In September 2021, two activists rescued birds from a stopped slaughter truck that was heading into the Foster Farms slaughterhouse in Livingston, CA. They received theft charges in the mail in spring 2022 and had their first court date on June 15, 2022 in Merced Superior Court, where they entered not guilty pleas via their attorney. At a hearing on December 13, 2022, their trial was scheduled for March 7, 2023 and it is expected to last 4-5 days. Direct Action Everywhere (DxE) is organizing a court support convergence around the trial. Register to join us at the trial by filling out this form.
