Asha’s Farm Sanctuary owner Tracy Murphy has a big heart for animals. When two cows wandered into her sanctuary, she provided them with a safe haven. Now she’s being charged for caring for the escaped cattle she named Ismael and Little Willow. Tell the district attorney to drop the charges against Tracy for having compassion for all animals, including those who usually are eaten by humans!
As founder and president of Asha’s Farm Sanctuary in upstate New York, Tracy was merely doing her job by rescuing two cows who wandered onto the sanctuary, which is a refuge for abused cattle, pigs, and chickens. She cared for the cows and immediately reported them to the Society for the Prevention and Cruelty to Animals in July 2022.
Tracy, acting on the advice of her attorney at the time, refused to hand over Ismael and Little Willow without proof of ownership. After another week, the police executed a search warrant and arrested Tracy. Sadly, authorities seized Ismael and Little Willow, and returned them to the purported “owner,” probably for slaughter.
Since her arrest, Tracy has faced significant financial and emotional hardships, along with facing one count of grand larceny and up to seven years in prison. Tracy was publicly humiliated when she was forced to wear shackles in court and suffered ostracization, harassment, and threats throughout this case.
Fortunately, the Animal Activist Legal Defense Project at the Sturm College of Law is defending Tracy. With its assistance, a superior court lifted the gag order placed on Tracy and two town justices have recused themselves from this case.
This summer, Tracy will go to trial for her compassionate actions. Her next court hearing is scheduled in the Town of Wheatfield for March 5. Help us urge Niagara County District Attorney Brian Seaman to dismiss the charges against Tracy to free her from the shackles of injustice and ensure the lives of Ismael and Little Willow were not taken in vain.

I wonder why, when nonvegans and antivegans proclaim they “care” about animals, do they then malign, harass, and prosecute vegans who SAVE ANIMALS?
Why was the NEGLECTFUL FARMER whose harmful actions leading to Ismael and Little Willow just wandering away, NOT prosecuted?
Why do I have to write prosecutors almost EACH DAY to prosecute violent crimes against ANIMALS?
I’ll tell you why: because as long as vegans can be characterized as criminals/stupid/cultish/malnourished/blahblahblah/etcetcetc, non/antivegans can, somehow, comfortably ignore us and continue violently abusing and killing animals (yes, even if you personally don’t slaughter the animals you consume, you are still responsible for the violence and harm perpetrated against them). And prosecuting violent crimes against animals is an uncomfortable slippery slope for many nonvegans: if harming a cat is considered animal cruelty, why doesn’t the law consider harming a chicken animal cruelty? Like human animals, they both experience pain, fear, and suffering.
And seriously? Shackles? Was it so terrifying being in the same room with a NONVIOLENT VEGAN who SAVES and RESCUES? Or was it to humiliate her? The mocking of injustice, and the representation of the judicial system with juvenile and bullying theatrics, is embarrassing and cruel. But people would rather immaturely deflect from the violent suffering of the most defenseless and vulnerable beings by ridiculing the humans who reject such injustice because otherwise the nonvegans would have to acknowledge their participation in the unrelenting, incalculable suffering of animals.
You indifferently dismiss the victims because you personally enjoy stealing from their bodies, and then you mock the humans who oppose animal suffering.
The most dangerous humans include those whose indifference towards animal suffering fuels their indifference towards human suffering.
This injustice is disturbing and disgusting and, quite frankly, criminal. You just enjoy a status quo of normalized violence towards animals and normalized, acceptable hatred and intolerance towards vegans.
And do remember: regardless of how humans define the suffering of animals in terms that provides humans comfort causing the suffering of animals (humane, welfare …) animals are required to suffer, their violent, cruel, unwilling deaths are inherent as are their brief existences of required pain, control, and separation of family.
FYI, again:
I’m going to link a couple previous articles here that establish the suffering animals are required to endure in each “phase” of “animal agriculture” as documented via recent exposes and, predominately, industry data from the USDA; I’m sharing them again here due to the fact that “anag” is responsible for the incalculable suffering of TRILLIONS of animals violently killed each year for “food”, either directly consumed, or during the “process”, such as those killed for AI or those who are killed as infants outside a slaughterhouse.
You don’t kill and consume animals because you honestly believe that NOT killing and NOT consuming animals is INhumane or UNethical, correct?
Why cause animal suffering that you can easily NOT?
