Three former Fair Oaks Farms workers have been charged with animal cruelty and one has been taken into custody after a new undercover video released June 12 appeared to show employees abusing cows with poles on the grounds, according to the Newton County Sheriff’s Office.
Animal rights group Animal Recovery Mission, that infiltrated the popular Indiana dairy farm, said its new footage shows workers abusing the farm’s adult cows with poles while loading them into a farm milking carousel.
