Hearing set for Honey Brook horse trainer
Published: Monday, February 20, 2012
The preliminary hearing for a Honey Brook Township horse trainer accused of fraudulently selling racehorses for slaughter is scheduled for today.
A spokeswoman for Magisterial District Judge Michael J. Smith of Harrisburg said the hearing for Kelsey Lefever is set for 2:30 p.m.
In November, Lefever, 24, was charged with four counts of theft and one count of deceptive business practices after state police alleged she sold four thoroughbred racehorses to a New Holland company that sells horses to slaughterhouses in Canada.
Known as a skilled trainer in equestrian circles in the county and has shown horses at the Devon Horse Show, Lefever allegedly told two men from whom she had bought the horses that she would “care for, retain and re-home the horses into new careers” after they had finished their racing lives.
