So, she has mental problems, and a clear disregard for living creatures.... This woman should not have children. Social services need to act now IMO.

An absolutely appalling story. But remember the woman has mental health problems. This is in no way an excuse for what she did but it must be taken into account. Doesn't lessen the severity of the crime, and it doesn't lessen the fact that she must be punished. But the vigilantes: No. And the boiling her herself: No.

Indeed, whilst mental health problems seem to be the 'norm' now when someone wants to disregard responciability for a crime, she does seem to be on the mental side of things.

It doesn't seem to be done in a moment of madness and then regretted, as she boasted to her husband, and showed him the body.

She should be mentally asessed, if shes deemed to be unstable, then she should have relavent help in a mental hospital. Her children should be looked after by her husband, as I assume it was him who alerted authorities of what she did?

But if she is found to be mentally stable, she should get life imprisonment, as someone who would do something like this to an animal seems very likely to do it to a person.

Interesting point you have there...

Awful. The caption under the first picture, "Thacker has mental health problems, the court heard", wasn't really necessary - looks a bit of a psycho.

This is very true it has been proved that those who abused, tormented and tortured pets did later on do it to humans..

She should be sent to a mental hospital with instructions to not be released until she can be trusted in the civilised world.. If I were her husband I would sell up and change my name and move away so the children never have contact with her again for their sanity..

Can you imagine just what this could do to a 6yr old the trauma the school staff would have to deal with if they was attached to the cat. The 16yr old would handle it a little better but life would be hell at school as the children would be constantly reminding her of what her mother did.

I can't understand why poeple do this but my thoughts are for the children who could be mental scared by this experience. I do feel social services should stop her from having anymore contact with this family.
