grifting going on it’s kinda difficult to follow, but I’m going to do my best to lay it all out. I’m not sure if the Manson Family are upping the ante or we’re just getting better at catching the grift. I gotta say that even I was surprised at how low they sank these past few weeks. I don’t think I can even get it all covered in one post so I’m going to do deal with general and run of the mill fuckery today and we’ll get to the bulk of the auction fuckery in the next one or so. I hope that works for everybody because it’s time to settle in. I have some tea to spill!
Even though I was only really away for a couple of days, the theories of where I was and why I was away were somewhat amusing. None of them were based in fact or even all that exciting. Seriously, I am the world’s worst sick person and there is nothing more to it than that. Man flu has nothing on me! It doesn’t even really matter other than when you are wrong about something and don’t acknowledge that, then it’s kinda hurts whatever other facts you may have. In the interest of that, it seems the intel on the inaugural Manson Does Texas trip was slightly off. Originally, it was said she went to some Mean Girls Conference and, I gotta admit, that never did feel 100% right unless she went as a specimen or a bad example. It turns out that isn’t what she was doing when she went on that trip. She was actually at the Lady Boss Weight Loss dealio as pictured above, and yes, that is Manson right there smiling for the group photo-op. The other screenshots are from previous weight loss attempts that the donors all got to pay for as well. Don’t get me wrong, I applaud anybody’s efforts to improve their health and fitness. I do have a problem with grifting for it though. I especially have an issue when you have to fly half way across the country to do some aerobics with the latest social media sensation when you could probably just get off your ass and do chores right where you live and have a total win/win situation that doesn’t break any laws and consist of lying to people on the internet. Also, if people recall, Manson went on and on about that being her first trip to Texas and how much she loved it there. That was then…
Flash forward to a few weeks ago and a few trips to the Lonestar state under her belt and, all of a sudden, we’re having `family emergencies’ there. I’m not quite sure how that works, but I’ve been trying to manifest a family emergency somewhere tropical for myself but so far no luck. Why is any of this relevant? Normally it really wouldn’t be. I don’t really care about how far she has to search for some peen and I also don’t really care when she lies to her team. They should be used to that by now. What I do care about is the pattern of lying and that old six degrees of separation thing just kicking her square in the ass. Manson just so happened to end up sitting next to some nice people who, while originally unaware of her and who she was, were subjected to a flight full of lies and boasts. To make matters even better, they happen to know more than a few people on the `hater’ side of things. So yeah, Manson opened by introducing herself and who she is and proceeded to tell them how important she was and that there was even a blog about her. That’s when she showed them this blog. (Welcome new haters, enjoy your stay.) Manson also told them that she had booked the trip on a whim to `get away from it all’ after the haters had the FBI raid the ranch, which was also not true. The FBI were not part of the little party at the ranch the other week. As is often the case with people that love to hear themselves speak, Manson forgot what she had told them in the first part of the flight and later said she had booked her Texas trip a `long time ago’ when there was a $29 seat sale. What are the odds she would know so far in advance that she would have a family emergency on that day? Anyhow, y’all were curious about the airplane incident so that’s what I know other than that she was discussing vaginas in under 10 mins. Moving right along…
I think I’m just going to drop these pictures of the general conditions at HiCaliber before we get into more specific updates. These are all very recent pics and as you can see, it’s pretty crowded and dangerous there despite what Manson claims. This is what happens when you have more horses you can properly care for. Fences don’t get repaired, things don’t get noticed. Call me a snob or whatever, but this kinda looks like a bad backyard that horses should be rescued from.
Umbra appears to be holding her own which is good to see. There is some controversy over the whole lactating mare thing. It happens, but I’m not sure whatever it is that Eclipse is producing is enough to sustain a growing and healing baby, so hopefully milk replacer is involved as well. Regardless of what is being fed, Umbra seems to have replaced Magnum as far as who the majority of the village idiots ask after or seem concerned with. I guess he outgrew his cute factor and isn’t sad enough to hold their attention right now. Perhaps a crisis situation could be created to bump his algorithms or something. I did notice he has some old wound or scar on his nose on the latest live feed so perhaps that could be blown well out of proportion for some sympathy dollars or something.
Since we’ve discussed Umbra, we should probably look right across the alleyway to Legacy. In a recent live feed, we could see all the red tape in the stall across from Eclipse and Umbra. No explanation was given but apparently that means `hard quarantine’ or something. What hard quarantine is vs regular quarantine is anybody’s guess, but it doesn’t seem to be working. Legacy is currently very sick and has burst out some abscesses under his jaw. I’m pretty sure we’re still not allowed to call it what it is *cough*strangles*cough*, and I’m also not entirely sure wtf bandaging it is supposed to accomplish unless they are trying to drive that abscess internal and really mess him up. This has been going on for well over a week and he was on IV support last I heard. I’m sure now that this is out in the open Manson will refuse to do any updates on him because she’s not your bitch and all. No word on whether or not he’s seen a real vet, but if he has, I want to know who would suggest bandaging a throat like that and make sure that vet never sets foot near one of my animals.
Remember Gigi? She is the cute little black mare with the busted up knee and droopy eye they bought from one of their regular flippers back around mid January. We haven’t really heard too much about Gigi since then other than she is relatively sound and `cute’. The pictures are above are from the day they bought her in the parking lot at auction. Wanna see how she’s doing barely a month later? Of course you do!
These pics were taken of Gigi within the last week. As you can see her filthy bandage is like a tourniquet on her leg now that it has slipped and her droopy eye goes unprotected or cleaned up. I don’t really see where `rescue’ has happened for this horse. She is not in as good of condition as she was when they purchased her a month ago and it’s not like she is living in paradise either. I’m concerned for her, but I’m concerned for a lot of HiCaliber horses right now.
This brings us to Trish. I’ve been back and forth about whether I should write about her or not. I realize doing so is maybe going to hurt her chances at getting out of HiCaliber alive, but her chances of that have always been bad since being an adoption return. Having said that, I think there is some information that is almost criminal to withhold and also to not reveal what is going on with this particular horse is setting her up for failure as well. My only hope is that she can get out and land softly with somebody that has all the information. That being said….
Trish is the little bay mare pictured above being used in Amanduh’s lesson program. I’m not going to get into the WTFedness of the entire scenario as far as lessons go, or that the children appear to be strapped to the tack, but just that Trish is being used and has been used for a while since being an adoption return last fall. She did not last long at adoption, but the people who had her, took the time to get her properly vetted and made that report available to HiCaliber. Please note the dates on the letter below.
