From Times Wire Reports

Workers at a chicken processing plant who were caught on videotape kicking, stomping and slamming chickens against the wall will not face criminal charges, a prosecutor said.

Ginny Conley, head of a state prosecutors’ organization, said that while the incident at the Pilgrims Pride plant in Moorefield was disturbing, it does not warrant criminal charges because “these were chickens in a slaughterhouse.”
