WEWOKA, Okla. (AP) — Authorities in Seminole County arrested a woman for animal abuse after finding between 20 and 30 dead horses at what she claimed was an animal rescue operation.  Sheriff's deputies who entered the property on Friday say they found another 64 horses suffering from malnutrition.  Deputies also found four goats, 28 dogs, a chinchilla, a lizard and a grey parrot on site.
