You cannot compel the accused to "tell their side" or "testify against them self" in a criminal trial. Generally it is better if they don't unless there is something that would mitigate the situation like diminished mental capacity. I'm having a problem making sense of the story in regards to what motivated the perp. to do this to the horse even if the client did something terrible to him, why take it out on the horse?
common sense says the farrier pulled the shoes , quick easy , how the hell is he going to " cut " the shoes off ? come on we all know what the rspca are like , and together with an over emotional female owner verdict of events , the frc power addiction of non farrier superiority over farriers the chap was always going to get an over reaction to what probably actually occured
Pardon the ignorance, but what exactly does "cutting the shoes off" mean ? What exactly did this man do ?
From the photo, it appears he ripped them away from the hoof. However it was done it looks unprofessional and mean spirited. OTOH, I've seen horses do much the same thing all of their own accord. But he should have know better. ymmv.
