"We began working to improve conditions for animals there in 2000, when we were asked by a police officer to stop local pounds from killing cats and dogs by gassing and shooting them. We immediately began properly — and painlessly — euthanizing sick and unwanted animals."

This is so deceitful in so many ways.

The prosecutor pointed out that the vet was not gassing and shooting the innocent animals that PETA solicited from them under false pretences and then immediately killed.

And they are not the saints they pretend to be by deceitfully calling the killing of healthy animals "euthanasia". That is one of the most common deceits practiced by everyone in the animal-disposing industry. Calling killing the healthy "euthanasia" is a lie.

PETA can't honestly justify sending its employees to take adoptable animals from a vet and then immediately killing the animals - so it is lying. Very familiar lies too - we've heard them and documented them hundreds of times.
