Episode Description
BREAKING NEWS with coverage of an extraordinary court hearing in Madison, Wisconsin. Famed Open Rescue leader Wayne Hsiung is demanding that a Special Prosecutor be appointed to launch a criminal case against a large laboratory beagle breeding facility that animal advocates charge is filled with many suffering beagles. Hsiung and 2 others entered that facility with cameras rolling back in 2017, documenting conditions. They removed 3 beagles they described as being in extreme distress. Hsiung was facing felony charges and up to 16 years in prison when the case against him and the 2 others was suddenly dropped earlier this year, just days before trial was finally set to start. Now, Wayne Hsiung is back in court demanding the facility be prosecuted. UnchainedTV had a camera in court to bring viewers the developments LIVE. UnchainedTV host Jane Velez-Mitchell, attorney Mirais Holden and animal activist Tiffany Brunelli provide analysis. The company in question is invited on any time.
