Earlier this November, many were outraged when they heard the story of P’Nut (also known as Peanut), an adorable squirrel who was bothering exactly nobody as he lived his existence bringing joy to New York state residents Mark Longo and Daniela Bittner as their pet.

But over-reaching bureaucrats and government tyrants care little of such things; all they know is there are rules and regulations that must be followed no matter how senseless they may seem, so they raided the couple’s house and animal sanctuary, took P’Nut as well as the couple’s raccoon buddy Fred, and killed them both. 

The tragic story went viral:

Peanut the Squirrel's Fate Draws Supreme Attention


Supreme Justice Neil Gorsuch called it out, saying, “I’ve just seen too many cases like that.” A new cryptocurrency named PNUT has even been introduced and is “dedicated to honoring the spirit of Peanut the Squirrel.”

Then-candidate and now President-elect Donald Trump noticed:

Now the couple wants accountability for those who oversaw this ridiculous operation—and they're planning to sue:

Mark Longo and his wife, Daniela, have filed a Notice of Claims against multiple local and state agencies. Not only do they say it's a case of animal rights violations, but humans too. In the document, the Claimants state that several of their state and federal constitutional rights were violated on the day the animals were seized from their home.

Among other claimed violations, Longo says he and his wife were not granted due process throughout the last several months in regard to having Peanut and Fred.

After the New York State Department of Environmental Conservation (NYSDEC) came to the Longo residence in October, Mark claims he and Daniela's house in Pine City was torn apart, their companion animals were killed, and they were treated unfairly by state officials.

The animals were seized and euthanized on October 30 to test for rabies. Those tests came back negative for both animals.

 Was this little guy harming anyone? Was he a threat to Democracy? No.

Does this sound like a government working for the people, or one just drunk on power?

"We want to know how these procedures were, you know, how they failed," said Mark Longo, Peanut and Fred's owner and the owner of P'Nut's Freedom Farm and Animal Sanctuary. "Why was I asked about cameras in my house? Why was I detained for five hours without being arrested? Why was my wife's immigration status questioned? You know, why didn't I get due process? Why was I silenced? Why was I intimidated not to use my phone?"

The Notice of Claims indicate pending legal action against the New York State Attorney General's Office, NYSDEC, the State Department of Health, along with Chemung County, the County Health Department, Elmira Police Department, and Elmira Animal Control.

I strongly hope Daniela and Mark are able to force some accountability on these petty little dictators. However, we are talking about New York State here, where the political environment is close to "criminally insane" on the dial, so we'll just have to wait and see.

Accountability wouldn't bring P'Nut and Fred back, but it would still send a profound message—that this kind of nonsense is no longer acceptable. 

It's time for a new reality now.
