and we suspect she may have been an insurance escapee. Where the horse was scheduled to be PTS but was hidden away instead.

Loss of use insurance sometimes requires the horse to be euthanized to pay.

Loss of Use/Mortality coverage can vary a great deal. SOME insurers assume ownership of the animal if the animal has a life-threatening condition and is euthanized.

ETA because I am half asleep: The owner may have notified the insurer that the horse had indeed been pts while instead sent the lame horse off to an auction or some back field.
