ipad 2 locked

ok so my church had a rummage sale to raise money for one of our members. while at this rummage sale i bought a i pads 2. when i got it home and charged it i found out it was still attached to another account. due to everything being donated i have no way of finding out who the previous owner was. so is there anything i can do to have that info removed and it added to my device list?

iPad 2, iOS 8.1

Unfortunately you cannot

That is the activation lock and who ever donated their iPads failed to remove it

That is an anti theft device and without the owner's permission those are not of much use to you
