🔎 Where rescue becomes neglect

“Where Rescue Becomes Neglect”

Animal rescue is supposed to mean safety. Care. Compassion.

Dead animals left behind. Living animals fighting to survive. A community stunned by what they discovered.

This episode dives into:
✅ How a rescue operation spiraled into cruelty
✅ The dangers of unchecked rescue organizations
✅ What investigators found when they entered the property
✅ How to spot the warning signs & report animal neglect

Animals can’t speak for themselves but their story deserves to be told.
