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.
Ditto. There is no punishment too severe for these people.
That’s pretty much what I thought when I read this headline.
eh, it’s no different than what the animal ag industry does to billions of animals, namely pigs. Farrowing cages much?
A quick google suggests you’d get more time for fucking the monkey
I’m probably on some kind of list now
But that could also get you a job at the FBI.
I don’t think thats a REQUIREMENT now. Just allowed lol
Implying that you weren’t on that list before…
Yeah that’s not something I would’ve googled.
You’d get longer for pirating a movie…
Yep, I’m done.
Bring on the climate apocalypse/nuclear war. Humans don’t deserve to exist.
The trainwreck that is the Trump administration becomes easier if you view it as what it is, the fall of America.
Unless we all think that Wall Street’s open fraud, a soaring national debt, and soaring inflation are sustainable lol. Maybe we’ll get the nuclear apocalypse we all so deserve.
His cellmate: so what you’re in for?
This guy: well…
I wonder if they are below or above the chomos in the eyes of the average prisoner.
What is a chomo?
Prison slang for a child molester. They are the lowest rung and often get shanked for gang initiations and stuff.
People are blissfully unaware how few rights animals have and how common these type of problems are. Especially here in Asia animal rights are not existent to the point where there are many dark networks like this and people stealing pets for food etc. China in particularly is probably the worst place in the world to be a non human animal.
I used to write dark web scrapers for detecting fraud and shit you see there is absolutely insanity salvaged only by the fact that it’s incredible minority of people who are this deranged as in 0.00001% in grand scale of things.
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.”
That is a remarkably monkey-looking perpetrator
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.
is he just doing it for the love of the game or sum? why would you ever do that lmao
He did make some 💰. The article says the videos sold for hundred of pounds. So it was likely a lucrative hobby.
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.
He probably pled guilty and was really helpful or something.
He’ll be out in a year and a half
I was wondering the same thing
No room in prisons.
What the actual fuck?
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.
Aaaaaaaaaand that’s enough Internet for this year.
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
ไม่จริง
Fair enough, you would know better than me
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.
Yeah I didn’t read it all.
Thanks I will take a pass
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!
