Shasta County agreed to pay $300,000 to settle a lawsuit over a decision to use deputies to seize a girl's pet goat to be slaughtered. It's still unclear who instructed the sheriff's deputies to get involved.
A 9-year-old girl who fell in love with the goat she raised for the Shasta District Fair was heartbroken when deputies, wielding a search warrant, confiscated the furry livestock, taking him away to be butchered. Two years after the scandal erupted, Shasta County has agreed to pay $300,000 to the girl's family to settle the legal dispute over the floppy-eared brown-and-white goat named Cedar.
During the last two years, Shakib said fair and county officials have engaged in 'obstructionist discovery tactics' to avoid answering key questions about happened to the goat, and what role officials played in seizing and destroying the animal. 'Years later this case still has several unanswered questions,' she said.
