| Red Rose Database
Slough Animal Abuser
In a disturbing incident that has shocked the local community, Micky Smith, a known resident of Sutton Lane, Langley, Slough, was involved in a brutal act of animal cruelty that took place in September 2013. Smith, who has a long history of criminal activity including burglary and violence, was caught on CCTV attempting to steal pedigree dogs from a property situated on the Elvendon Priory Estate in Goring. The footage clearly shows Smith approaching the kennel doors with malicious intent, clearly targeting the defenseless animals.
As one of the dogs, a five-year-old golden cocker spaniel, began to bark loudly in protest, Smith resorted to a shocking act of violence. He used a catapult to fire a rock directly at the dog's face, an attack that could have resulted in serious injury. Fortunately, the spaniel was not badly hurt, but the incident left a lasting impression of cruelty and disregard for animal welfare. The dog's owner described the attack as “absolutely disgusting,” expressing outrage and disappointment over the assault.
Smith's criminal record is extensive, with multiple convictions for burglary and violent offenses. His actions in this case have been widely condemned, with many calling for stricter penalties to serve as a deterrent to others who might commit similar acts. Despite the severity of his actions, Smith was ultimately fined £110, ordered to pay £100 in compensation to the dog's owner, along with a £20 victim surcharge and £85 in legal costs. The incident has sparked further concern about the safety of animals and the need for increased vigilance in communities like Slough, where vulnerable creatures are often targeted by individuals with a history of criminal behavior.
Additional details about Smith's other crimes can be found in reports from the Slough Observer, and footage of the CCTV attack is available on YouTube, highlighting the disturbing nature of this case and the ongoing issues of animal cruelty in the area.
