Double Whammy

Guilty Assault Charge – Robert Tierney of the Derwent Hunt
Today, Robert Tierney –Field Master and long-time troublemaker of the Derwent Hunt –pleaded guilty in court. Caught on camera, he displayed his usual aggressive behaviour during one of the hunt’s typical days of fox-chasing and wildlife bothering.
He deliberately rode his horse up to our stationary sab bus and attempted to whip a female sab through the open window, clearly aiming to cause injury.
This wasn’t some heat-of-the-moment mistake—he knew exactly what he was doing. A red-faced, angry little man on a big horse, trying to show off in front of his entourage (mostly young female riders) by throwing his weight around. Classic Tierney. It’s the kind of behaviour we’ve sadly come to expect from someone who gets their kicks chasing innocent wildlife.
He’s now out of pocket by over a grand – £225 in victim surcharges, £300 to the Crown Prosecution Service, and a £562 fine. He pled guilty, no doubt to avoid the victim and witness taking the stand—because that would’ve made things even more damning for him.
And if that wasn’t enough for one week , Yesterday Mark Hamilton, (also Derwent hunt )was found guilty of assault.
A double whammy for the Derwent Hunt. Violence really does seem to be in their blood – whether it’s aimed at wildlife or people.
Hopefully Tierney will think twice before getting violent again – and maybe keep that foul mouth of his shut while he’s at it.
We’ll be seeing you next season, Tierney – catching every tantrum, every illegal trick and every slip-up.
Tick tock, Robert. Fox hunting’s days are numbered!
WHAT A PILLOCK, CAN’T UNDERSTAND WHY SCUM LIKE HIM DON’T GET SENT DOWN, WATCHING THE NEWS LATELY AND PEOPLE ARE GETTING SENT DOWN FOR LESS CRIMES THAN THIS, THESE BASTARDS ARE BREAKING THE LAW AND THE LAW SHOULD MAKE A SHOW OF THEM AND SEND THEM TO PRISON, FINES DON’T MEAN A THING TO THESE PARASITES.
