Do what now?!? Global monkey torture Network? That is not a sentence I ever imagined hearing.
I read about this whole thing a few years ago. It made me feel physically sick to my stomach.
Apparently there is a pipeline for animal abuse that starts with milder stuff on YouTube and then leads to more severe stuff off the beaten path - discord groups and stuff where monies are tortured and people request really tucked up things done to the monies. They are usually baby monkeys.
The people that torture the monkeys make money doing it. People pay them.
It’s so unbelievably tucked up
Good God. I could’ve gone my whole life without knowing that.
His cellmate: so what you’re in for?
This guy: well…
You’d get longer for pirating a movie…
is he just doing it for the love of the game or sum? why would you ever do that lmao
A quick google suggests you’d get more time for fucking the monkey
I’m probably on some kind of list now
Yeah that’s not something I would’ve googled.
But that could also get you a job at the FBI.
I don’t think thats a REQUIREMENT now. Just allowed lol
That is a remarkably monkey-looking perpetrator
You can be anything you want to be in this world!
“I want to be a ringleader of a global monkey torture network!”
…
You can be almost anything you want to be in this world!
He was sentenced to three years and three months in prison at Woolwich Crown Court.
“It is no exaggeration to say that as a lawyer or as a judge I have never encountered such a horrific case of animal abuse in my life,” Judge Christopher Grout told the court.
“There is a vile underground community who have a hatred of monkeys, particularly baby monkeys, and take pleasure in seeing such monkeys being tortured and killed.”
The judge said Poklek would be released after serving about a third of his prison sentence under the Sentencing Act 2026, and called for longer sentences for animal abuse, which currently has a five-year maximum.
He added: “If ever there was a case that demonstrates that the statutory maximum for animal cruelty is too low, this is it.”
What I don’t understand is how he got less than the maximum penalty. He had CSAM and drugs and they couldn’t even do the 5 years?
My wife watches a lot of those serial killer shows and while I totally think the prison industrial complex in the US is a complete shit show I’m still oftentimes in shock when it’s a case in another country and they get like one year in jail for murdering a family.
No room in prisons.
I was wondering the same thing
These laws need to be revisited. They paid for and shared hardcore CSAM/snuff, with a slim veil of it ackshually being against monkeys and not humans. The guy got caught with regular CSAM as well, women were quoted as projecting their hatred of humans on monkeys, and it can’t get more obvious. It’s not like these sickos are clever or something, but they found an awkwardly safe grey zone in law to feed their their vile fetishes in a relative safety. That obviously invites a very heated discussion of where and how to draw the line right, and I myself find that if human is to keep being treated differently, at least, there are lotsa details like it being systemic + organized + commercial + international enterprise - all should factor into the sentence, breaking the set limits of just 5 years max for what looks like running a literal baby crushing machine.
The laws are like this because animal agriculture is also a literal baby crushing machine so harsher laws would basically make animal agriculture impossible.
Couldn’t we at least make an exception for when the cruelty is for entertainment?
What the actual fuck?
I’m just going to pretend this is about the sketch The State did where Thomas Lennon is explaining on a talk show that he does “monkey torture.”
When asked what he has learned from his research his response is “they hate it.”
NSFL
He said Poklek and his acolytes paid for monkeys to be dismembered while alive and their body parts fed into a blender.
Primates were filmed being boiled alive, having their genitals and fingers cut off, being skewered with a kebab rod from top to tail and sexually abused.
Mother monkeys and their babies were slaughtered in front of each other by locals and one man was filmed cutting open the top of a skull and eating the animal’s brain.
As a long time “NSFL” content reader and watcher (efukt, rotten.com and liveleak - I watched it all):
I had to stop reading the article because I was getting physically ill - and I watched videos from the Yugoslavian war. This is truly vile shit and whoever was doing this or watching it should never be allowed to be around anything living ever again.
If you go “how bad it could be” it’s worse. Don’t read. Believe me.
Thanks I will take a pass
Yeah I didn’t read it all.
cutting open the top of a skull and eating the animal’s brain
My ex is from Thailand and told me that there are restaurants where you can eat live monkey brains. I guess there’s a hole in the table so they can put the animal below and the diners have access to the brains.
While I suppose this could’ve been a lie, it was not the only instance of horrific animal abuse I was told about so I’m inclined to think it is real.
Not saying this has never happened, but this is straight out of Faces of Death and was 100% fake
Aaaaaaaaaand that’s enough Internet for this year.
Stephen Miller is desperately looking for alternative sources of entertainment ever since his monkey torture feed has dried up.
He follows zionazi torturing Palestinians.
Maybe he hates monkeys so much because he’s reminded of them every time he looks in the mirror. A hate-filled mind rots the body.
Savage!
Before reading the comments I thought “Global Monkey Torture Network” was a funny turn of phrase. Great band name.
After reading the comments I’m just sad.
