Target: Shasta County Sheriff and Shasta District Fair Officials
Goal: Hold accountable those responsible for the seizure and slaughter of a beloved pet goat, Cedar.
The distressing case of a young girl in Northern California, whose cherished pet goat Cedar was seized by sheriff’s deputies and taken to slaughter, has drawn national attention. According to reports, the girl faced threats of criminal charges from fair representatives, claiming ownership of Cedar even after the girl had saved him from the auction block. The subsequent seizure and tragic outcome, wherein Cedar was reportedly slaughtered despite the girl’s attempts to protect him, emphasize the potential for grave injustices within animal custody disputes and the enforcement of purported laws.
As detailed in the lawsuit, Cedar was more than just property; he was a family member cherished by the young girl who cared for him daily. With Cedar auctioned off and his meat sold, the emotional and physical toll on the girl and her family has been profound. The legal battle that ensued highlighted numerous alleged missteps by both law enforcement and fair officials, raising concerns about how animals are treated under the law and the inherent value of pet companionship in society.
The incident underscores the urgent necessity for an investigation into the actions of Shasta County and its sheriff’s department, among others. The demand is clear: those responsible for this heartbreaking event should face appropriate penalties and reforms should be implemented to ensure such a mismanagement of animal custody does not happen again. Accountability is critical, and this case serves as a pivotal moment for reform in animal welfare legislation and practices.
PETITION LETTER:
To the Shasta County Sheriff and Shasta District Fair Officials,
The heartbreaking seizure and subsequent slaughter of Cedar, a beloved pet goat belonging to a young girl, raises severe questions about the treatment of animals in legal custody. Reports suggest that Cedar was forcibly taken from the girl after she decided against selling him at an auction, despite her clear affection and commitment to him as a family member. The threats allegedly made by fair officials that the girl would face charges of grand theft if she did not relinquish Cedar only compound this distressing situation.
This unacceptable series of events culminated in Cedar being sold for meat, stripping away the girl’s right to protect her pet and leading to irreversible emotional harm. Cedar’s tragic fate as he was auctioned off for meat seems to reflect a concerning disregard for obligations owed to animals, who, according to the lawsuit, are recognized as family by their owners. It is imperative that those responsible for this incident are held accountable to prevent such injustice in the future.
We call for an investigation and appropriate punishment for the individuals involved in this case, as well as comprehensive reforms to ensure the dignity and rights of animals are respected. It is vital that robust systems are in place to prioritize animal welfare over bureaucratic mishandlings.
Sincerely,
Your Name Here

What a bunch of bullshit! Everyone and anyone having anything to do with this evil crap should, at the very least, be fire and all benefits lost. This includes the dumbasses at the sheriff’s office and at the district fair department. Has anyone else noticed that names are not being published as to headed this evilness up at the district fair? I just tried calling them but it went to voice mail. Names and addresses should be published of the ones in charge of this from the fair district and the sheriff’s office. The public has a right to know what psychopaths with overblown egos did this! An innocent goat was killed and an innocent little girl lost her faith in cops because of adults who think they rank up there with God! These evil sons of bitches should be eradicated from this earth for the safety of all living creatures.
Exactly. I can picture these twats when they start their shift.”What’s on today boys’? “Bit of a dangerous job lads- got to go and take a ‘pet goat’ from a little girl who should not really have it so make sure your guns are all working properly as they maybe will be needed! These egotistical pieces of absolute shite should be immediately sacked from their jobs for their total idiocy!
I mean, what stupid sod or sods decided this had got to happen. Were the dozy bastards short of work or what.
One innocent pet goat seized by a load of ‘power-crazy motherfucks with nothing else to do no doubt! Much easier than apprehending drug pushers or muggers etc.
These bastards really need naming and shaming although I doubt that it would bother them too much! If anyone should be eradicated from the world then pieces of shit like these pricks should be put at the head of the line. Total arrogant buggers who need a serious lesson!

