Woman Jailed for Sharing Baby Monkey Torture Videos
Natalie Herron, a Scottish woman, received a two-year and three-month prison sentence for her involvement in a global online network that tortured baby macaques in Indonesia. Herron, who acted as a group administrator, shared hundreds of videos and images depicting horrific abuse, including crucifixion and being dipped in boiling oil. This is the first such sentencing in Scotland for cruelty committed abroad, stemming from a BBC investigation that exposed the network and its ringleader, Michael Macartney. Herron’s actions contributed to the immense suffering inflicted on the animals.
