"The bags located in the dumpster contained 18 dead dogs, including one bag containing seven puppies. An additional 13 dead dogs were found in the van."

"According to Barry (Anderson, Bertie's Animal Officer), the man and woman told him they were picking up the dogs to take them back to Norfolk where they would find them good homes," Pittman said."

"They just slung the doors [open] and started throwing dogs ... beautiful cats. I saw a [dead] beagle last week that was pregnant ... last week it was 23 or 24 dogs ... it's happened to us nine times ... they drove straight from there, straight here, and disposed of the dogs in 30 seconds."

"Local officials and veterinarians said they were told that PETA would find homes for the animals, not euthanize them."

"But veterinarian Patrick Proctor said that authorities found a female cat and her two "very adoptable" kittens among the dead animals. He said they were taken from Ahoskie Animal Hospital."

"When they started taking them, they said they would try to find homes for them," Brown said, adding that no one checked on the animals afterward."

"Anderson also said that the PETA representatives "told him they were picking up the dogs to take them back to Norfolk where they would find them good homes," Pittman said. "

“The animal that I found was a very healthy six month old puppy that had been killed that day," says Proctor."

“PETA had come by yesterday afternoon and picked up a mother cat and two young kittens and told us they were going to find homes for them in the Virginia area, and put them in a white van exactly matching the description of the white van we saw last night. It's just not right to take animals and just kill them and dump them in a county. They deserve a good burial," says Proctor."

"These were just kittens we were trying to find homes for," he said. "PETA said they would do that, but these cats never made it out of the county."

I think it's safe to say the People for the ETHICAL Treatment of animals lied... To the animals and humans.
