The FSA welcomed this week’s successful prosecution of a slaughterhouse operative in Staffordshire. Mr Anthony Bagshaw was sentenced to 10 months imprisonment at Stafford Crown Court. The case, prosecuted with the Crown Prosecution Service, is a significant landmark for the FSA in the successful use of covert footage captured by an animal rights organisation as evidence in a criminal case.
