Re: Horses Killed in darwen.

A woman, I have now lost touch with, ran a stables in Darwen, known as Earnsdale Farm.
Is that the same site which was torched?

The Telegraph gives the lady's details as Mary Howarth aged 60 of Sough Farm stable blocks, off Cranberry Lane, Darwen.

Flip the keyboard over and give it a few lightish whacks. You'd be surprised at the amount of crud that falls out...worth a dip ;)

My chap is a fireman, he went to this fire and said it was devastating!!!
I hope the people who have been charged do not get off lightly.

Re: Horses Killed in darwen.

As I said in an earlier post, this incident happened fairly close to where I live and last night the police posted printed notes through the doors of people living in the vicinity.

The note says that 3 young men have been arrested and will appear at Blackburn Magistrates Court this morning, charged with burglary and arson offences. The accused have no prior convictions and had been out drinking, to celebrate a birthday.

An application will be made to remand the accused in custody prior to their trial.

The scumbags will probably get community service, and then sent on holiday to get over the trauma.

Thats my problem with this.
Yeah they have been caught but the punishment never seems to fit the crime,whatever they get won't be a deterrent and will more likely than not reoffend.
It's disgusting pure and simple.:mad:

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.
