Animal Shelter Cideo Riles Humane Society

A video of a Frederick County Animal Control employee touting a recently formed pet advocacy organization has resulted in an ethics investigation.

The Humane Society of the United States and a Frederick resident both contacted the county about the actions of Diana Culp, who works as a humane educator for Frederick County Animal Control and serves as the co-director of the fledgling Humane Society for Shelter Pets. She is also a former employee of the Humane Society of the United States.

"What we [HSSP] are trying to do is connect people with shelters and rescues they want to donate to," she said Wednesday.

As part of the organization's efforts, members posted a video featuring Culp on its website in November. The video has since been removed.