Trish was returned as being neurological and deemed unsafe for use as a lesson horse. Since that time she has been used regularly for lessons and is now advertised as a light rider and previously a kid’s horse even though they were well aware of her issues. She’s already a one time adoption return so I think it’s safe to say if she went out and came back again she’d be as good as dead as Manson will call her a hay burner. I sincerely hope that posting this doesn’t place her at greater risk either. We don’t know why she’s neurological but I can bet that no further diagnostics were done to find out they whys and hows of it either. I guess I couldn’t live with myself if somebody got seriously hurt by adopting her and thinking everything was fine and I had information that proved otherwise. I also would hate to think of kids learning to ride on an unsafe horse. I really don’t know what the right thing to do with this is other than pray this little mare doesn’t pay for somebody else’s greed and ignorance.
If you recall, we put Diane on a milk carton back in December as she had dropped off the radar. Part of the problem at HiCaliber lately is that horses just kinda disappear off the radar and the village idiots have been conditioned not to ask too may questions. That’s why the milk carton horses when we can’t find out answers any other way. Sadly, we got our answer for Diane and she was found dead in her pen sometime in December. No cause of death has been made official and I haven’t seen anybody asking after her either. This mare was a parking lot purchase from Salvador back in November. Emaciated at the time, I’m not sure if she ever did gain any weight or have a few good days. Hopefully, she is at peace now. RIP Diane. #sayhername
Waco was a parking lot purchase a few weeks back. I believe he came from Nacho but will have to update that in a bit. He was clearly in a lot of pain but because Manson’s x ray eyes did not diagnose the severe rotation in his coffin bones, he was kept alive for some additional fundraising and parading around for the camera. There were all sorts of contradictions with him. He was `thought’ to be a compassion pull, then he was one for sure and then Manson’s FUPA got involved and told her he didn’t want to die yet so they needed more money to actually do the xrays. However, another horse had been immediately adopted so her responsible rescue fees were supposed to slide over to Waco, but they didn’t and then Manson had to go to Texas for her `family emergency’ that didn’t actually involve family or any other sort of emergency other than being horny. All that added up to Amanduh getting the news that this horse was in all kinds of pain and not fixable on a Friday. Sadly for Waco, this meant he got to linger in pain for an extra few days until Manson came home and shot him in the face. RIP Waco. #sayhisname
Clancy also experienced death by Manson in recent weeks. He was another Salvador special back in early January and never seemed to resonate with the village. He was also said to be older so that, along with showing `significant’ lameness likely sealed his fate. Seriously though, who gets on a horse to find out if it’s lame? Wouldn’t most sane people figure that out first? Wouldn’t an intake by a real vet include a cursory soundness exam? Again, how was this horse rescued and what was his quality of life like since landing at HiCaliber? RIP Clancy. #sayhisname
Poor Mas. She almost made it out alive. Her place was all secured at Prancing Pony Sanctuary and HiCaliber even had a post up begging for the hauling money. What they didn’t tell people was that she was dead the same day by Manson’s hand. I wish I knew the reason why or what sense there is to make of any of this. I know it wasn’t announced and kept very quiet for a few days. It was only when somebody actually asked Prancing Pony that they admitted that Mas was dead and they were getting a replacement grey mare or something like that. It’s hard to follow and especially so when Prancing Pony doesn’t seem to ever update HiCaliber horses they absorb into their program. What we do know is that Mas came from Nacho and that Romney Faye had known about her for several months. For whatever reason, she was not deemed worthy of `saving’ until it was too late for her. RIP Mas. #sayhername
Crackers has also recently been sent to the land of the blue tarps. Again, I have no idea why. She came with the usual convoluted back story about a poor old rancher that was about to get foreclosed on so he had nowhere to turn. I forget whether the part of the rancher was played by Salvador or Nacho that week, but it was one of those guys and she came with a buddy they named `Salami’. For some reason the old rancher didn’t know the name of his own `beloved horses’ so it was up to Manson’s children to do the honors. Crackers was cute and was seen on video following people around without a halter a few times. Only a few weeks ago, they were bandaging some mysterious wound on her, but she was otherwise doing `great’ and people were even making adoption inquiries. Now she’s dead. RIP Crackers #sayhername
Probably not a huge surprise that Clarence was shot in the head recently. He was in pretty bad shape and came through the regular flipper channels. Once again the very people who mangled him were rewarded for his suffering with $200. The difference is Clarence’s brand is really easily traceable with a direct connection to Salvador.
