I needed a place to keep 3 mares, one with a small foal for a couple months, by Dec. 14th 2006 the mare & small foall had died of starvation

I placed 3 mares, one with a small foal in the care of Diana Beccerra & Ed Testo in mid Nov. buy the 14th of Dec. 2006 the mare with the baby had died of starvation. The agreement was that they were to get the ownership of a 4th mare in exchange for the care of the 3 mares & the baby for 2 to 3 months. I also put approx. 400#s of grain & at least 1 1/2 tons of alfalfa hay as well as had given the cash money to help towards some local grass hay. Not once did they call me & say they needed more feed & never did they call me & let me know my horses were in critical condition.

On Dec. 14th my mother stopped by & after that, I got a call that I had a mare down. I went there within 45 minutes as I was that far away, with in 20 minutes of seeing my mare down, I had called 4 Vets & was waiting for call backs. My mare died before any of the 4 could respond. I was then treatened by Ed Testo & his sister to remove my remaining mares or they would turn them out on the road. They are located close to where Brookdale/128th & 159th come together just west of 160th & Canyon RDs. Not a safe place to have hungry horses on the roadway.

So I waited there until I could get a friend to come with his trailer & pick up my 2 mares. Because I had given them the 4th mare, I was not allowed too take her. I fear for this mare & the rest of the animals in their care.
