Investigator interview

ITime magazine has published an interview with “Pete,” the undercover investigator featured in Death on a Factory Farm.

In it, he speaks touchingly of how he got into this line of work: “My initial plan in life was to become a cop and then join the FBI. But I started to learn that the worst things I’ve ever read about humans being doing to each other—similar if not identical things happen to animals on a mass scale. I felt that there were enough people in law enforcement, but there weren’t enough people working in animal rights.”—and of the toll it has taken on him: “It’s a very depressing life and it’s a very lonely life.”

It’s an intriguing glimpse into his life.
