The woman's 2 children (adults) should never be allowed to have children, or god help their kid's if they ever misbehave.

If I was on a jury I would never convict anyone who did anything to those 3.

Just ban them from owning any animals and give them a fine.

Hardly worthy of being sent to our already overcrowding prisons or a lengthy prison sentence.

I don't think a fine is a tough enough punishment for animal cruelty.

Yes the prisons are overcrowded but that is because judges and magistrates give harsher sentences to people who do "money" crimes. A shoplifter can be put in prison even if what they stole was not the valuable yet these people caused suffering to 8 dogs and don't go to prison.

Stop being melodramatic. If it is not worth a prison sentence, it most certaintly is not worth a death sentence.

They harmed animals not rape and kill children.

In lots of peoples opinions it is worth a prison sentence. They should be made to suffer.

It is worth a prison sentence they deliberately and knowingly harmed living creatures. What they did is sick and cruel and absolutely unnecessary.

I would not support jail for small time shoplifters. Waste of public money to put them in jail.

The Judge must have thought differently and that the crime was not worth a prison sentence.

The story made me cry. Those poor dogs.

Words cannot express my disgust for the people that subjected those poor dogs to unimaginable cruelty but also to the magistrates who thought a fine was a suitable sentence. They should have gone to prison

What I cant understand is why they didnt take them to a rescue centre or even tie them to a tree and ring the RSPCA.
Obviously their chances of being rehomed would have been slimish but at least they would'nt have suffered like this.
Some people are just horrid, its like that woman in Bradford who let her baby strave to death.
They should have gone to prison because its just depravity.

Bottom line is sentencing for animal related crimes is minor. This seems a mistake since we know animal cruelty often precursors or co-exists with people related crime. Unfortunately some of the most notorious criminals.. especially serial killers... began their offending against animals and of course this was largely unchallenged by society.


Of course that's not to suggest we have serial killers in the making here but clearly things are not right in this mother's cognition when she elected the course of action she did for the duration she did. The children's lack of reasonable response is further implication of 'troubled' upbringing. Had there been a trial it seems likely they would have faced jail.

The message is that you can commit any sort of animal cruelty and effectively escape punishment. Ridiculous. The maximum period of incarceration is only six months anyway. Compare that with criminal damage where the maximum sentence is 14 years.

Someone earlier said we should brick these scumbags in a room and leave them. That is literally what I'd do, given the opportunity. They're a blight on society and it's a fitting way to rid ourselves of their polluting influence.

I believe it was magistrates who heard the case not a judge. Mind you a lot of magistrates are as far removed from reality as judges are.

How exactly do magistrates and judges decide whether a crime is worth a prison sentence or not? They put people in prison for not paying council tax, for shoplifting, for stealing (often quite small amounts of money) yet letting 8 dogs suffer needlessly doesn't deserve prison!
