Activist Laura Loomer released video footage from Ali Meat International, a USDA-registered halal slaughterhouse in Orlando, showing alleged animal cruelty violations during last year's Eid al-Adha festival. The footage purportedly shows customers and children participating in animal slaughter, plus staff using electro-shock methods.
Loomer claims the video was sent to Florida Dept. of Agriculture, Orange County Sheriff's Office, and local prosecutors in 2023, but the facility remains operational. She's calling on Florida AG James Uthmeier to shut down the slaughterhouse, citing violations of state and federal humane slaughter laws.
The facility is located at 1616 S. Dean Rd in Orlando. No official response from cited authorities yet.
