The Camp County Sheriff’s Office partnered with the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) and Safe Haven Equine Rescue in Gilmer in seizing more than 150 horses and other equines June 27 in a large-scale case of alleged animal cruelty.
The animals are now being cared for by Safe Haven with help from HSUS at a secure, undisclosed location.
The seizures were carried out on a 45-acre tract of land where Deanna Tierney has run Scarlet’s Legacy Equine Rescue (SLER) on County Road 3324 south of Pittsburg since October 2018.
