What legal action would you suggest would be effective, at this point?
Right now there's no SOLID proof her snakes have IBD. Just a high likelihood.
There IS solid proof she sold snakes AFTER having a diagnosis INDICATING IBD.
There IS solid proof she sold mite infested snakes, lied and misrepresented her snakes.
However, until testing is done, and even then, it's going to be a difficult thing to prove.

I just think there is a right way and a wrong way to go about situations like this one. Anyone who reads this thread probably won't want to have anything to do with Ashley.

I agree.
As far as blocking someone like Ashley from attending a show, I think her actions so far would be grounds enough to do so.
Do the promoters have a right to deny service to anyone?
If this were dogs we were referring to, and a known dog fighter showed up at a dog expo, I think he'd get denied service.
Unfortunately there are still those out there that think this is "just a thread picking on Ashley for no reason" and these people have snakes from Ashley, and still persist on placing themselves and their collections in a potentially risky situation. If THEY sell snakes that may also be affected..WOW.
