More to the Kristen Lindsey Story?

From Kristen's Facebook Page
after she posted the horrific picture


I guess you could say I am like a dog with a bone when some story really bothers me to this extent. It's like the more I read, the worst the picture is painted. Every fact and detail that emerges adds another nauseating element.

I received a rather long comment on my first blog about this story and it highlighted a few new things that really should be looked into. First of all, the Washington Animal Clinic, where Kristen worked, was quick to fire her and try to do damage control. I almost felt sorry for them, if their only wrong was hiring this woman and not knowing her true nature was inclined to harm animals. As she stated in her blog of 2011, under things she enjoyed was "killing things . . .[specifically] animals." How could they know someone who spent years studying to help and protect animals could be so cruel towards the very creatures she took an oath to care for? They did the right thing. They fired her immediately. But did they do that because they were disgusted or to protect their business?  I have to question their intentions to some degree. Do you see the name Misty Story at the bottom of those facebook posts? "What is meant to be will always be!" Misty is reported to be the office manager/receptionist at the very clinic Kristen worked for. She didn't seem disturbed by Kristen's "kill." On the contrary, it was meant to be. Someone posted on my first blog that Misty was the one taking the outraged phone calls to the clinic for two days, laughing and telling people to calm down about the incident. She still works there. Strange no one is following up on this at all except for some people who are following this case closely.

And another thing was brought to my attention too. Do you see the name Keri Elizabeth Camp, near the top?  "I needed to hear that! The Repro Gods are not being nice this year!" Keri doesn't work for the Washington Animal Clinic, but Keri does work with animals. Keri is a veterinarian at Equine Veterinarian Associates of Olive Branch, MS. Yes, you read right, another veteranarian sworn to care for animals who seems to be rejoicing over an animal's cruel and abusive killing. Is anyone asking her questions?  I can't believe there is another vet non-chalantly co-signing on this vicious, cold blooded act. I just learned this mornng that 20 hours ago a petition was started to revoke her license for condoning this horrific act. Over 2,000 people have signed already. Unfortunately, the petition is erroneously being directed at the Texas licensing board and not Mississippi, where Keri actually works. I'm not sure I feel as strongly about Keri losing her license for making a stupid comment, but she should get reprimanded and face some disciplinary action for her lack of professionalism. People like her are giving vets a bad name. P.S. Someone says they wrote to her veteranarian school and they support her. One thing is for sure, Keri took down her FB page and she won't be posting anything stupid for a long, long time.

So where are we now?  The sheriff's office has concluded their investigation and forwarded everything they have to the Austin County District Attorney, who will see if there is enough evidence to press charges. he may take it to a Grand Jury. The crime they should be trying her for can come with a two year prison sentence if she is tried and convicted. The Texas licensing board and the AVMA is watching to see what happens. They want to protect the reputations of all respected vets from being tarnished by this one act. All eyes are now on the DA. Will he sweep this under the rug or vigorously prosecute?  Time will tell.

  1. The level of hysteria over this incident has reached insane proportions. If 1/10th of the same social outrage was put towards any other cause we’d be curing cancer and feeding starving children by now. What happened to that poor cat is very sad but it’s a matter for the legal system to decide now. Put just a fraction of the time people are spending on this into another cause and do something to actually change the world.

    2. Hysteria? People are horrified and expressing their sadness and anger. Who do you think you are to try to dictate what people should be outraged about?

    3. No. We are putting down our feet because this person was entrusted with animals and her true nature was revealed. We want her nowhere near of animals and want to expose the truth that she is with a high probability a sociopath.

    4. Anyone who is a good person tries to change the world or make a difference each in their own way. Everyone who takes time out of their lives to help any cause should eb applauded for their efforts.

    5. Seriously? I know this is over a year old but people like the first poster are dumb af. This IS a cause. Just because you personally don't think it's as important as all the other things you probably aren't doing anything about either, doesn't mean it IS less important.

  2. Dr. Keri Camp says in her autobiographical pitch, says that she owns "a hangin' tree cattle dog." In the south a "hangin' tree" is what was used to murder black people for being black people.

  3. I've never heard of a hanging tree cattle dog so I looked it up. It's a breed that helps herd cattle amongst other things. You learn something new everyday. Here is the site I checked out http://hangintreecowdog.net/

  4. We are trying to change the world, Anonymous. We are trying to let everyone know that animal cruelty will NOT be tolerated against ANY animal, cats included! I'm sure that Dr Camp and her ranch hand husband would not tolerate someone doing this to their three dogs. And I'm sure that Kristen Lindsey would not tolerate someone doing this to the dog she so proudly displays on her blog!

    1. Thanks, I read abou that. it seems they did not follow through, still investigating? I don't know what more there is to invesitigate when she laid the whole case out for them on social media. I am afraid that they are stalling and waiting for people to forget about this.

  6. So Keri Camp went to school to get experience in lameness? She is definitely lame in the brain. Fire her too!
