The Attorney General has REJECTED calls by Green Future News, Sir Ranulph Fiennes and thousands of others to review the soft sentences given to hunt thugs who viciously attacked 2 wildlife crime investigators, leaving one with a broken neck. https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-england-leicestershire-44847607 Much loved celebrities including Bill Oddie and Downton Abbey star Peter Egan were among those who signed a petition demanding that Geoffrey Cox, the government’s top lawyer, use his powers to refer the case to the court of appeal under the unduly lenient sentences scheme. https://www.thepetitionsite.com/en-gb/725/797/337/jail-hunt-thugs-now/ Sir Ranulph Fiennes and Eduardo Goncalves - Editor of Green Future News - have issued a statement strongly condemning the Attorney General’s decision. They also announced the launch of a crowdfunding campaign to raise money for a reward for information leading to the identification and successful prosecution of the 4 other masked hunt thugs who took part in the attack.
