Now James Trexler is charged with mistreating horses in that state as well as Georgia. Trexler is South Carolina's Assistant Agriculture Commissioner. Trexler's mother and brother have also been arrested after 30 horses were found starving at the family's land in Jefferson County, about 40 miles from Augusta.
