Horses Impounded by Garfield County To be sold to the Highest Bidder

Published January 6th, 2008


Saturday - January 19 - 1:00 PM - Garfield County Fair Grounds, Rifle, Colorado

12_small.jpgAll the horses come from one New Castle case with multiple counts of cruelty to animals charges, said Tanny McGinnis, community relations deputy for the Garfield County Sheriff’s Office. Sheriff’s deputies initially took five of the horses in January of last year because the animals were in critical need of help, she said.

The sheriff’s office gave the owner, Richard Cordova, 71 at the time, a summons and offered to help him care for the animals. Six months earlier the sheriff’s office had offered to assist him and keep the animals healthy, but the owner declined the offer, McGinnis said.

After taking the five horses in January, the sheriff’s office monitored the status of the other horses and stepped in again, taking the other 25 horses in April, McGinnis said.
