For those interested, the current PETA trial in NC
This is all local news for me so I've been aware of the situation since it happened and formerly worked for a veterinarian involved in the case, but I thought I would share the news links with any of you who are interested. These are the local news links (in chronological order) since the official trial started concerning PETA workers euthanizing animals at a local shelter and disposing of them in dumpsters.
And to be fair, I did search the PETA website for their coverage of the trial, but found no mention of it.
(Edit: Sorry about the jumbled links, I think I've fixed it)
