Quote from article
=================
In mitigation, the court heard that Collis' actions were out of character and that she had been involved in dog breeding for about 30 years with no significant problems. She said that the recent problems were due to bankruptcy and her inability to cope financially rather than intentionally neglecting the dogs.

RSPCA inspector Clint Davies said:
"To show such a disregard for the basic needs of so many animals is unacceptable.

===================================================================================

Okay, I don't get it. If we suddenly murder or abuse someone we can plead mitigating circumstances, just because we've never done it before, i.e. now it is out of character?

What next? This woman is a monster. When she found she could not afford to care for the dogs, she should have contacted the RSPCA.

No excuse - lock her up and throw away the key - so she can experience what so many of these woofs expereinced.

Jeeeeeeeeeeeeeeezzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz

Thanks Cher!

Personally, this totally fries my cooker!!! What a NUT and insane person!!! I frankly am shaking at just reading this, so totally MAD, what a rotten person, she deserves to be put in a small pen with no water, no food and a chain that is totally tight around her neck.

This is so wrong, What is wrong with society that we let this happen...I am totally in tears!!!
