New Jersey, An Anti-Animal Cruelty Organization And Corruption

     In researching more about what transpired in New Jersey regarding the end of an animal organization's mandate to investigate animal cruelty, and instead having it placed in the hands of  public law enforcement (the only place where it belongs), it was heartening to think that this was done out of the realization of how ineffective and harmful it is to have animal cruelty investigated by an animal organization. Instead, it appears the main motivation stems from the abuse of power and corruption by one particular animal organization.
     Corruption often is not overt. Often it is insidious and hidden, and does not blatantly violate the law. When corruption is not overt or sensational, there is rarely anyone, and certainly not the media or press (shortsighted and sensation driven as they are) willing to take a look. Across the United States, the response to animal cruelty and dog fighting continues to be disgraceful.
     Many nonprofits and individuals are enriched, no matter how corrupt, ineffective and harmful they might be. Whether it is animal cruelty, animal welfare, wildlife protection, or a host of other matters, the more there is suffering and crisis, the more these organizations and individuals benefit.
      What transpired in New Jersey is but the small tip of the iceberg.
