JACKIE HUNT HORSE CRUELTY IN WARRINGTON: WARRINGTON GUARDIAN

In a recent case that has shocked animal welfare advocates in Warrington, Jackie Louise Hunt, also known as Jackie Wright, was found guilty of multiple charges related to the cruel treatment of three horses. Born around 1984 and residing on Marsh Street in the Padgate area of Warrington, Hunt faced serious allegations concerning her neglect and mistreatment of these animals.

Hunt pleaded guilty to five counts under the Animal Welfare Act, which highlighted her failure to properly care for the horses under her responsibility. The charges specifically included her neglect in investigating and addressing the underlying causes of the poor health and condition of two of the horses. Despite evident signs of suffering, she did not take appropriate steps to improve their welfare or provide necessary shelter to protect them from the elements and potential harm.

Furthermore, Hunt admitted to neglecting the dietary needs of a third horse, failing to ensure it received a suitable and nutritious diet. She also neglected to protect this animal from pain, injury, suffering, or disease, which are fundamental responsibilities of animal caretakers. Her actions, or lack thereof, demonstrated a blatant disregard for the well-being of the horses entrusted to her care.

As part of her sentencing, Hunt was ordered to pay a fine of £300. Additionally, she received a five-year ban from owning or keeping any horses, a measure intended to prevent further neglect or abuse of equine animals in her custody. The case has garnered attention in Warrington, highlighting the importance of animal welfare laws and the consequences of neglect.

Update as of August 2021 indicates that Jackie Hunt now resides at Langton Green, Woolston, Warrington, with the postal code WA1 4BU, suggesting she remains within the Warrington area despite her legal restrictions.
