You're right, that's part of it.
Here's pretty much the summary of it to clarify it all:
What has been seen in the thread so far:
*A necropsy on a BCL in 2009 that died 2 months after purchase, indicating IBD (inclusion body disease)
*The same BCL was housed with the main collection for a period of time
*Chronic mite infestations (which are possible transmitters of the disease)
*Little/No quarantine
*Cycles of 200+ animals in and out of the collection over a 2 year time period
*Several deaths that may or may not be IBD related
*Medical proof from actual research stating IBD can test "negative" on collections and STILL be present
*Ashley CONTINUES to sell/breed/acquire more snakes/animals despite knowing IBD existed and obvious issues in the collection
*Ashley refusing to acknowledge concerns from 2 "friends"/customers wanting answers
*The 2 people discovered mites on the snakes they received from her
*Ashley going into hiding and refusing to refund the 2 people
*Ashley continued to post fun-loving threads and joke around while her "friends" are literally biting their nails waiting for a sniffle from a snake
*Ashley attempted sale of a Jamp retic with mouth rot and a severe respiratory infection
*Ashley keeps venomous snakes, which both those and large constrictors (retics, burms) are illegal within Killeen, TX city limits
What has NOT been seen:
*Ashley admitting ANY responsibility for her actions
*Any further testing to clear the collection (other than 2 of the several snakes that had died, and it was determined IBD tests were NOT performed)
*Any sort of remorse, apology, sincerity or intention to make amends on Ashley's part