Clarence’s brand came from Rancho Caballero. They are big into horse tripping and think bucking out weanlings is great sport. The above pics are just a smattering of their social media activities. They don’t try to hide what they do, they’re proud of it. Do I think Clarence was a tripping horse? No, they don’t brand those usually. I think Clarence was sat on to trip quite a few and when they were done with him, they tossed him aside to suffer before HiCaliber created a market for their abuse. These guys are friends of Salvador’s and participate in the same rodeos. These people are the ones hurting these animals and HiCaliber and its village reward them for it. Paying them finder’s fees is not helping the problem, it’s escalating it. What true rescue or animal lover would ever protect people like this? RIP Clarence. #sayhisname
Blake is also another blue tarp victim in recent weeks. As mentioned before, the other livestock being drug back to HiCaliber have a worse fatality rate than the equines and take up even less of the village idiots’ attention. Blake was brought in around the first of the month and said to have pneumonia. We aren’t entirely sure if that was his deal as he was also leaking urine and we know that Dr. Talbot does not generally treat animals. There has been a disturbing pattern of the 30% vet diagnosing these animals and giving them inappropriate treatments. Mostly they do not survive. They suffer too and as often as we can find out their fates, we’ll say their names too. RIP Blake #sayhisname
Her name was Beatrice. At least that’s what I’m told. There was never a big announcement about it and her sad little life didn’t last long once she got into Manson’s clutches. Such is the trend lately that horses are being brought in and euthanized before they barely get a name. She was another flipper special and it is doubtful there was ever much intention of rehabbing her. She obviously served somebody or many people well over the years and I find it sad her ending was staring at Manson in the face as she got blown away. RIP Beatrice. #sayhername
I have to admit this one disturbs me a bit more than usual. Jackson Max was bought at auction back in July. He was very thin and agitated in the intake video and Manson aged him somewhere around 10 years old if memory serves. We didn’t hear a bunch about him before he popped up on their Greens and Ghouls event for $200 and sometime after that he either went to foster or training. Again, I’m not entirely sure although he was brought back to the ranch recently and took up residence behind the `hard qt’ red tape in the barn. As of this past weekend Jackson Max is dead. The details on that are where it gets disturbing…

Tarp with a trail of congealed blood and manure after Jackson Max’s death
Jackson Max’s death upset quite a few people apparently. Honesty, we don’t know which horse was the one that bled out by the tarps, but at least two died that day and he was one of them. They usually go in twos so it could have been whoever else had to join him that weekend. The amount of blood doesn’t exactly paint a picture of a `nearly no blood’ or peaceful death for me. It certainly didn’t for the person that took the picture who was even more upset knowing who that blood probably belonged to. Then we have the mention of deconning his stall and the picture of it (beside Legacy’s stall) with the red QT tape all over it. Draw your own conclusions on that and remember the two foals are living in the same barn. To make matters worse you have a volunteer that almost apologizes for being upset at the loss of this young horse. I probably shouldn’t even feel sorry for this particular volunteer since she has been somewhat of a nuisance to this blog, but I get it. She wants to believe in what she’s doing and now maybe, just maybe, this will be enough to wake her the fuck up or at least stop normalizing this type of behavior. At the end of the day I just care about a young horse that by many accounts didn’t really need to die. RIP Jackson Max #sayhisname

Countdown clocks rather than names make more sense at HiCal these days…
I think that’s probably enough for one day. We’re certainly not all caught up, not even on our deaths, but we’ve made a dent. I actually thought taking a break, even if it was longer than planned, might calm the crazy down a bit. If anything it’s escalated. Manson seems to be completely losing her shit all over social media. Some people on this side of the fence are joining her. Auction is such a complete joke I’m still trying to figure out where to start with that post, but it’s coming very soon. I also have a special treat post coming up soon too. I was only gone a few days and there is a definite shift in the feel of things. Of course, along with that comes the people wanting to force hands and play out their own agenda. Human nature and all, and also not my problem. I also know there are a lot of various threats getting thrown about in attempts to silence people. I find that telling. If all this is so wrong, if everything posted is just some personal agenda, then wouldn’t it be more productive and effective to bat it aside and dispute it with truth rather than attempt to threaten people into silence? Makes me wonder what exactly is being protected that we haven’t uncovered yet. It certainly doesn’t motivate me to stop shining a light. Thanks to everybody, especially our `moles’ , that continue to hang in there with us and fight the good fight. There is light at the end of the tunnel and this time, it is not an oncoming train. It’s not our job to defend the truth but only to set it free. For that reason, we stay the course.
Agree there too.
It’s coyote mating season. They are looking for food. Most likely the guinea fowl that roam all over the damn place. I’m sure the blood doesn’t help. I can’t see them attacking a horse either not even a pack of them. The coyotes don’t come into my yard and I only have two dogs, 60 and 80#’s respectively. (I also have two cats but they hang out with dogs.)
I forget it’s mating season. When they are closing in on a kill the wild yapping is little creepy. I’ve had one bold guy come investigate my front porch.
At my old house they lived in the field out back. They were always loud and you definitely knew when they killed something. I agree it’s a creepy sound. They coyotes would send the female to my back fence to try and bait my Lab. They are pretty smart animals that’s why I can’t see them trying to attack a horse. I could see them running through a pasture after a bird or small critter. What I don’t understand is why doesn’t she shoot them? She doesn’t have a problem with shooting anything else.
I have heard of the coyotes using that tactic before. I didn’t know how reliable the source was so it’s interesting to hear it first hand.
Right? I can’t see her not going out and taking shots at the coyotes.
It’s interesting to see. It always looks as if the female wants to play, lol. I keep my dogs on lock down so they don’t get out of the fence. Only one coyote has come into my yard since we moved, it only came once (when we 1st got here) and it didn’t work out in his favor. No one has a problem shooting at them here especially if they have picked up someone’s tiny dog.
Wish they would trap them instead of killing them and bring them to my neck of the woods. Lots for them to eat here. They don’t seem to be bothering any ones pets here.
There was a program that would trap then do a depo pravera (sp?) shot to help keep the population down. I’m not sure if it worked or if they are still doing it but I thought it was interesting.
Yes, they will send females to lure dogs out and then the pack will swarm in.
Let’s not give her any ideas where the coyotes are concerned. She has enough to play target practice with. Ugh!
WOW, they are all chicken around here, by that I mean they stay pretty far away from the house, they’re not really fowl.
I used to love the sounds of them `singing’ at night. We always had a fairly peaceful coexistence with them on our ranch.
Not to gross everyone out. But coyotes will and do kill horses, in the wild during foaling or a down older or injured horse. And like the old guy that got out of the pen and couldn’t get up – coyotes come in and start snatching at the anus and genitals. They disembowel the horse, not bring it down like a puma. You will find a wild horse with its entire butt end and innards pulled out and/or gone. The horse dies of shock. If a mare foaling, they have easy access to the genitals and anus. Could be one reason foaling mares get up and move – to keep the scent off, besides getting a better angle for pushing. Coyotes are not to be taken lightly around aged horses in pasture.
The ranchers here kill them and hang the bodies on the fence. I hate coyotes! A lot of people don’t believe they pack up, makes me sick. They pack up trying to get to people at work, seen it more than once
Wow!
I’ve seen people hang their bodies up too and I never knew why. Mostly I look away. All God’s creatures and all. I’ll protect my own, but I’d prefer not to kill something that is only doing what it was born to do.
They do it because it usually deters more hunting by the coyotes, because yes they do feed on calves. We have plenty of bunnies and other rodents, however a calf or dog or something similar will feed a larger family of coyotes
Really? I never thought of that. Yes, we lost barn cats to them but I really don’t recall losing livestock. For sure they’ll try to lure a dog out too.
Amen sister!
We were out walking our dogs in a more public yet rural area and a coyote keep stalking and pacing us. I wondered if their was more in the bushes because of his bravery. I’m pretty sure I yelled and threw things at him with no luck.
My man child and I had a pretty heated discussion about if he would snatch the little dogs off the leash even with the big dog around. I ended up carrying one and trying to keep the other between me and the coyote.
