The operator of a New Jersey equine sanctuary is facing multiple animal cruelty charges for allegedly maltreating horses, donkeys, and other animals in her care.

In a written statement, the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office said Waterford Township Police Department officers acted on a search warrant to conduct a welfare check on the approximately 70 animals residing at the Labrador Hill Equine Sanctuary on July 13. As a result of the search, property owner and sanctuary operator Sarah Rabinowitz received a court order to take “immediate remedial measures” regarding insufficient water sources and inadequate sheltering for the animals.

Authorities also charged Rabinowitz with 57 fourth-degree counts of causing bodily injury to a living animal or creature by failing to provide necessary care to the animals, as well as five counts of animal cruelty for failing to provide necessary care.

Rabinowitz disagreed with the charges
