Georgia Legal Professionals for Animals, Inc. (GLPA) is a non-profit, mainstream animal advocacy organization comprised of volunteer professionals who care about the humane treatment of animals. Please read our Mission Statement, other links about our group and refer to our prosecutors' manual. Thank you for visiting our site and your interest in GLPA.
How to Prosecute Animal Cruelty from Start to Finish is our prosecutors' manual on animal cruelty prosecutions. The manual is a collective GLPA project and is copyrighted material of GLPA. The manual offers a step-by-step guide on how to prosecute such crimes including valuable tips on evidence gathering, making a solid case and issues facing investigators. The manual also sets forth the critical role played by veterinarians, and cites the relevant Georgia cruelty laws. The manual is a work in progress and will be updated and revised periodically.