I can guarantee there were more in the bushes, they will form a circle that u can’t see. I’ve had to whistle at people at work cuz I could see where they were coming for him, they are scary. Walking my dogs after work, they took my Boston, you will absolutely know when they have dinner. It’s an absolutely horrible feeling and I’m glad you carried yours, better to be safe
How horrible for you 😦
Oh! Sorry to hear about your Boston… I have heard and read that they are breeding to dogs. I think they are called Coydogs. Not very inventive. I think I’ve also seen a blurb about breeding to wolves but I haven’t stopped to read anything on it.
That’s just stupid if you ask me. Who well did that work out with the wolf hi breed…..
I’m following you. The wolf hybrids I’ve seen were hard to keep weight on.
I’m talking about this
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coywolf
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coydog
Your talking about breeding coyotes to domesticated dogs right? It’s ridiculous and would cause all kinds of problems like the wolf hybrids did because of them still being feral.
No I’m talking about how they are actually breeding in the wild to dogs. I heard about it and didn’t know if I believed it since I thought they ate dog so I read more about it.
Oh ok, it certainly would be unfortunate. Sure wish more people were on board with spay and neuter.
I agree, I wish that they would make more affordable spay and neuter available. There are some programs the are specific to certain areas or certain breeds and that is helpful but still not enough.
A pet peeve: In some cases, it is sheer laziness and ignorance. Others, it is a desire for the fees that backyard breeders can get by breeding their dogs. In our area some of our vets get grants and do low cost spay and neuter, or the breed specific on occasion, plus there is a low income spay and neuter program at all times.
I used to volunteer to take some of my HH clients animals in to those programs, provide transport, and many times, pay the entire fee. I was almost always turned down. “I believe in letting nature take its course,” “I might want babies out of her,” you name it. It was enough to make me cry.
That is the downside. People are frustrating with their ideas and justifications. I’ve offered to take cats in to have them fixed to stop the over population and turning them into part of the food chain here. I hear the complaints but then when I offer it turns into well… It’s not my cat/ kittens.
I’m sure there are a few other options here than the ones I’m aware of but it can be difficult for those who want to be responsible pet owners to get it done.
I’m going to add “I’m sorry…” it’s hard to try and help then receive a line of hogwash.
D, your a girl after my own heart! I am a huge spay and neuter fan. I try to help and encourage my clients to spay and neuter as well tell them about programs and so on. Some are just a bad backyard. No way around it. I would love to have my mares spayed if I could. Unfortunately it isn’t very safe or a smart thing to do.
Should’ve said how not who.
Coyotes have come into the offleash dog parks here from what I’ve heard too.
It’s kinda a sad situation since they are loosing much of their habitat.
They are becoming a threat and nuisance in many areas, even in the cities. Many instances of domestic pets being killed. Have friends, that live in residential areas, take pictures of coyotes in their yards, on fences and their security cameras have caught them in yards and streets during the night.
That’s because we’re moving in on their territory.
Yes!
They will breed with household dogs and they will breed with wolves, I’m not saying people don’t breed wolves to coyotes, I’m just saying they will breed in the wild also
I always thought wolves tended to stick to higher country than coyotes prefer.
We actually have both here, coyotes and wolves. Mountain lions, bears, bobcats and badgers
According to San Diego County’s local info channel the sound you hear is not the coyotes killing. They stalk and kill in dead silence. The sound is them making their territory known to other packs. I watched a fascinating information session by local wildlife experts on a local channel sharing this information years ago. It was so important to me because people were always saying that it was the noise of the feeding frenzy of the pack. It isn’t.
I buried my best friends two chihuahuas that were stalked and killed/eaten in their own yard. We couldn’t decide whether it was an owl or a coyote but one dog was intact with a bite to the underneath part of her neck. She was killed first but humans intervened. The second dog was missing his body from midsection to his tail. Completely gone like he had been severed in half. The only sign my friend heard was the dogs barking but not unusually so. My friend said the barks were a bit distressing but not incessant. She heard one small yelp and she ran outside to check on her dogs. That was when she saw the first dog down. She rushed it to the vet. The other dog unfortunately was left to fend for himself which resulted in his death. Horrible choices were made by my friend and I was just there to bury the dead.
That’s so sad about the dogs. My only experience with coyotes and dogs is that they usually lure a male out. We did have lots of owls and bald eagles on our ranch and birds of prey usually pluck them alive off the ground and carry them away to kill from my experience. Owls will puke up bone bundles after eating whatever. Pretty gross, but we had a nest in the large tree in our yard and found their `gifts’ quite frequently.
“Owl Pellets” those are worthwhile to some organizations. I know of people who go through old barns around here to collect them to sell.
WHY? They’re disgusting!
Junior High School life science classes, the bones are pretty clean. I know, they are disgusting but, kind of fascinating as well.
Wow! Maybe once Manson goes to jail people can mail her some.
You just won the Internet comment award for today 😂😂😂
I agree! Cheers 🥂Shed!
So this may be a very dumb question but I’m going to ask anyway. With her shooting horses and leaving the area that she does it in in this condition, wouldn’t it be a bio hazard? Nine times out ten, if not more, a vet has not diagnosed the horse or cow at this point, so that in itself would make it a bio hazard wouldn’t it?
I’m really not sure. I’m not even sure if that’s a regular thing or why she went back to her old kill spot last week.
It’s more of a concern with the creek about 200 feet below the tarps shown in the pic. While the blood and fluids won’t flow down that far in dry weather, the wet weather pushes all that crud into the creek, so it’s certainly a concern for the San Diego Coastkeeper. Not to mention the fact that there’s agricultural sites local and downstream of HiCaliber. Luckily there’s nothing that seems to connect the creek to agricultural watering, but it could still contaminate a watershed somewhere.
I can’t imagine the things you see, that sit on your desk as you prepare these posts, trying to figure out what to include and what to hold back. I can’t look at the tripping videos, or even the bloody pic without being horrified and having nightmares about what these horses go through. Thank you for all you’re doing, the time, energy, and mental toll taken has got to be exhausting.
Tripping videos are hard to watch and it just fills me with anger and makes me want to hurt those people doing it. I would love to get revenge on them but don’t want to spend the rest of my life in prison for it. There has to be a way to bust them legally.
You just gotta keep reporting and reporting and eventually things end up on the right desk. Tripping is barbaric but the fact that HiCaliber protects these people is even worse.
To who? And how do they catch them doing it?
They advertise when they’re doing it. You just gotta do the research.
