Mark Longo and Daniela Bittner, owners of P’Nut the Squirrel and Fred the Raccoon, have filed a lawsuit against New York State, alleging government overreach in the 'execution' of their pets. The couple claims the raid, during which the animals were euthanized, was illegal and based on fabricated accusations that the pets had rabies. They described the incident as an 'obscene demonstration of government abuse.'
