Scum who slaughtered piglets have no excuse

And to all do-gooders out there, of whom no doubt there will be plenty, get real.

There is no excuse for what they did: single parent family, deprived childhood, whatever.

Nothing gives these scumbags the right or excuse to go out there and deliberately slaughter innocent animals, just because they don’t have the capability to love, appreciate and respect animals.

If and when they are caught, and I pray to God they will be, how about leaving the sentencing to us animal lovers and let us give them a dose of their own medicine and see how they feel about it?

WITH such terrible things happening at Heeley Farm, could they not put cameras up or have security on?

If they cannot afford it how about a Lottery grant or Sheffield businesses paying.
