CONVICTED (2020) | Lindsey Sim, born c. 1986, of Shearford Close, Barnstaple EX31 1AG – failed to care for three horses
Lindsey Sim, who was involved with shambolic horse welfare charity North Devon Equine Rescue alongside relative Ann Sim, has been banned from keeping horses for five years after vets found three of her animals had not been cared for properly.
Sim admitted charges relating to horses Kelly, Malibu and Blaze, following a prosecution by the RSPCA.
Vets found Kelly to be in an emaciated state as a result of insufficient nutrition and an untreated parasite infection.
Sim also admitted to failing to meet the needs of Blaze, a foal, and Malibu, a grey pony.
Sentencing: six rehabilitation days; total of £240 in fines, costs and charges. Banned from keeping horses for five years, but can appeal after three (expires August 2025).
Heart Breaking.
If You Cannot Keep Them.
Don’t Take Them In.
