ok. the first thing you need to do is to make sure the guy gets arrested. DO NOT assume that those cops will do their job. if you can't personally be at the jail to see that he's brought in, call them relentlessly. hopefully the DA has suggested that the Sheriff's office get a warrant to search ALL the guy's property. in this situation, it shouldn't be particularly hard to get a judge to sign the order. you or the DA need to be present when that search is done. they may not let you, but i don't think they can stop your representative. they need to be THOROUGH.

IF Max isn't on the guy's property, then you should pursue serious charges against him. like in the previous case, it's most likely going to be a State vs idiot situation, but it will be up to YOU to make sure that the case is taken seriously. as you've unfortunately seen, no one in the "system" works for you as hard as you will. at this point, you might be able to find an attorney who will take the case pro bono since it's escalated from a "horse issue" to contempt of court and basically trafficking in known stolen goods. there are only two legal excuses for not obeying a court order: either the party didn't know about it or it was not possible to obey. neither of these are the situation here. he is CLEARLY in contempt. sell the lawyers on the trafficking angle when you speak with them. trafficking is a BIG DEAL and it is rarely a one time deal- these people should be investigated for a pattern of trafficking.

seriously don't want to sound like the doom and gloom patrol, but i want you to have the tools you need to get through this as fast as possible.

Sounds like a good idea, RoPo.

Asking RoPo again -

Did the judge even go out to look at Max? If not, maybe the uncle did something with Max along time ago.

The deputy "tipped" the uncle off last night to get rid of the horse. Taht makes the deputy an accomplice. The deputy should be arrested!

There is a boatload of family members in that town you live in...My bet is ... most of em are related. I have a couple pages of names and addresses... I would go back to the vet and the local papers and backtrack the family tree some... It is a good bet that your horse isn't far away... The horse community is a closed one... The local farriers may know the horse..
