Target: Jennifer L. Buckley, Acting District Attorney of Saratoga County, New York
Goal: Seek vigorous prosecution and maximum penalties for the individuals who reportedly kept 37 animals in ammonia-choked squalor that led to the home’s condemnation.
Authorities reportedly uncovered a scene of extreme neglect: eight dogs, four cats, two chickens, one duck, one rooster, and a rabbit inside a residence, alongside 14 chickens, three ducks, two turkeys, and a pig outside. Investigators said high ammonia levels prompted a Hazmat response, and the building inspector condemned the home after the animals were removed. Two residents were arrested on dozens of misdemeanor counts connected to allegedly failing to provide proper food, water, and sanitary living conditions.
Reports indicate this case began with loose-dog complaints and escalated into a broader welfare probe. Inside, animals were reportedly confined amid overwhelming filth; outside, more animals were allegedly left without adequate sustenance. The surviving animals were seized under court order and transferred to safe environments for veterinary evaluation and care.
Swift, decisive action is necessary to deter future abuse and protect vulnerable animals. Sign below to demand prosecutors upon conviction seek the strongest lawful penalties, including jail where appropriate, substantial fines, a lifetime prohibition on animal ownership, restitution for veterinary and shelter costs, mandatory counseling, and community service that does not place defendants near animals. The reported severity of this case calls for accountability that matches the suffering described.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Acting District Attorney Buckley,
The reported discovery of 37 animals living in ammonia-heavy squalor—so severe that a Hazmat team responded and the home was condemned—demands an unflinching prosecutorial response. Accounts describe multiple species confined in filth inside and additional animals outside without adequate sustenance. Two residents were arrested on numerous counts tied to allegedly failing to provide proper care.
We respectfully urge your office to prioritize this case and, if the evidence supports it, pursue all applicable charges and enhancements. The conditions reportedly documented—extreme odors, unsafe sanitation, and widespread deprivation—reflect prolonged suffering and a serious threat to public health and animal welfare alike.
Upon conviction, we ask that you seek meaningful consequences: maximum penalties, a lifetime ban on animal ownership, restitution for veterinary and shelter expenses, mandatory counseling, and community service that does not involve animals. A strong outcome will help ensure that such cruelty is not minimized and will send a clear message that this community will not tolerate the mistreatment of animals.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

37 animals suffered unspeakably and how many died? Justice will never match the suffering all these little angels endured!!!!!
“The reported severity of this case calls for accountability that matches the suffering described.” SO DO IT JUDICIAL SYSTEM AND PROHIBIT ANY ANIMALS FOR LIFE FOR EVERY ABUSER INVOLVED. ALL THOSE THAT WERE NEGLIGENT AS WELL!!!
They should all suffer or other animals will be victimized.
ACCOUNTABILITY MUST BE IMPOSED!! DEVILS BELONG IN HELL!!!!
I know a good idea here. When the two ‘residents’ ( you have to be polite you see) otherwise the BASTARDS could sue you for their hurt feelings when they are let out on bond or fucking ‘plea’ bargains etc.— is to locate
and ‘mob-beat’ the tossers to an inch of their lives so they get some idea of what they have done and has been answered.
Only way to go for any animal torturing and murdering sods the world over. May seem extreme but is the only way this shit will stop!!

JUST PLAIN DISTURBING AND DISGUSTING 🫣
ANIMALS LIVE FAR FAR CLEANER THAN THESE INDIVIDUALS DO!!!
I agree 100% with Kim P. and John White here. Rockbottom these bastards so that they will NEVER forget the true meaning of a just mercy. Absolutely no sympathy for such henious morons who do not care one bit about the senseless, unnecessary and horrendous suffering they have subjected these poor animals to. THESE HEARTLESS JERKS NEED TO BE TAUGHT AN UNFORGETTABLE LESSON ON REPENTANCE AND WHY A GOOD, SOLID, LENGTHILY DRAWN-OUT KICK UP THEIR ARSES IS MIGHTY GOOD FOR THEIR SOULS AND FOR THE WELLBEING TOO, OF THE ANIMALS THAT THESE JERKS TRAGICALLY HAD NO LOVE FOR.
These stinking slime bags should just be torched with a flame thrower, I know they say that shit doesn’t burn but it might if you use an accelerant, like BBQ lighting fluid or a petrol bomb. New York again, it is about time they got rid of this pathetic Mayor, this State has become like third world country since this useless turd got into the office. Time for a big change NY.
