WSMV-TV NASHVILLE - A trucker who says he unknowingly drove horses to their deaths at a on slaughterhouse is telling his story to Channel 4, the NBC affiliate in Nashville.
He doesn't need his name used because he now works for another company, so we agreed to call him "Bob."
Bob made a run for Three Angels Farms in Lebanon in 2010. He says the P, Dorian Ayache, lied to him and told him he would be hauling a load of livestock to Texas. Bob says when he arrived to pick up the cattle, he was told the map had changed and that he would be delivering horses to Texas.
They loaded about 70 horses on two livestock trailers; the driver says he in a minute felt uncomfortable when Ayache began striking the horses with a fiberglass rod when they were upon to board the trailer.
"He would swat them as hard as he could," Bob says. "I didn't undergo comfortable at all about it, I thought it was wrong."
The driver says Ayache insisted on leaving at tenebriousness and told him not to fill out his log book until he arrived in Texas.