This is cruel. No excuse
This wee girl should have been applauded for her heartfelt brave actions in saving this beautiful wee goat from these monsters now they shattered her heart and turned it into nothing but dark and abhorrent disgusting thing to do those stupid deputies and fair people should be hung.
California, I could have guessed! I hope these people are proud of themselves, breaking a little girls heart. It must have made you feel like big brave men or women. Your fair sucks and the people running it are asses, sorry for the insult to the 4 legged kind.Time for some new laws that make sense.
Shasta County is the most radically right wing county in California, honey. Mind your assumptions.
Thank you. Besides, does Paula’s comment mean? That democrats are more likely to kill?
Don’t worry about fucking politics.
Just keep to the job in hand here!
Which is— a load of overgrown bullies forcefully relieving a little girl of her pet goat and leaving her brokenhearted!!
Nasty arrogant sods who need kicking off the ‘so-called’ force or better still singled out and beaten shitless by a fired up Animal Activist group or mob to show these bastards the serious error of their ways!!!!!

TexASS is way worse.

Those individuals responsible should rot in hell!

4H, dissecting animals, bull fights should all be abolished!
4H first I hear of this.
But from the little I know, it sounds like a total no win for anyone …. just the opposite.
You are all ASSHOLES to think this program has anything positive to offer anyone!! You all need to be held accountable!!
How horrible. How wrong. Saving a life is the greatest thing someone can do. Then this. Sickening.
What has happened to society the absolute cavalier attitude towards animals and their precious lives is gone but why the hatred the anger the cruelty the brutality is off the charts! Enough already the good descent people in this world do not accept animal torture period we will find you we will turn you in to the authorities you can run but you cannot hide no more so keep looking over your shoulder we will not stop until all of you are behind bars period!
Please make sure those responsible are fired and punished severely.
Yes – I agree. Somebody should be held responsible for this mess (and I agree with an earlier comment – where are the names of those responsible?
I agree. They should be fired and the incident went thoroughly investigated. I’d bet this had the day with adult infighting that the gist and the little girl had nothing to do with. The world’s gone crazy.
Those responsible for this need to be executed. Seriously this is beyond despicable.
WTF IS WRONG YOU COPS???!!!! WHAT FREAKING HARM DID THAT ANIMAL DO????
WHAT A BUNCH OF ASSOLES YOU ARE!!!!! YOUR FAMILY PETS SHOULD BE DONATED!!!!!!
FUCHING IMBECILES!!!!!
The SHERIFF SHIULD BE SLAUGHTERED!
Why did they seize the goat in the first place? This was the girl’s pet. Are the authorities going to start seizing dogs and cats and slaughtering them too??! This is so wrong and disgusting. Those responsible for this farce, need to be held responsible and things need to change.
Children can’t help which animals whom they fail in love with. ALL ANIMAL CRUELTY AND ABUSE NEEDS TO STOP IMMEDIATELY!!!!
At least, I hope they got sick from eating Cedar’s meat. that’s awful. Sad, unfair.
Why would anyone slaughter this young child’s pet? It doesn’t matter if it’s a cat, dog, goat, pig or cow. The poor animal was a pet. What was the outcome? Another piece of meat for sale? This is shameful and disgusting act.
There is too much of this. And for communist Calif to do this to a child is unforgivable. What purpose did this serve other than to prove Calif is run by controlling sick people starting with Newsome. This child will never forget this. Adults set a tragic sick cruel example of what they are capable of. To slaughter a child’s pet. The family should leave Calif and move here to the south where this would never have happened. I feel so bad for this child and the trusting pet. What I’d like to do to those who did this would be the same they did to the pet.
First: look up the definition of the word Communist.
Second: It was the COPS ( a right-leaning group, who also slaughter thousands of pet dogs a year, look it up) and County Fair officials who were responsible for taking that little girls’ pet and killing the poor thing. Governor Newsome had nothing to do with it. You literally don’t know what you’re talking about.
SO SAD FOR THIS FOR THIS GOAT AND THIS GIRL!! THIS WAS HER PET AND HER FAMILY AND THEY STOLE IT FROM HER AND MURDERED THE POOR INNOCENT HELPLESS GOAT!!!
THERE WAS NO REASON FOR THIS!! JUSTICE FOR THIS POOR LITTLE GIRL AND HER PET GOAT!!!
THESE COPS SHOULD SPEND THEIR TIME GOING AFTER THE MONSTERS WHO ABUSE TORTURE AND KILL INNOCENT ANIMALS!!!!
Those responsible for this outrageous act of cruelty should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and relieved of their duties. This is reprehensible, disgusting and totally unacceptable in a free society.
Ao ler esta triste história só sinto angústia e vontade de chorar. Cada vez odeio mais as pessoas. Sinto uma revolta enorme por este mundo que cada vez está mais cheio de gente que não merece viver!
