What will it be do you think, an asbo, suspened sentence, 3 months 6 months, lets face it when you deliberately steal gates with the chance of 11 horses getting out onto a road, it's got to be attempted murder, it's lucky no car drivers were killed.

Whether they were born in this country or not the chances of any form of punishment are very slim. I can't imagine the police are going to spend much time investigating either. It will be one of those things that if who ever did it does get caught it will be by chance linking the crime to another and if they end up in our already overcrowed jails, will be very well looked after.
 
I would say from a personal angle that there really isn't much the Police can do, so no point saying they 'won't, more a case of they 'can't.. they feel it as much as everyone else. However, if I got my hands on the thieving pieces of gooseturd, they wouldn't have much left to remove gates with.
 
This is the police log of the accident report and if anyone can assist the police then the contact details are to be found at the bottom of the log.

ROAD TRAFFIC COLLISION - OPERATIONS SUPPORT DIVISION (XA) - LOG 0117 /
20.09.09
At 0052 hours on Sunday 20th September 2009, the first of numerous
reports were received of a multi - vehicle Road Traffic Collision, on the
A1 south, three miles south of Ferrybridge Services. Resources from the
Motorway unit attended the scene, and a full closure of the A1 southbound
carriageway was implemented at Darrington. It was established that three
horses had been struck and killed on a blind corner of the A1. A fourth
horse was located in a nearby field, badly injured and was put down by a
local vet. Five vehicles were involved in the incident, and nine people
received minor injuries. Enquiries established an Equestrian Centre
situated within North Yorkshire's area and about one mile from the RTC
had been broken into, resulting in the horses being in the carriageway.
The road remained closed for a number of hours pending recovery of the
horses and damaged vehicles. Investigations into the incident are ongoing
by the Motorway Unit. North Yorkshire police are conducting enquiries
into the break in at the Equestrian centre.

FURTHER INFORMATION

The motorway incident was in West Yorkshires force area but the attempt
break in occurred just out of our borders and was in North Yorkshire Police
force area, so I only have limited information.

10 horses missing/stolen from local Equestrian Centre. Secure gates to the
yard had been removed using oxyacetylene / welding type device.

4 of the horses were killed as a result. It is not known if the horses were
stolen and the thieves changes their mind/encountered problems? Or if the
attempt theft went wrong and the horses broke lose? Or if the horses were
let out in an attempt to take equipment?

Either way, this is a despicable and very very sad chain of events leading
to the sad loss of 4 horses. I have no information of the
welfare/whereabouts of the other horses at this stage.

These people are going to rural areas fully equipped and intent on causing
chaos to make a few quid.

PLEASE be vigilant. Protect your horses. Think about security. Security
mark animals and tack. Keep a note of people and/or vehicles acting
suspiciously in the area. Don't make it easy for them.

I'm speaking from experience too, the police won't be spending much time investigating because there isn't much to go on thats why I said if they do catch the b*****ds it will be by chance linking one crime to another, or if someone comes forward
