A British woman has been charged over a barbaric monkey torture ring where animals were burnt, blended alive and killed for sick sexual fetishes.
Holly LeGresley, 37, has been accused of publishing an obscene article and causing unnecessary suffering to a protected animal.
She has been charged alongside another woman, Adriana Orme, 55 for the same offence.
The pair, from Kidderminster and Upton-upon Severn, are set to appear at Worcester Magistrates’ Court on May 7.
West Mercia Police confirmed their charges are in relation to causing, consuming and facilitating the torture of monkeys.
It comes after the BBC exposed a twisted global monkey torture gang following a year-long investigation.
They discovered hundreds of sickos were paying Indonesians to kill infant long-tailed macaques on camera.
Unthinkable torture methods ranged from burning the monkeys alive, to putting them in blenders.
Michael Macartney, the suspected gang kingpin, has been charged in the US along with three others.
The self-professed “Torture King”, 50, operated using several global chat groups, on the criminally favoured encrypted messaging app Telegram.
The groups shared vile ideas for custom-made torture videos, which were then sent with payments to Indonesia.
