PRINEVILLE, OR -- Three people are charged with Animal Neglect, in connection with several horses found severely malnourished at a Crook County farm. Sheriff's deputies investigating an anonymous tip discovered three emaciated horses at the Juniper Acres property. While waiting for a veterinarian, one of the horses died.
Investigators say the horses were not provided water and there was little feed available.
The owners were willingly relinquished the remaining horses to Bend-based Equine Outreach.
Deputies cited 26-year-old Craigen Snell, 26-year-old Juanita Lynn Carnagey and 61-year-old Dawayne Carnagey for Animal Neglect in the first degree.
