Setting Our Record Straight

Setting Our Record Straight

20 June 2016

For the record--Stolen Horse International ("NetPosse") does verify the information that we get for all of our regular reports-Stolen Horses, Missing (Civil), Missing-Searching for Horse, Lost/Found, etc. Those cases are potentially ones that can go to litigation for the owners, they can mean the life or death of the horse, and/or they may involve some liability on the part of someone. Mishandling the case because we get caught up in the 'chase' of trying to locate a horse or locking up a bad guy can get a horse killed or ruin a court case. Neither one of these scenarios is something that we want to have happen.

At the same time-we at Stolen Horse International are not professional sleuths-we do not pretend to be. We are volunteers who happen to know a great deal about what we are doing. We've had a great teacher. We cannot find all of them, but we do a darn good job.

When it comes to news via Facebook about some of our colleagues, we are just as much at the mercy of the posts of others as any one else. Some people offer us assistance-others do not. Some actively stand in our way. It is the nature of the human condition. We try to offer cooperation and support when we can, and stay neutral when we cannot.

Investigation of the activities of each and every person posting on Facebook would be time consuming and unnecessary for the most part-not to mention expensive. It is also fraught with the possibility of all sorts of legal obstacles. It is not our mission and not what we are here for. Saying that we have neglected our duty is preposterous.

We now return to our normal programming.
