PLAN OF ACTION
Here’s a transparent update on our strategy and the steps we’re taking together.
This is not about one action. It’s about building a record that cannot be ignored.
The record is undeniable. It was built by Daniel God Koller, DVM and the OVMEB spanning over four decades.
We're just making sure it is the loudest voice in the room, they can no longer hide from!
Step 1: Build the Evidentiary Record
We are compiling victim and witness accounts, records, timelines, media, and disciplinary history into formal evidentiary packets.
Purpose:
• Preserve decades of harm in one place
• Show pattern, not isolated incidents
• Establish notice, recidivism, and oversight failures
• Make it easy for agencies, lawmakers, and courts to see the full scope
This record becomes the backbone for everything that follows.
Step 3: Demand Letters / Formal Notice
Once the record is mature and agencies are on notice, demand letters may be sent to:
• Regulatory bodies
• Oversight officials
• Potentially responsible institutions
Purpose:
• Lay out documented failures
• Demand specific corrective actions
• Preserve claims and timelines
• Establish good-faith effort before litigation
These are not threats — they are formal notices grounded in evidence.
Step 5: Potential Civil Litigation
If evidence continues to show:
• Gross negligence
• Reckless disregard
• Failure to protect public and animals
• Patterned harm enabled by oversight failures
Then a civil lawsuit may be explored — potentially involving:
• Victims
• Whistleblowers
• Class or consolidated actions
• Claims focused on civil rights, consumer protection, and institutional negligence
Purpose:
• Force accountability when regulators won’t
• Compel discovery of internal records
• Create legal consequences for systemic failure
• Protect future animals and families
Step 2: Trigger Oversight & Investigations
Those packets are being submitted to:
• OVMEB (licensing board)
• Oregon DOJ
• Law enforcement / humane investigators
• Legislative offices
• Federal oversight (USDA/APHIS) where applicable
Purpose:
• Put institutions on formal notice
• Force acknowledgment and review
• Create a paper trail of who knew what, and when
• Open or expand investigations
This step is about exhausting lawful oversight channels with facts.
Step 4: Public Accountability (Peaceful Protest)
If agencies fail to act meaningfully, we are preparing for lawful, peaceful, public protest —at the OVMEB office.
Purpose:
• Bring visibility to institutional inaction
• Center victims’ voices publicly
• Demand transparency and reform
• Show this is not isolated or going away
Protest is not the first step for the OVMEB office. We are being strategic when we land on their front door and why we are there, when we do. It is what happens after systems fail to respond to us.
