All the animals rescued made full recoveries and were placed in forever homes.

"The suffering of these animals was apparent from their bloodied and infected ears, to Sway who was clinging to life," said Nicole Wilson, Director of Humane Law Enforcement. "We are proud to not only bring justice to these innocent souls, but to put them on the path to a bright future where they will never again be victims of such horrific acts."
