Cuffey - I am sorry if this sounds a really naive question, but do you have any idea where these stolen horses go? Do they go to sales, abroad, disreputable dealers, private homes (with naive people)........In other words, who DOES buy them?
Or, perhaps, they are taken for breeding purposes (coloureds in particular) for certain elements of the community - or maybe "community" is the wrong word!!!!

If you would rather send me a pm, then that's fine. I have no axe to grind, but I am just curious. Thanks.
