IDA provided District Attorney Key's office with sworn affidavits from two veterinarians who were uniformly appalled by the allegations now corroborated by the criminal charges filed against Charles River Laboratories and veterinarian Dr. Rick Lee.

Perhaps most damning, ex-Coulston Foundation veterinarian Brit Oiulfstad, DVM, MPH stated in her sworn affidavit that she had never witnessed or heard of anything at the failed Coulston lab that even approached the willful cruelty allegedly committed by NIH contractor Charles River, which she described as violating "the most basic precepts of veterinary ethics and basic human decency."

In his sworn affidavit, C. James Mahoney, DVM, PhD, a primate veterinarian with over twenty years of clinical chimpanzee experience, described the management of the APF as "fundamentally twisted and despicable."
