After receiving a call about the welfare of the horses, investigators from the Fannin County Sheriff’s Office and Habitat for Horses, a statewide rescue group, met the horses’ owner at the pasture. Three horses were found dead in the pasture and several more had to be euthanized due to their poor condition. A majority of the remaining horses were removed, by owner consent, to another Bonham location, according to Deanna Murillo of Habitat for Horses."
