From what I understand, its not tax fraud.

No - they stole money from people. They would have horses up for adoption, accept an adoption fee and then the horse was no longer available - and the person never got their money back. They would have people come to pick up a particular horse that they paid for and the horse would be missing - they didn't know where the horse was. There was a LOT of shady things going on and a LOT of horses adopted out that were not in good condition. I know reputable rescues that rehab the horses fully before they then move onto their forever homes. This lady needs to be investigated and charged if there is evidence (and I'm sure there will be).

If true, they ought to be lassoed(sp?) and dragged through the streets cowboy-movie style.

I know numerous people who have been duped by her. She's no Christian. I've seen the horses in her care. It's disgusting.
