Makes A Nice Change...

The mother of a man who beat his puppy to death cheered as her son was jailed after joining animal rights protesters in court.
Usually, the underclass parents are there to whinge at how 'unfair' it is. So this is refreshing!
Jon-Luc McLoughlin, 26, savagely punched 11-month-old Alsatian Lexi to death before dumping her body near some trees, which traumatised children later found.
His sentencing hearing was attended by around 25 animal rights campaigners and among them was the defendant’s mother and half-brother.
McLoughlin, from Poole, Dorset, was jailed for 16 weeks but his sibling, Alec Mackay said the sentence wasn’t long enough.
It wasn't.
James Moore, mitigating, said that the defendant was a ‘deeply troubled individual’ and asked for him to be offered rehabilitation.
He said: ‘We are a nation of animal lovers and this has caused a lot of anger in the whole community.
‘He lost control and acted in blind rage. We all to some extent sometimes lose control and regret it.
‘Mr McLoughlin has done that in a significant way and will have to live with that. However, he has not done it because he is depraved, he has done it because he is a deeply troubled individual.’
Let's hope he's 'deeply troubled' in jail. By animal lovers who won't confine their displeasure to a few harsh words...

  1. I'm curious - were the children "Traumatised" before finding the dog?

  2. Jon-Luc? I assume that one of his parents was a Star Trek fan - enough to start you on a troubled life. Betcha his schoolmates (if he had any) called him Baldy and his teachers, when giving him homework, said 'Make it so'. And his mother thinks he's a tosser - probably always did. No father around. In that case he probably is a nutter.

  3. I would that his punishment will really begin once he is revealed from prison, which may make him boldly go where he has never gone before.
    Sorry anon, couldn't resistt it.

  4. Sorry, a lot of the family descriptions are so bizarre in these stories that I momentarily read "the defendant’s mother and half-brother" as being the same person. We live in strange times.
