Target: George Eustice, Minister of Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs
Goal: Ensure woman who pled guilty to animal cruelty charges receives fitting punishment.
A woman in south Wales apparently made a habit of cruelly harassing and abusing her pet marmoset. A video shows Vicki Holland trying to force-feed the monkey cocaine and attempting to flush him down a toilet while he clings to it. She can also be heard yelling profanities at him. When the case was brought before the court, additional phone evidence was provided regarding further incidents with the monkey that were described as “very disturbing.”
Holland pled guilty to the charges. Despite her admission of guilt, the court handed down a meager twelve-week jail sentence, and then suspended the sentence. Holland will likely not serve a day in jail. Reportedly, she had previously received a suspended sentence for possession and distribution of cocaine.
This case appears to be a clear violation of the region’s Animal Welfare Act, but the tougher penalties supposedly levied for violations were completely absent. Sign the petition below to urge the department responsible for enforcing this law to launch a deeper investigation into this troubling case.
PETITION LETTER:
Dear Minister Eustice,
When it replaced a previous animal cruelty law, the Animal Welfare Act was heralded as a needed reform that could prevent the “unnecessary suffering” of animals. A conviction is supposed to result when pain or suffering is inflicted cruelly and without good reason. Debate may result about what specific incidents meet this criteria, however, if a woman feeds her pet animal cocaine and attempts to flush him down the toilet, no rational person would dispute that the guilty party violated her duty of care and violated the very principles of the act.
Such an incident is not theoretical. It took place recently in south Wales, and it involved a pet marmoset. Worse yet, the admitted abuser apparently had a previous criminal record and a phone reportedly filled with videos of other abusive content. Most troubling of all is the fact that this suspect received a suspended sentence as supposed punishment. The Animal Welfare Act clearly states that you may intervene in matters if local authorities and legalities do not do their job.
Please utilize this power to investigate the case of Vicki Holland and ensure true justice is served.
Sincerely,
[Your Name Here]

Hang this filthy piece of trash.
Hope she od’s on her coke and becomes a paralyzed & abused, piece of shit that she is.
Hope poor Monkey is ok xx
Agree! I hope she goes to jail for life and gets the shit beat out of her on a daily basis.
Totally agree this vile piece of shit deserves what’s she did to this poor innocent
Torltally agree with other comments on this site this vile “ human “ deserves to feel the same fear torture and abuse she inflicted on this poor innocent
I would never get tired of punching this slag in the mouth
Can I watch?! I would never get tired of seeing that…
hope some one gives it to her but good
OK what happened to the monkey???
She is safe now thankfully… “The marmoset was terrified when she was taken in by the sanctuary in Dorset, with staff helping the tiny mammal to recover…”
“Team Leader of Small Monkeys, who rehabilitated the abused pet, Steph Sawyer, said: “Rehabilitating Milly has been a long process. I have never seen such a terrified marmoset”

What’s with the suspended sentence? Is the judge on cocaine too?
This horrible woman deserves more than a slap on the wrist for her cruelty. A suspended sentence is no deterrent. Her actions concerning the monkey and her videos of cruelty on her phone should have been enough evidence that a year or more in jail should have been the minimum. What a failure of the judge on his part. This POS woman needs to be held accountable. I also would like to know the outcome and condition of the poor monkey.
The marmoset was subsequently found and signed into the care of the RSPCA, before being transferred to specialist primate experts at Monkey World in Dorset for ongoing care.
Thts a brilliant ending. Monkey world is one of the most amazing places in the country
This judge needs his head examined and the stupid woman needs to be locked up for a long time. Letting people off the hook for animal abuse likely will think it is OK to do it again. So tired of horrible people getting away with cruelty.
What a nasty piece of shit this bitch is…throw her ass in jail and ban her from ever owning animals ever again…let her rot in jail
I truely hope this poor baby is in monkey world In Dorset As now it will be loved and safe to be a monkey.
As for the bitch I couldn’t stomach to see what else she done… the look of fear in his face was heart wrenching, poor poor thing… I’d for starters flush her head everyday down a toilet and not a clean one at that either, after a good kicking I’d find a wild troop of chimps n leave her with them for punishment… marmots are to teeny fir that, fucking bitch!!!!
WTF!!!?
Did they take the animal away from her? She’ll kill it eventually. There’s no law enforcement anywhere today. Sick, perverted, twisted psychos are running amuck, torturing animals and not getting punished. As long as they can get away with it, they’ll continue. Law enforcement is impotent at best. Other police officers just shoot animals, rather than try to save them. Either way, animals lose in the end.
I can’t say what I would do to this POS, caz its criminal….she needs extreme punishment, and more than a jail sentence.
SUSPENDED SENTENCE – THE JUDGE WHO HANDED DOWN THIS SENTENCE NEEDS TO BE DISMISSED THIS IS A CASE OF WANTON AND DELIBERATE ANIMAL ABUSE. FURTHERMORE THIS COURT HAS CONDONED THIS KIND OF TORTURE BY HANDING DOWN NO MORE THAN A LIGHT SLAP ON THE WRIST. Dear Minister Eustice – MAKE THE PUNISHMENT A REAL PUNISHMENT AND FORBID THIS EVIL HUMAN FROM EVER OWNING OR GOING NEAR ANIMALS FOR LIFE PUNISH THIS EVIL HUMAN FOR TORTURE AND ABUSE, DO NOT LET HER THINK SHE CAN JUST WALK AWAY FROM THE ABUSE OF THIS INNOCENT AND TINY CREATURE
I cant believe the UK justice system sometimes we sre supposed to be a nation of animal lovers. Let’s show this by giving this woman a proper prison sentence in years not months, but before doing so, feed if cocsine and shove her head down the toilet and whilst we’re at it, perhaps the judge in this case deserves the same!
https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9605747/Mother-hid-cocaine-childrens-Kinder-Eggs-ordered-pay-4k-drugs-racket.html
She abused a living being
She hid cocaine in her FOUR children’s kinder eggs
AND SHE IS STILL OUT OF JAIL.
The monkey is in the care of the RSPCA.
Who is taking care of her children??
The Judge should also be held accountable for giving this sadistic evil subhuman no time. She is a danger to all and the incompetent Judge should lose his/her seat!!!
Disgusting!
Hopefully they don’t give the monkey back. Someone needs to make sure her next dose of cocaine is laced with something deadly.
