My article on “New York Livestock Animal Cruelty Law: What if a Non-Police Officer Comes Knocking?” was published in the May 2015 issue of Grassroots newspaper published by New York Farm Bureau. You can find the article on pages 20 and 25 here. The article gives a brief overview of New York farm animal cruelty law, gives a checklist for New York farmers and livestock producers if they are confronted by a peace officer, and offers a view pointers for preventative measures.
