Jon Ablewhite, John Smith Kerry Whitburn and Josephine Mayo were jailed for terms of between 3 and 12 years in May 2006, pleading guilty to blackmail following a campaign of intimidation against a farm that bred animals for scientific research.

The animal rights protestors had terrified local people with violent threats and lost national sympathy after they disinterred the corpse of Gladys Hammond, whose son owned the farm. Her remains have still not been recovered.
