I hope they are severely punished. That being said, it can be tough to tell from a distance. All old horses look sickly, because they are. A few years back my MIL had someone call and complain that she was starving our horses. I can't remember if we still had three or were down to 2. Anyway they responded to the complaint only to discover pampered spoiled animals that were very old. I would have felt guilty just putting a saddle on them, much less riding. What they found was horses with 80 acres mostly in pasture, 7-8 large round bales a of hay and a supply of oats in the feed barn.
Bottom line it is hard to tell an old horse from a sick horse from a distànce just passing by. Not defending abusing any animal, but even animal and child abusers are presumed innocent until proven guilty.
