One of the pseudo-sanctuary's "directors" was recently hospitalized due to a serious health condition and is currently in the ICU of a local medical facility. I was able to confirm this information today (Wednesday) by contacting the hospital's patient information line.
Meanwhile, the facility closed its doors to the public and it is uncertain when tours will resume at the touring facility. It was also reported on the Internet that the facility recently suffered a "fire disaster." This story has not been confirmed yet and it is unknown if anyone or any animal was hurt or killed in this "fire disaster." In light of all the allegations and problems plaguing this facility-- including winter chills projected to arrive this weekend--prayers are needed to protect the surviving animals at the pseudo-sanctuary. More details to follow...
Update: As of this morning (Friday), the hospital's patient information operator indicated the "director" was moved out of the ICU and into a shared hospital room. I was able to confirm the director underwent major heart surgery and will not be able to return to work until possibly next year. Something tells me the director will continue to receive paychecks from the sanctuary (maybe even double checks!) just so he can pay for the expensive heart surgery and hospital stay. I'm sure the OAG will audit the pseudo-sanctuary's pay records to confirm whether or not the male director received paychecks for work not performed!
[Later: Learned there was a small fire started at the rear of the touring property due to welding sparks! Fortunately, as far as I know, there was no loss of life. What is really scary is there were no fire extinguishers on site, not that it would have done much good if the fire grew out of control near the animal cages.]
[Much Later: Learned the male "director" was in the hospital for 30 days and on convalescent leave for 90 days. I also learned he never missed a paycheck during that time--apparently receiving double his usual weekly salary. More thievery?]
