Ridglan Farms to be Investigated by the State, Judge Rules!

The Rise for Animals Team, January 9, 2025

Just this morning, we learned that a Special Prosecutor will be appointed to investigate animal breeding and research facility Ridglan Farms

The presiding judge has found that “there is probable cause to believe that Ridglan has committed crimes under Wisconsin’s animal cruelty laws, and the district attorney has failed to issue a complaint or commence an investigation into Ridglan’s conduct.”

Since the graphic October 2024 evidentiary hearing, many of us have been eagerly anticipating this decision, and huge thanks belong to the brave advocates who made today’s ruling possible – as well as all of their allies, like you, who supported their efforts by spreading the word and contacting the Governor!
