Like many on here I found the tragic death of Jordan Banks traumatic. I'm sure many people not even related to or connected to the lovely little man have struggled to come to terms with this terrible event. The world is so unfair at times. So God bless Jordan and strength to his family.
What I find so unfair is that this innocent family and so many others have been hit by tragedy, yet so many amazing people are doing all they can to help those in need, either through their work or because they feel the need to help. Then I read a story like the one in the Gazette about the disgusting woman who I'm happy to name as Natasha Ivy Jolly. She moved house from Grasmere Road, but before leaving she locked her little tan terrier in a cupboard. The poor dog had no light, no food, no bedding, no friend and no hope of rescue. For weeks or maybe months the terrier suffered terribly, ate its own faeces and plastic clothes tags and anything else it could before dying in terrible pain, in the dark, alone and in despair. Meanwhile, the horrible woman moved to St Chad's Road and carried on her life as normal, no doubt not giving the suffering animal a second thought. After the smell of the rotting corpse alerted neighbours, a post mortem was carried out on the dog which was just skin and bones. Jolly was given a suspended prison sentence and told to pay £150 costs. So, once again a nothing punishment.
This kind of thing makes me so angry. Cruelty is such an evil and pointless trait and I find cruelty to children and animals who can't fight back so upsetting. I'm sure animal lovers like myself struggle to understand the minds of people like Jolly. I hope she lives and learns what an evil thing she's done.
