"06.01.2008, Highgate Rabbit Farm, Highgate, Normanby-by-Spital, Lincolnshire, UK.
During the midnight hours of 6th January 2008, A.L.F volunteers gained entry to a rabbit breeder who provides animals to suffer and die in the miserable vivisection industry. Customers of this breeder include HLS and several UK Universities.
A ventilation fan was forcibly removed to evade the alarm systems on the doors. Inside rabbits were lined in barren cages breathing in the stench of shit and urea, waiting to be tortured to death in animal testing labs. But tonight, the activists had a more compassionate fate for them. A total of 129 rabbits were loaded in friendship groups into bags and taken immediately to safety. Never will they have to know or experience an experimental facility or university lab. Some of the rabbits were visibly excited when they reached their new lives, playing in the straw and eating carrots happily.
We couldn't leave without saying a proper good bye! On site we found a quad bike with trailer plus a lawnmower. All tyres were popped, locks glued, expanding foam in the exhaust, and were paintstripped. Next, we found a large white van obviously used as part of the sickening business. We redecorated it with nice new paint work, paintstripper, glued locks, popped tyres, and expanding foam up the exhaust. We also found a rather posh sports car parked outside the house which also had a little makeover just like the van.

Give Ian a ring on [removed] , apparently his wife Penelope likes dirty phone calls. If not maybe Jonathan and Richard can convince Ian to make the right choice.
Phenoenex Company Secretary Mary Leech also got a visit. 'LEECH KILLS PUPPIES' and 'ALF' was painted in black on the end of her house, on clear view to all of her neighbours. This house was easy to find, as it was the only one with a huge CCTV camera. You might want to start watching that Leech.[Removed] is Leech's number.

An animal rights extremist who bombarded companies and individuals with threats, today saw her sentence lengthened to two years.
Deborah Morrison dispatched dozens of emails and letters - some containing white powder - during a five-year nationwide campaign. Most of the victims had or have connections with animal research organisations. Many of the messages were signed with the Animal Liberation Front's initials, ALF.
The 35-year-old, from Dorchester in Dorset, pleaded guilty to six charges of blackmail and one of attempted blackmail. She also admitted three charges of interference with a contractual relationship, so as to harm an animal research organisation, and two of attempted interference.
On 16 November she was jailed for eight months at Stafford Crown Court. Staffordshire Police appealed against the length of sentence which today, at the Court of Appeal in London, was increased to two years.
