Brooksville, Fl.
Involving the alleged illegal slaughter of horses for meat happening in our own backyard. Animal activists tell FOX 13 they want law enforcement to shut down the farm where at least one horse has been butchered.
FOX 13 has been investigating the black market horse meat trade in Florida for months and has obtained exclusive video, centered around a case in Hernando County.
Horse meat cannot be legally sold or purchased in the U.S. without USDA inspection, and congress banned the USDA from inspecting horse meat, which makes it illegal.
