She will face a 3 day trial next year for ‘pushing a staff member and the theft of a Crayfish’.

Emma Smart was released! on bail on the condition that she does not go back to the restaurant.

The Judge, Judge Fuller, appeared to think the whole issue was also bonkers, saying that the 3 day trial ‘would be for the theft of a lobster, wont it ?’

The Daily Mail loves to use terms such as ‘Animal Rights Activist’ in its reporting. As you can see from the above photo, she is simply a respected Marine Biologist lady, with a personal opinion, making a point by the saving of a life. Is saving lives now a crime we ask ?

WAV fully supports the actions taken by Emma; and also agree with Judge Fuller that this pathetic case is what it is – pathetic !!!
