Animal rights activists admit attack on grandmother
By COLIN FERNANDEZ, Daily Mail - More by this author » Last updated at 20:52pm on 3rd July 2006


Three animal rights activists launched a terrifying attack on a family, including a 75-year-old grandmother, for having a pro-hunting sticker on their car, a court heard yesterday.

Heather Nicholson, Natasha Avery and Daniel Wadham jumped out of their car while stuck in a traffic jam to spit, screamed abuse and banged on the windows of their victims.

At one stage they hit a 75-year-old grandmother and tried to open the car doors to drag her 21-year-old grandson into the street. It was only the intervention of outraged members of the public that halted the attack.

Avery and Nicholson, both 38, are founding members of the controversial group Stop Huntingdon Animal Cruelty (SHAC) which has instigated the hate campaign against companies involved in animal testing.

Together with Wadham, 19, they pleaded guilty to one charge of affray at Kingston Crown Court today.

Judge Nicholas Jones remanded Nicholson in custody and warned Avery and Wadham they could face jail when they are sentenced on July 21. The judge said: 'Custodial sentences appear to be merited in relation to these matters.'

The family who cannot be named for legal reasons to protect their safety were travelling in Richmond, south-west London during the attack on November 9 last year.

On the back of their Audi driven by the grandmother's daughter, Mrs A, in her mid-40s was a small sticker that said: 'Two working dogs, working people, work in hunting.'

The driver suddenly heard a bang on her window and a woman screaming: 'F+++ing scum, f+++ing perverts,' while Wadham was banging on the side of the car. One woman shouted: 'Get that sticker off your window.'

The 21-year-old shouted to his mother: 'Just drive,' to shake off the extremists. The traffic lights turned green and the family drove off but the extremists got back in their car to pursue.

Hate-filled rant

When both cars had to stop at the next set of traffic lights on the A316 the attack began again. Mrs A tried to lock all her doors, but was unable to, and Nicholson launched another hate-filled rant screaming: 'F+++ing perverts, f+++ing scum.'

Mrs A was 'in tears and shaking' as Avery shouted similar obscene abuse at the passenger window. Mrs Nicholson then reached in the passenger door to pull Mrs A's son out of the car by his legs - but he kicked to stop her.

When the 75-year-old put her left arm out to help her grandson Nicholson hit her arm and Nicholson and Wadham spat in the 21-year-old's face and on the passenger door.

Other motorists came to the rescue of the family with one driver shouting to the extremists: 'If you want to start, start on me,' before police arrived to arrest all three.

Jill Evans, defending Nicholson, said her client had committed 'a most unattractive offence' but it was not premeditated.

Nicholson currently in jail on remand was last year jailed for breaching an ASBO placed in January last year which banned her from 500 metres of Huntingdon Life Sciences laboratories in Cambridgeshire or Suffolk, although this breach was later overturned by the court of appeal. Both she and Avery have a long string of previous convictions mostly relating to public order offences and animal rights protests.

The court heard Wadham has no previous convictions.

The court ordered that the trio's exact addresses are not to be published for fear of reprisals.

SHAC, formed in 1999, claims not to condone violence although many of its activists have previous convictions for attacking employees of animal laboratories. With members in the UK, US, Germany and Italy, it has been linked to fire bomb attacks on lab workers.

It has been accused by the FBI of posting the names and addresses of scientists and investors in drug testing firms, who have subsequently been attacked by the terrorist group The Animal Liberation Front. Some observers describe SHAC's role as offering a public face to ALF's paramilitary style tactics.

Maybe Avery will end up in a cell with Bubba The Hunter.

A 21 year old man allowed himself to be pulled from a car by a 38 year old hippie woman? He should have stepped out and started a beat down or else get his man card revoked.

England went hysterical with their anti-hunting rampage mainly focused around fox hunting with hounds. Fox hunting was banned in the end. Just like firearms and their balls.

Actually you are over simplifying what happened in the regards of Fox hunting in Britain Littlebigd. The real reason that the anti fox hunters won was a small contingent of rabid ARA folk turned the fox hunt into a political CLASS fight between Blue Blood hunters and the so called lower classes. They made the fox hunt look like a blue blood sport so they could turn the average citizen into a non-supporter of the Blue Bloods. The class war ended badly for the blue bloods ,dog breeders, stables of horses and the economy that they thrived on. We suffer the same problem in our industry because the Anti Fur Trade folk use the "Rich FEMALE DOG Blue Blood" attack on our industry to. Don't ever become complacent and so sure of what attacks could mean on this continent. Lots of Urban folks with no money, no future and no land would willingly strike back at that Rich FEMALE DOG Fur Owner to. Not one of them would care that a industry with lots of jobs using a natural renewable resource would be a major loss to our environment & our Wildlife Management plans in rural North America.

What you said about class warfare is very true, Mira. From some of the AR pages I've looked at they make it sound like trapping is all about money and we are exploiting nature and making money hand over fist (they posted an old price list on one of their sites). They said Paul Dobbins is rich, greedy, and evil. Lol!

I debate the Anti movement a lot. According to them I am just about the richest greediest and most evil person in the world of animal use. There is no end to the hate mongering bigotry those folks throw at hunters, trappers, Farmers , and other Animal use venues. They actually hate all meat eaters when you question them hard enough. in that admission they willingly admit to hating 95% of the general population. In their pursuit to be better then other people they chose to destroy credibility of all animal use people so they can look like Saints beside 95% of the general population.
