Man jailed for killing his farm animals
Man jailed for killing his farm animals
A man was found guilty of animal cruelty, as he left more than 170 animals unattended, some dead, for days on end.
Geoffrey Bennett was jailed for animal welfare offences, according to the BBC. After the hearing, the RSPCA said two ponies and a goat had to be put down on site and more were euthanised later.
The charity said that visiting the farm found starving animals standing in months worth of faeces.
Bennett was jailed for 19 weeks and banned from owning, keeping and dealing in animals.

One expert told the Independent that the most likely explanation for the extreme cold symptoms is that “our immune systems have had limited exposure to colds over the past 18 months”.
