Today, the world has turned upside down. What is good is called evil and what is evil
is called good. I have previously
written about the many violent criminals and just plain lunatics who are now
"animal cops" heading up various animal rescues and shelters. I've written about urban vigilante and
private Rambo Richard
Couto who targets poor farmers.
I've written about quacks such as Ohio's Adam Herrera who stirred up a
public firestorm over a fake
story of dead skinned puppies. I've
written many times about serial
dirtbag Scotlund Haisley who operates a private SWAT team because being in
the "animal protection field" gets him better lap dances from
strippers. In part 1 of this continuing series, I covered
more of the criminal backgrounds of many leaders in the animal rights movement
who spoke at this year's Animal Rights Conference.
Part of the problem is that almost all of the training
local, state and federal law enforcement receives is conducted by animal rights
extremists. Almost no training is
conducted by actual animal experts.
Particularly egregious are the law enforcement seminars that the Humane Society
of the United States (HSUS) gives for free to law enforcement nationwide. This free
training is conducted by fringe lunatics.
Sex perverts and convicted felons have infiltrated the National
Sheriff’s Association and are now providing
the majority of training that law enforcement receives on farming, zoo’s
and pet owners. Local animal control
training is even worse. While many
localities take advantage of free training by HSUS and PETA, even more lunatics
jump aboard in localities. In 2013, the Virginia Animal Control
Association offered law enforcement four
hours of training on animal sex. The
'certified expert witness' who taught the animal sex class has a degree in
Business and Accounting, not veterinary medicine.
While the animal rescue field is awash in legions of
criminals who have jumped on the 'cute puppy or kitten' bandwagon to con you
into opening your wallets, an even more dangerous criminal has infiltrated,
that of the sex pervert. One of the
biggest exposes came by accident when reporter John Stossel, then working for
ABC's 20/20 program in 2005, ran an expose on celebrated animal cop Dave Garcia
of the SPCA of Texas and other out of control SPCA's across America who were
stealing animals for profit.
When Stossel ran with his story
on Garcia illegally raiding the homes of women to steal their dogs from them
and frame them for charges of animal cruelty, even he had no idea the time that
Garcia was a convicted rapist. Garcia served three years in prison in
Arizona for kidnapping and raping a woman.
He also had drunk driving arrests in Arizona, Texas, and Missouri and an
outstanding warrant at the time of the broadcast. Garcia had a long history of working in the
animal rescue field. He worked for the
Houston SPCA, the Humane Society of Greater Miami, the Humane Society of
Missouri and the Denver Dumb Friends League.
Even more frightening, this convicted rapist was a "guest
instructor" at the National Cruelty Investigators School.
Even more famous is the scandal
that hit the Louisville, Kentucky animal shelter in 2009. Louisville Metro Animal Services head Giles
Meloche was forced to resign after his sordid history became public. From losing his medical license in his
native Canada after he
pled guilty to 27 counts of selling anabolic steroids without a license to
massive sexual assault complaints filed against him. He was replaced by Wayne Zelinsky who lasted
just 14 months when it was discovered that he
owned and operated a porn business.
Then there's the Humane Society of the United States (HSUS) alumni
Arthur E. Benjamin who was sued by the federal government for fraud and sued
multiple times for raping women.
According to these lawsuits, Benjamin
has a 20 year history of sexual assault.
Then there is former HSUS Vice
President accused pedophile and convicted felon with mob connections David
Wills.
Wills, whose criminal convictions date back to 1973, was
formerly the head of the Nashua Humane Society in New Hampshire, leaving in
1978 just before money was discovered missing from their books. He resurfaced at the Michigan Humane Society
and worked there until 1989, resigning suddenly when the board started an
investigation into $1.6 million in missing money. He surfaced again at HSUS and worked there
until he was sued in 1995 for sexually harassing multiple female
employees. The law finally started
catching up to him once again when he was arrested in Maryland and pled guilty
in 1999 for embezzling money. Since
2015, Wills has been fighting federal sex trafficking charges for his alleged long term
sexual assaults of a 9-year old girl.
Besides assaulting the little girl himself, Wills is also
accused of forcing her to work as a prostitute.
Wills ties to HSUS continue today.
He is a close
friend of current HSUS CEO Wayne Pacelle, who recruited Pacelle to join
HSUS in 1994.
Lasoya pled guilty to selling her nine year old daughter to
David Wills for sex while at the same time he wrote and released a
self-aggrandizing book on his 'career' in the animal rescue world. As for Wills, he's currently out of jail, released
on a $5 million dollar bail. Let that fact sink in the next time you are
tempted to open your wallet at some sob story an animal rescue is promoting. Think of a man who worked his entire life in
various humane societies amassing enough money to pay a $5 million dollar
bond.
In Illinois anti-puppy activist Kathy Mehalko routinely
slanders pet stores and claims they are all fronts for deplorable puppy mills
raising dogs in horrific conditions. In
2016, an Illinois pet store had enough and sued
her for defamation. Mehalko, using
typical activist tactics, posted a picture of a dog kennel on social media and
then claimed this kennel was the source of the puppies sold by Furry Babies of
Illinois. The pet store owner sued
claiming they had never bought a dog from the kennel posted on social media by Mehalko.
In August of 2017,
Mehalko's 38 year old son Jason was arrested for criminal sexual assault of a
child going back to 2008. He was arrested
by the Winnebago County Sheriff's Department in Illinois for charges out of Kenosha, Wisconsin. He was released on a $25,000 bond pending
trial and is barred from having any contact with any female under the age of
18.

Shocking no one who has interacted with Mehalko, she immediately
posted that she was proud of her son.
The cases listed here are just the tip of the iceberg. Sadists, felons and rapists have discovered
that the quickest way to get to your child, your sister, your girlfriend or your wife is through images of
sad eyed puppies and kittens.
