Three people appeared in court last week charged with a number of offences in relation to alleged peregrine theft in the Scottish Borders.
Serving police officer WPC Suzanne Hall, 43, part-time gamekeeper Timothy Hall, 46, and their 21-year-old son, Lewis Hall, all from Lamberton Holdings in Berwick-upon-Tweed. They are accused of breaching The Control of Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) Enforcement Regulations and also face two charges under the Wildlife & Countryside Act 1981 by being in possession of protected birds and eggs of wild bird, in this case, peregrines.
Timothy Hall also faces further charges of two firearms certificate offences and a culpable and reckless conduct offence.
This case relates to a joint Scottish SPCA and Police Scotland raid on the family home at Lamberton Holdings in Berwick-upon-Tweed in May 2021 as part of an on-going investigation into allegations of serious organised crime.
It is understood a search warrant was executed and officers seized a number of peregrine falcon chicks and eggs from the property.
All three defendants made no plea at this latest court hearing and the case was continued for further examination. They were granted bail by Sheriff Peter Paterson.
I hope this Suzanne Hall is sacked from the police it is scum like her that give the police a bad name she is a disgrace all 3 of these parasites should go to prison for a long time.
