Rubashkin's spokesman Mike Thomas agreed to let me know by 5:00 p.m. CST today if I would or would not be able to get a copy of the "independent Humane audit" Sholom Mordechai Rubashkin claims AgriProcessors passed in November of this year. AgriProcessors has repeatedly refused to answer requests made by reporters for copies of the audit, even though Rubashkin made the existence of the audit public and invited anyone to contact him to get the results.
It's 5:21 P.M. and still no answer.
