Details Of Mardi Gras Racetrack Worker Termination
WEST VIRGINIA....
The state Racing Commission has released details of animal mistreatment at the Mardi Gras Racetrack in Nitro that occurred earlier this year. James Edgar Childress, 40, a kennel helper with Xtreme Kennels, was disciplined in May 2009 for hitting a dog.
Judges suspended his license for a week and ordered him to undergo anger management training, with the provison that his license would be terminated if he committed further violations. In April, he found himself in front of judges again for abusing a greyhound, and his license was terminated for grabbing a greyhound by the neck and ear and throwing it in a truck after the dog slipped out of its collar and ran.
