Justice For Cobain

The Issue

JUSTICEFORCOBAIN

Shannon Eckel, a horse trainer, hung a horse simply because he would not load up to go to a competition.

Cobain was tied up in his stable, with his halter on the top bar, making his head hold up unnaturally high. He struggled for hours, eventually breaking his back, neck and even losing teeth in the struggle.

She also has unorthodox methods of training her horses, including overworking them for a "better ride". Again, these are NOT HER HORSES.

The Court has ruled this as a "freak accident" but this is not the case. Cobain wasn't even her horse, she was training him. We believe Cobain and his owner deserve better, Shannon Eckel should be in jail for animal abuse, neglect and technically murder.