San Bernardino’s DA has a soft spot in his heart after seeing some videos of animal cruelty in his County. San Bernardino actually has an “Animal Cruelty Task Force” set up there for prosecution of cruelty to animals. Since horse tripping in illegal in California, I would probably try to get evidence first before I called, but there is a tip line available. All Counties need this!
http://www.sbcountyda.org/ProsecutingCriminals/AnimalCrueltyTaskForce.aspx
Salvador is in Riverside county right? So…..
But the auction to whch he was bringing the horses is in San Bernardino County.
I thought you or me or Shed was talking about catching him in the act of actually tripping horses. Which would take place in Riverside county.
If they get caught bringing injured horses into the San Bernardino auction, and catches the case there, they would have authority to follow up even in Riverside County because he caught the case in their County.
How will we know that now that she doesn’t go live at auction? I just really want these guys to get busted in the worst way.
You forget Stealth Mole! Although I didn’t feel up to writing the post while Shed was sick, and we have not yet covered it–that entire event had photographs and was covered. It wasn’t a car accident at all. I am sort of sad that the videos of Nacho running out of there were only photographed, and not videotaped. At some point we may cover it.
That should be the next post. Stealth mole is real and has been busy.
If only we could have seen Nacho running…LOL!
I know. I was so bummed about that! LOL
I will settle for the pictures to amuse me for the day. But still….that would have been priceless.
I have the pictures of the parking lot antics. I’ll get to them soon. I just posted twice in a week though so it’s gonna take a bit. It also depends on what sort of fuckery goes down over on FB. I’m tired of doing the heavy lifting.
Thank you, shame on you D for putting out a teaser like that and then saying I don’t know if we’ll ever get to that. 😉
And thank you Stealth Mole for bringing the reality of the situations to light so we can really see how much of a crazy pants M is.
Sorry, you actually said at some point we may get to it.
I am really Kidding around with you D, I appreciate so much the effort it takes to compile all of the antics and put them out there so that they become logical to those trying to understand
Thank Shed, I am just a helper! No offense is ever, or will be, taken. I’m never sure where my replies are going to end up despite the fact that I press reply to specific comments .
And of course, Shed you are truly appreciated. Thank you so much for everything
Perris, Ca. You can google his exact address.
Lord Kuntilla is loaded (AKA drunk) standing next to a massively sedated Kenny who ripped his leg open on the trailer somehow. I wonder how well this medical experiment will go down. I pray the stapler is lost or broken, after the fucked job she did to the head wound horse.
How did he rip his leg open on a trailer? He’s been there a few weeks already. Was he going somewhere?
All she said was she was getting him ready for an update video. This chick is wacked out of her head. Pretty nasty looking cut to.
They routinely tie to the unhitched horse trailer. The underside of the trailer fenders can cut a leg. If a horse moves a leg suddenly under there.
I don’t know which is more unsafe? Tying horses to unhitched horse trailers or tying horses to a hitching post directly in front of dozens of nylon halters hanging there. Both?
Was M drunk or drugged? Both?
Yikes! I’d never tie a horse to an unhitched trailer. Those halters are an accident waiting to happen.
Whether she was high or not, just remember she likes to play games for attention. I wouldn’t put it past her for one second that she acted like that intentionally to get the internet buzzing.
What better way to get her village or “haters” to share and get the algorithm up. It’s all about boosting the algorithm so she can scam more money. Hopefully it was an act and the horse will be ok. If not an act, lord help that poor horse.
Nope she was definitely drunk. If you listen to her speech, watch her eyes/body movements, look how red her face is it is all there.
Good point.
You have to remember that for those of us that have been around her know that she doesn’t drink much. She has her opioids, but isn’t a big drinker. And besides her opioids the only other thing she loves more is drama. This could have very well been a play for the camera. She does it all the time before the person recording starts recording. She plans it out and laughs about it.
By the way the video was swaying, the videographer was probably 3 sheets to the wind also.
seen this on the post of the mare in the trailer who died.
It’s the haters fault, of course. and according to this comment this Villager thinks the haters are buying these dying horses and setting up hicaliber to take the fall. I swear just when I think i’ve seen it all.
Jo-Ellen Scalone This is disgusting! Obviously, the poor horse is dying! Put the poor thing out of its misery already! I am starting to think that the haters are planting these sick beyond repair horses on HiCaliber so they have more crap to lie about! I hope she is already resting in peace in heaven by now! Hurts to see animals mistreated like this and made to suffer for the stupidity of ugly hearted humans!😥
We don’t call them village idiots for nothing…
Ol’ Wrong Lead Ride A Lame Horse Amanda just did another test ride. According to Manson Queen Of Rope Halter Riding and 30% Lameness expert, points out that the horse just steps out funny on the right hind. They have to keep riding him so they can show it to their Vet. Manson thinks he just might need muscle. WTF if his ground work is bad them fix your shitty footing in your round pen and start there. Oh yeah and riding them upside down doesn’t help evaluate movement either, or present a very picture. HiKill owes these horses better.
They make my head explode🤯
I just discovered her FB Business page. Complete with a video ad for her services that includes several pictures of her on bucking horses, a video of her plopping around on poor Barrett, some barf worthy videos of her tiny tot lessons, and ads for her 5 session horsemanship series that includes an entire lesson on how to mount from a mounting block.
I saw it too! My personal favorite is her hype video to advertise the business showing her in what appears to be a 4H show and her quiz team. Not a single legit credential or picture I would use as an advertisement. She is completely delusional.
Oh but Shed, she was a national competitor and a judge!
Of WHAT?????
National Championship of Stupid Bitches
Lol!
LOL
Where did Amanda go to college?
I really think Amanduh doesn’t know her leads. Like, at all. Almost every video she spends part of all of the time on the wrong one and don’t get me started on the puppy paws, tootched ass and crotch riding too. WTF?
All information seems to have disappeared from her business FB page.
I can still see it all
How odd. It’s back now. When I tried yesterday there was absolutely nothing there. Maybe it was my computer…
That drunken video says it all. She has gone completely round the bend. Horse is an asshole for injuring himself. Wow….just fuckin wow……i had better not say what I want to say…..ps. Involves vomit and and aspiration….fill in the blanks.
Why would they use a horse for beginner kid lessons that was adopted and returned with a Vet report stating the horse is grade 2.5 neurological?
Are they asking for a huge lawsuit or just waiting to have one happen? Are they so stupid to think that this obvious negligence on their part is protected by parents signing a waiver? Strapping kids onto the saddle on that horse? Or any horse?
Yikes! Um no! It doesn’t work like that. Waivers do not cover gross negligence. Don’t believe me; ask Miss Smarty Pants from Homeland Security.
