One can hope ... but laws against cruelty to animals differ widely ... Canada and Ontario are toughening the penalties for cruelty to animals ... but this is a strange and troubling case ... in animal cruelty cases it is usually the owners who are at fault; this seems a lot like a booze filled act of mindless stupidity. I hope that English law is like Canadian law, where being plastered is not a defence in a court of law.
