Answering Questions
The officers took Ben aside to answer some queries they had for him. They mainly revolved around him and his beloved horse. Ben has had the horse since he was a child and knew her as well as he knew himself.
There is such a thing as forensic veterinarians. They are in charge of identifying, collecting, and assessing evidence from animals and their environment. Ben had to answer questions based on the welfare of his horse, which raised suspicion. Animal cruelty can be punished by a prison sentence or the payment of fines, depending on the country.