As someone who used to be a certified instructor for therapeutic riding; it makes my eyes pop out of my head and my head hurt.
Idiots!!
In the tiny tot video on Amanda’s business page it also appears the kids are strapped in. Videos are grainy but you can see something thing around one kids waist. They spend quite a bit of time riding with out a side handler, and there are several instances of the horses dropping their heads to eat and pulling the kids down onto the saddle horn.
Come to think of it, that might be a video of the lesson with Trish. And it is actually worse than that photos would let on.
Not only a kid strapped on the neurological horse, but looks like a bicycle helmet. Not sure, but that’s what it looks like in the photos.
Miss Smarty Pants from Homeland Security is busy correcting grammar on FB, writing blogs and pretending she’s above it all. She’s about as subtle as a `Sherman’ tank.
Her little whomever versus whoever lecture? All I could think was What the Fuck Ever… Ingrid your the one who got involved with HiCaliber to the degree that it very well could effect your career and can’t disassociate yourself from the shit show. Your greedy as fuck and it’s going cost you.
She thinks removing herself from the board will absolve her from what’s headed their way yet continues her online antics and thinks nobody notices or knows.
I don’t care how smart or ambitious SHE thinks she is it’s pretty obvious she’s no mensa candidate.
Don’t forget to put Romney standing right next to Michelle. Don’t stop reporting to the AG and IRS. I would share this crap on every horse site far and wide. People tend to police their own and bad news travels quickly. We all have names of people and places not to deal with. No name calling or bashing, just state the facts.
Glad to read she is well versed in basic grammar.
Seems to me to be about the only thing she is well versed in.
So much bullshit pouring out of Michelle’s mouth on the trail ride. It really is amazing that someone can think they’re *so* smart but get it *so* wrong most of the time. It’s very frustrating to think of all the beginner horse people (or potential horse people) who are being so misinformed.
Also, those horses were FILTHY. They should be embarrassed. I hope they at least groom where the saddle goes and pick their hooves out before AND after the trail ride.
Do you really think they would take the time to do that? Hardly.
It doesn’t take THAT long to at least make sure where the saddle and girth are going is free of mud clumps, burrs, or any other irritant that could make that ride go south in a hurry. And by that I mean using the curry, don’t just glance there!
We’ve seen their trail ride videos before. They certainly don’t get groomed after, so why would you think they get groomed before? They always look like mustangs and not in a good way.
It cracked me up that Manson’s new best ride, never once cocked an ear to her when she was talking about the scenery and to the horse about calling to her friends.
Does that mean that the horse was too out of it to react?
Manson’s new best ride is too think to be hauling anybody around.
Can you imagine the bacteria and other infectious microbes living in the environment/facility there? Strangles, Pigeon Fever… who knows what else? A cesspool of Disease.
Oh that plus the recent case of EHV-1 confirmed at Los Alamitos race track. Yikes! Hope none of those horses from there end up at Ontario Auction. Yikes
The filth and disease on their property is honestly one of my worst nightmares as a horse owner. I’ve dealt with strangles ONCE and I never want to deal with it again.
I was nervous about my car mats, my shoes, my clothes, my hands, my fingernails (as chewed off as they were – and I also wore rubber gloves with the sick guy), my hair if I got anything in it while cleaning out my horse’s abscesses…
I knocked on doors and called any empty horse property I could find to rent so I could get my 3 healthy horses out before the strangles spread throughout the entire barn. Then when I found those 3 a private quarantine area I took temperatures EVERY day on EVERY horse and took notes about EVERYTHING I noticed. I bought new thermometers for each horse. I did all this with a full-time job and going between two barns over an hour apart from each other, showering and changing between, and even buying new clothes and muck boots specifically for the strangles barn which I threw away as soon as I could. I was ridiculous about it but I was ridiculous because it MATTERED. I was so angry at the barn where I was originally because they were going to take horses to an auction. I called the state vet to report them. They didn’t go to that auction. Thank God.
That experience was so expensive on sooooo many levels and it was emotionally draining like I can’t explain. I’d honestly be afraid to step onto HiCaliber’s property without a disposable hazmat suit.
I’m going thru a strangles outbreak right now at the barn where I board my two horses. I was lied to and told it was NOT strangles, so when my gelding got a snotty nose I treated him with antibiotics. Then he got bastard strangles. My old mare was fine. My boy will be okay thank God but it’s taken a lot to get him there. Meanwhile they’ve lost a horse at the barn, and there are three with active abscesses. It’s a mess…and it all happened because someone brought in two horses from a sale and didn’t quarantine them.
Ugh, I’m so sorry for you. I’m glad your horses are going to be ok. It’s such a draining process mentally, physically and financially. I really wish boarding facilities would be more upfront and honest about it when it happens. It’s not a very easy secret to keep. Especially if you have horses coming and going constantly and your biosecurity measures are virtually nonexistent. I can’t tell you how many times I had to tell different feeders not to use the same grain scoop as the healthy horses to put grain into my sick horse’s bucket. 🤦🏻♀️ Not only did they have to walk into his stall where shavings were contaminated with pus but they touched the scoop to the bucket and then back into the grain bins. And don’t get me started on putting the hose through the stall slats to refill water buckets. That pus flies EVERYWHERE when they shake their heads. Sorry for that visual.
Yikes! I sure hope your horses are better soon!
I would be furious!!! Was it the BO that denied it was Strangles to start with? I think he should be stuck with some of those vet bills!
Watched a few minutes of the trail ride. Come on up, we need riders, we have free lessons! Really? Better tell Amanduh that. I’m glad they are trying to find homes for the horses but that’s a very low chance of success way to do it.
Why does ANYBODY feel the need to point this out???
There is a pic to go with this.
“HiCaliber Horse Rescue
7 hrs ·
Welcome home Ramon! It looks like you were hoping to show up with a bang at Pet Matchmaker Rescue CA.
That BB(&P)C is far more optimistic than it needs to be at this point…you’re gelded homie.
Looks like you’ve got a rock solid start to your new life! Make yourself comfortable and pitch that tent!
I hope you got a full salute upon your arrival!
It wasn’t long ago that they drove a stiff bargain at auction. We are so glad we blew the throbbing whistle on your bid and woke up to your morning glory the next day.
Make sure you behave up there. Wear your hard on hat and don’t be a purple home wrecker.
Watch out for any one eyed trouser snakes hiding in the bushes! It’s a strange new world there in the hard woods.
