⚠️PLEASE PLEASE RETWEET THE HELL OUT OF THIS KITTEN ABUSER 🚨 BEN MURKIN, ELY ⚠️KNOW HIS FACE⚠️ A sadistic animal abuser has avoided prison after inflicting catastrophic injuries on a kitten after throwing it at a wall, a door and down the stairs. Ben Murkin, of Mill Lane, Fordham, Ely, appeared at Cambridge Crown Court on March 6 to be sentenced in a prosecution brought forward by the RSPCA. On March 6, 2024, a veterinary practice was contacted by a family member who said Murkin's cat Whisper had fallen and was struggling to breathe. By the time they arrived at the practice with Whisper, the kitten had already passed away after being in immense pain and suffering. Whisper's death was reported to the RSPCA after concerns about the injuries. An independent post mortem found that Whisper had suffered injuries including a bruised head, a left eye haemorrhage, reddening and bruising of the tail area, and multiple injuries to limbs, consistent with a strong human grip. Murkin claimed the injuries occurred when he was carrying out CPR. The post mortem also found evidence of current and old rib fractures and a fracture on the lumber vertebrae. He had also ignored advice from the bet to bring the cat back on two occasions. These included after bringing in the kitten for limping after a supposed fall in December 2023 and in February 2024 after treatment for a fractured tooth and red gums. Some of the specific acts of cruelty detailed in court included kicking Whisper against a wall, picking her up by the tail and throwing her down the stairs, and throwing Whisper against the door. The expert vet concluded in their report: “It is my expert opinion that clearly Whisper suffered as a result of the injuries she sustained however they were caused. She sustained multiple and severe injuries both to her lip and upper canine, to her ribs on the right hand side and then to her face, chest and abdomen in the final incident. “All of these will have caused her to suffer pain and distress. The final set of injuries the duration of the suffering will only have lasted as long as she remained conscious which is likely to have been a short period of time. “It is my expert opinion that the injuries sustained by Whisper were the result of deliberate and intentional trauma inflicted upon her by a person with the intention of her causing her serious harm and suffering.” The court heard he got Whisper with his girlfriend as emotional support as he was lonely. When the relationship ended, he started to resent the cat. The judge described Murkin's actions as an "extraordinary response". The judge noted this had been "astonishing cruelty to an animal" and said Murkin had committed other acts of physical violence on the cat. The offence was placed in the highest category because the injuries were "prolonged and repeated, inflicted with significant force, and resulted in death". Murkin had pleaded guilty to two counts of causing unnecessary suffering to Whisper by inflicting trauma causing injury and for failing to provide prompt veterinary treatment, in respect of the injury to the cat’s gums and fractured canine tooth. He was given a 22-month prison sentenced that has been suspended for 18 months. He has been ordered to carry out 240 hours of unpaid work and 20 Rehabilitation Activity Requirement days. He has been banned for keeping all animals for life and was ordered to pay £500 court costs and £187 victim surcharge. RSPCA Inspector Emily Astillberry said: "The actions in this case were of astonishing cruelty to a defenceless animal. It is heart-breaking to hear what Whisper - this small ragdoll kitten - had to endure such cruel and sustained suffering. She was still so young when she died and had to endure such pain and suffering during this short life.”

This is MMA fighter Sean McInnes. When Anne Marie Boyle asked him to leave her alone, he punched her in the face so hard that he broke her cheekbone and her eye socket, knocked her unconscious, and left her with a life-altering brain injury. He was given less than two years behind bars. It would be a real shame if this post was widely circulated and impacted his career in a negative way.

@DreyfusJames Infuriating isn’t it?😡

Every. Single. Time. I. Travel. By. Train. Every. Single. F**king. Time.

@DreyfusJames You see, this is why I love you, ‘fed up with’, not fed up of’! Such joy to read.😉🤗

I’m not sure anyone is “mad”. “Bored to tears & fed up to the back teeth with”, yes. “Mad”?…no… As you can see by the factual, calm example you, yourself, posted. Can you find the fury? I can’t, for the life of me… PS. Drag queens are ‘trans’ now, are they? I see… 🤔

@DreyfusJames 😂

To those people saying I “breached an individual’s right to privacy” by posting a photo of someone’s dirty shoes up on a train seat, I say this… Identify the individual. Should be easy, yes? I mean those pumps positively scream Tanya Flump from 117a Terracotta Avenue, Rhyl…

As far away from it as possible…

Hello Wayne, we just want to make sure you know that the common vivisectors’ claim, that ‘animal experiments led to the breakthrough use of insulin, to treat diabetes’ - which you quote in one of your recent blogs - is absolutely false. Our science team has addressed this claim in detail, because in truth, animal experiments misled researchers to believe diabetes was a disease of the liver, not the pancreas. You can read our science experts’ analysis of the history of insulin, in animal experimentation, here: forlifeonearth.org/wp-content/upl… And you can buy the best, most accessible FAQs science book, on the watertight scientific arguments against claiming animals have predictive value for humans, at this link: amazon.co.uk/FAQs-About-Ani… We can only imagine how busy you are !!! But that claim about insulin is one of the most common ways animal experimenters mislead the public into believing: “it’s this dog, or your child” - a now proven, totally false choice. We’re supporting 82 @UKParliament MPs, who are calling for the top #EDM187 science hearing, judged by independent experts from the relevant science fields, to stop these false claims about human medicine which maintain the funding of horrific animal experiments. You can access a top science lecture on this subject, in the tweet below! May we add: please don’t hesitate to get in touch if our science experts can help you, as they do us, in any way. We don’t have the science expertise, but they do! Just to add too, that we were introduced to our science experts by Dr Jane Goodall, who is a huge fan of theirs. Here’s Jane’s film on their achievements and expertise: x.com/betsyambassado… Thank you so much, for all your inspiration and time. @rickygervais @PeterEgan6 @AnimalRising @AnimalAid @Animallawyersuk @ALAWAnimalLaw #EvidenceBased #Science #Medicine #Animals #Dogs #Cats #FDA #EndAnimalTesting

Hi @Keir_Starmer What happened to “Labour would freeze your council tax”? Or “Not a penny more on your council tax…No ifs, no buts”? Many people across the country are opening letters for higher council tax bills. Labour deserve the local election annihilation coming in May.
