Only the town's electric company could know the "abandoned factory" was running that much electricity. And if so they should have petitioned the court to open the property and inspect before they turned off the juice.

It must be a sign of the times when we blame everyone except who ultimately responsible. Just because the coolers were running and drawing power does mean they are full. The parent company or the people that abandoned the meat there should be saddle with the entire blame. This is such a sin. I don't care what faith you are, you'll have to answer for this sometime.