So long duck dong, friend. I’ve got to jump on the pocket rocket and get back to work. I’m cooking a raging salmon on the grill tonight with a side of baby gravy. After dinner we are having custard slingers for dessert. “
That’s trashy… Kinda like the crap you find written on ballroom walls. I honestly can’t tell if the horse is coming or going. Is this saying Ramon was gelded recently and now he’s going to another rescue?
Ramone is gelded and gone to Pet Matchmaker who is that dog rescue that crazy lady has. She got that family of 3 goats a few weeks ago and they all died within a week. She also has dun QH mare from the OTTB20 mess and six months after foaling she’s still a skeleton. Her dogs look good though.
Is that the chick on Lake Wohlford? Nice judgement call Manson.
Not Drinking that Cool-Aide, I think you meant bathroom walls? Otherwise that would be a pretty gross ballroom 😉
Lol! I’ll blame autocorrect. Yes, bathroom. ☺
Hope he survives there at Petmatchmaker. Triple yikes given
Maybe they were hoping for some traffic like they were able to get with that vajayjay post?
Ugh!!!
I saw it. Ramone looks like shit and the entire post is disgusting and pointless. How about some updates on horses or something productive?
According to M on her latest trail ride live feed, they are giving FREE lessons. Wonder if Amanduh knws??!!
On same feed, they are talking about a horse it sounds like has Bell’s Palsy? Can be treated with wonderful results using acupuncture.
She’s trying to cover her A$$ with the free lesson lie. She’s been caught once again not being a 501(c)3. Does she not see what is posted about the lesson program $75/ hr? w/ Amanda who supposedly kicks back 10% to HC? That is against 501(c)3 rules. I’m sure their insurance does not cover a lesson program especially a lesson program that uses horses deemed not useable for a lesson program and unsafe by a licensed veterinarian.
That is pretty funny, actually, that they suddenly announced that last night, isn’t it, Shed? LMAO!
We’ve been stating it for months, and exactly how and why it was illegal for Amanda to be profiting off of charitable assets, and sent that information in when asked who exactly was profiting off of the rescue. Methinks it may be a case of too little, too late, and if Amanda should be “taking over” the rescue, it merely places an even larger target on her back.
The timing of that announcement was golden 😉
I caught that too. Not only are lessons definitely not free, they are quite expensive, especially considering the instructor and what you actually do in the lessons. Is she even first aid trained and CPR certified?
Free lessons?? Yet the volunteers have to pay to take a class before they can handle the horses?!?!
Volunteers do not have to pay to take the horse handling class. They do have to pay for riding lessons. Michelle also used to have veterinary classes of some sort. This was discussed on the blog ages ago, she may not do them anymore. Thank God.
I saw in a comment somewhere that A former volunteer said that they had to take a class before they could have contact with the horses and that they had to pay for it, maybe it’s different now?
I know there are several former volunteers on this board so they would know better than I.
If either she or Amanduh are the ones giveing the free lessons, they are still overpriced.
Lol! True! 🤣
Oops! My spelling. I shouldn’t type and talk on the phone. Soz
I would charge Amanda $75 for the privilege of giving me a “lesson.”
You work cheap! LOL
Haha! I had that thought. It is a considerble discount 🙂
My new gravatar is Charles Ponzi with a goat. Hicaliber appears to be running their version, which I call the Pone-zi Scheme because it involves ponies and horses, as well as cows and goats. Nobody makes a profit except them. How lucky to find a photo of Charles with a goat!
LOL
I will never understand how compassionate, animal loving people can support such a terrible way to regularly euthanize an animal. It’s one thing if the animal is on the ground already dying or has a horrific injury. But to march them to the tarp and put one in the dome…
And for a person to do this on a regular basis…she is sick in the head and I really hope that this place gets erased before more are destroyed by that vile monster.
(Seeing the tarp and blood really made me feel sick)
She does it at least twice a week, every week it seems.
I heard from a reliable source that Michelle needs to get numbers down ASAP, so even if you’re a hater if there is a HiCaliber horse you’ve been wanting to save now may be the time.
The negative publicity from horses arriving in horrible shape after months at HiCaliber hasn’t seemed to affect the village so Michelle may be open to getting more out of there. She may not want to waste her precious funds on carcass removal for 50+ horses.
It goes without saying you would need a proper quarantine area…
There are other rescues that would be willing to take horses. She would be smart to let that happen.
So I found this post on Facebook just now… I guess he’s been traveling miles in the U.S. living a nomadic life and someone stole his mule in Escondido while he slept.
Manson and Romney both are trying to drum up some happy feel good by saying how if she’s at auction tomorrow they’ll get her for him. Ugh!!!
I feel terrible for the guy. He’s pal’d around the country with his girl and she’s gone. I hope she’s found safe but if your in Escondido keep an eye out.
https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1638091992949936&id=388535314572283
The mule was found. 1 guy arrested for grand theft.
Great news!
I was happy for him. 😃
Did you guys happen to see the thing on the news where a man got a DUI for riding his poor horse on the freeway drunk at night. What a asshole he deserves it!
A busy Orange County freeway!!! Crazy!
That is so wonderful she was found – great news!
So apparently there has been another R2R transfer, and I for one can honestly say that after a few months with HiKill both horses are worse than when they came in. HiCaliberCourney and HiCaliberPromise. So glad they made it out and are finally getting the care that they so desperately need.
Also under the raunchy post about a horse going to Pet Matchmaker, a villager asked if HiKill had any donkeys. HiKill stated that they had one but it was adoption pending. Whatever happened to HiCaliberSutherland? Last I heard back in January he was getting gelded. Did he take a blue tarp nap?
No, he got adopted from what I heard.
Sutherland got adopted. Violet is still there.
“Maureen Keo is asking for donations to Ranch Dog Rescue.
18 hrs
I took two rescue to rescue transfers from HiCaliber Horse Rescue this evening. I’m horrified by the condition in which they arrived here.
The first mare is 26+ years old, and arrived with a major abscess in her shoulder and another in her back left leg. Thanks toKathy Householdery,Michele Townley Suarez and Alex for your help with triaging this mare and cleaning out her wounds. Ethel (as she has been named,) has a dose of pain medication and some senior grain on board, in addition to a full dinner, blanket and lots of love. **The vet has been called and will be out first thing tomorrow.**
The second mare is said to be 2-4 years old (we will confirm with the vet tomorrow) and looks wormy, has awful coat condition, dozens of bite marks on her hind end and is skittish. We have named this cute strawberry colored mare, Lucille( Lucy for short). She as well is tucked in with dinner, a blanket, and lots of love.
