I just did.....that is so sad and it appears that justice won't be served.
I guess since it was mentioned he used it for business purposes makes
it all ok on his part in the neglect and abuse of the animal.

They would hang any of us out to dry.

I remember being a little kid and watching him on WWF and thinking he was so cool with that snake. Then i grew up, got one of my own, and saw him in a documentary. Seeing him again and the way he just threw it around made me sick. It's truly sad when someone lets themselves go but when they abuse animals that depend on them it's truly sick.

I just saw this update.... http://icberkshire.icnetwork.co.uk/0...name_page.html

A BINFIELD reptile breeder has spoken of his relief after being found innocent of causing cruelty to an animal.

Kevin Wicks, 31, of Statham Court, was cleared at St Albans Magistrates last week.

The charge related to his alleged provision of a Burmese python to former American WWF wrestler Jake the Snake Roberts.

Animal welfare inspectors had discovered the python living in poor conditions at wrestler Roberts' home.

The court found that Roberts was responsible for the care of the snake and it was he who had inadequately cared for it, resulting in its very poor condition.

I've been biting my tongue on this post for a while cuz each time I proof read my post it sounded way to violent.

Even in the day he was performing, i though he was a turd. He showed no respect for the animal even when he did suposedly care for it. Waving it around like it was a stuffed toy. I was amazed no one ever got bit for how rough it was handled.

Would LOVE to get him in a squared circle, or maybe a cage match
I gaurantee he wouldn't walk out after that display.

The snake died after being seized by RSPCA inspectors.
Maybe they killed it. I suspect it had been under nourished for years. My Burm went 7 months without eating & is fat.
