The "sole carer" of two vulnerable women was served a biting remark by a crown court judge after his pets were left to die "extremely painful" deaths.
Paul Wynne, 42, appeared at Liverpool Crown Court this morning, Wednesday, June 28, after he had already pleaded guilty to three charges regarding the treatment of animals in his care. The neglect was so extreme that the decision was made in magistrates' court last month that the case should be heard at crown court.
The ECHO covered Wynne's appearance at court this morning where the prosecutor, appearing on behalf of the RSPCA, detailed the horrific details that resulted in the death of three dogs and four ferrets. You can read the ECHO's full report from the case here.