Tomorrow’s vet bill will just be the tip of the iceberg. If you feel inclined to donate to our 501c3 rescue, all of your donations are tax deductible and we would be forever grateful. Our PayPal address is maureen@ranchdogrescue.org. If you would rather donate items rather than cash, we need the following:
-unstabilized rice bran pellets
– bag of Triple Crown Complete
– bag of Manna Senior Equine Weight Gain powder
– fly masks
– shavings
Thank you as always for your support “
I’m glad they have these two lucky horses and appreciate they both are getting proper care now. Anyone know what is being used to wash the infected area?
The concern is the unknown infectious fluid is not going onto the mats or concrete, where it can be disinfected with bleach or more expensive anti microbial wash, rather directly into the soil.
The bacteria that causes Pigeon Fever can live in soil for months, for example.
Oh man. I just got back from a 10 day family vacation and there was A LOT of BS that happened during that time. Manson has gone off the rails! Didn’t take long to find new material to send off the the agent currently investigating them though, so I guess that is one bright side.
In Tara’s latest video (2/26) she said she was contacted about two horses that were microchipped to her vet… That went to hchr over six months ago… And the horses were emaciated… Are these the two that Ranch Dog has now?
I think one of RanchDog’s horses came in December 2017, so no.
No, the ones that Ranch Dog have were from SoCal.
Did anyone else see the comment on the ranting video of ‘you should get a reality show’ or something like that? Uh no, you should be locked up never to scam people or hurt animals ever again.
I can’t hardly listen to her anymore. So many lies.
Somebody grandstanded. Shades of Stardust? Vet will be there tomorrow but she’ll just take care of the abcess herself? History repeating itself? Scares the hell out of me. What did she expect from HiKill, a show horse?
I wouldn’t be surprised if all of the negative attention results in M not allowing any more horses to go out to rescues other than the ones who work with her and agree not to say anything about their condition. I’m glad the horse escaped her and is getting the care she needs and deserves, but the publicity may have repercussions on getting future horses out. On the other hand, body removal is a costly business and with donations down, wholescale shooting may prove too costly for her to shoot as many horses as she’d like in order to stop them from going to anyone who may publicize their lack of care publicly. I’m going to hope for that.
Well she can always send them to One Last Good Home with one of her kill buyer buddies. Not like they show more than same few horses for adoption updates.
That is what amazes me–the VI’s are so thrilled with the adoption ads, which show less than 1/8 of the total horses on the ranch and then horses are left to languish, sort of like that poor girl . I am thrilled that she made it out, nor should she have been in the condition she was in–but how many others are left at the ranch looking just like her?
They forget them every Tuesday as they get ready to go into crisis over a new batch.
It seems that the V’s don’t seem to concerned about the condition of those horses
The Village Idiots are invested in the drama of Manson’s life and the animals are props. When this all folds, they will move onto the next thing that will keep them entertained. No, they don’t know or care much about horses for the most part.
When I do actually watch their videos (more often I listen to the audio while doing something else), it always stands out to me how many of the comments are people saying they don’t know about horses, or are on the other side of the country, or in a different country, etc. I know a lot of people in the So Cal horse community, and I know NONE who are still supportive of HiCaliber.
So hey – what’s going on?
Noticed a new blog!
https://inewsource.org/2018/02/28/hicaliber-horse-allegations-animal-cruelty-fraud/
I admit that he did a better job than I would have expected, and it isn’t much of a feel good piece. I will eat crow on that one and I will give them credit for that. Bet the CVMB loved having that outed, at least since they told me that it needed to be confidential before they began contacting other people.
I just have to keep reminding myself that today is a beautiful day. 😀
Hopefully this is enough `glory’ for the personalities involved for now.
The above link is the ‘news reporter interview’ that interrupted her auction.
It’s not a bad read but I wish he’d taken the time to educate himself on slaughter and the legalities and numbers involved. Also, why does nobody question her what the difference between `compassion pulls’ and the others she kills? IMO the ONLY horses that should be euthanized are compassion pulls so if only 28 were that, that means the rest were viable?
Good Point
Thanks for the link. Very good read. The reporter did a good job, I thought.
Excellent piece. As a non-biased reporter he presented all sides.
I love all the passion and comments about bringing HC down and people in jail.
However, putting any of them in jail is not so easy. Irrefutable (beyond a reasonable doubt) proof has to be presented and that will not be so easy to get.
Yes, the horses are mistreated, neglected and abused. They have an ongoing health and safety issue with fencing, biosecurity and waste disposal. But to prove they are misusing donations is not going to be easy or simple to prove fraud. A forensic CPA will have to be brought in to dissect (pun intended) their books and records.
While completely reprehensible to me, and a great many people, M is completely right, in California she can legally shoot every horse that the rescue owns as long as she isn’t killing them for consumption. She can cut them up and dissect them as well. She can sell parts to schools and medical researchers if they are willing to buy them.
Although California law states horses cannot be shipped for slaughter from CA, HC purchases directly from Bubba Misner who does ship horses to his partner (name ?) in another state (?) who does ship to Mexico. So, damn it all, M is technically keeping those horses from the slaughter pipeline. Until such time as she sells or adopts a horse to a known KB and that horse ends up shipped………
I hate to rain on everyone’s parade, but clear heads are a must at this point. Not threats or lynch mobs. We have to let the legal system work and we need to keep pressure on Government entities for the system not to stall out and go cold.
HC records will come back to haunt them.
Now back to your regularly scheduled program.
You are correct. None of what is being discussed in those news reports will be what brings her down. It’s just sensationalism. We’ve always know this. It’s a big part of why I had no interest in engaging the media. I doubt much will come of it. The drama llamas will fight it out on the media FB pages for a few days like they like to do. HiCal will play the sympathy card and make some money off this so Manson can get her lashes done up next week and make that car payment and, hey, they rent is also do. Meanwhile what goes on behind the scenes continues moving forward. It’s not sexy, it’s not headline grabbing but it is effective. What I do disagree with is Manson keeping anything from the pipeline. The majority of the horses Misner is letting her have wouldn’t be worth his money to haul to NM to his buddy who ships to slaughter. I was told he has somebody in AZ that cleans up his paperwork so those horses don’t show as from Cali or something.
You are correct. Those horses would not be shippable because of $$$.
Thank you for the correction.
