Queensland RSPCA & Anna Bligh Prosecutes for Profits

Anna Bligh is now funding her Administration by prosecuting for profit which is now firmly entrenched . Every person - fisherman, farmer, small business owners should be terrified as this Policy can take your stock, homes, boats, trucks, health, safety, security, freedom, everything imaginable from YOU - especially your right to litigate in the Courts for compensation . This is real and based on actual facts most of it was proven using 3rd party unbiased witnesses and proving the lies of RSPCA witnesses with their own evidence and their sworn statements that what they claimed cannot possibly be true. Dr Rick Symond the Bligh Goverment Animal Welfare Manager Qld and Mandy Symond his spouse a lawyer with RSPCA are both highly active members of Voiceless.

Anna Bligh has "rubber stamped" RSPCA to prosecute for profit to fund their administration of the Animal Care and Protection Act for Anna Bligh's Government. Under Anna Bligh's Labor Government, RSPCA have the supreme powers of Parliament and are untouchable. All pets seized by RSPCA are formally forfeited to RSPCA for RSPCA profit. 

Anna Bligh's Government now has another contract with RSPCA refined to cover blatant funding by Government of $14/day paid for every dog seized. Announcement of this was by Dr Rick Symond BaVS. RSPCA is now working with Shire Councils and continue to do what they did to Geraldine Robertson to other breeders with a more refined approach i.e. gives the victim or target 14 days notice of a compliance order and return on the 15 day not to inspect if the direction was carried out but armed with a warrant to seize all dogs. The discussions overlooked (most discussions were deleted by RSPCA) in the electronic voice tape of the inspectors at Geraldine' Robertson seizure confirmed their current actions. 

The Power of RSPCA is shown in the courts and in the media where RSPCA lies and heresay evidence are facts and provable lies assured as will be taken into consideration in the courts but given a big miss if not already deleted. Judges, magistrates and clerks of courts should not be allowed to have access to enable tampering of the recordings. The alleged audit and security control is really non existing. It would pay to hire a short hand recorder for the courts if you ever need to attend as the victim or defendant or applicant for your own safety. Signs all over the courts advices you are not allowed to electronically tape proceedings. You do not need to wonder why anymore.

On the 2 Oct 2009 Geraldine Robertson is in the Brisbane Supreme Court - Court of Appeal to argue why her Statement of Claim for damages should not have been struck out. All interested people should attend this open court and hearing to see it for yourself.  According to the laws and cases tested before the courts, the Claim should not be struck out, but it was.   

Annette Barrell, who so bravely supported Geraldine Robertson, has been very ill from stress from harassment by RSPCA who caused her to make the ultimate decision over her dogs.

Geraldine Robertson's witness, Annette Barrell had 30 valuable and in high demand pedigreed teacup poodles, she had bred for the past 20+ years. After a visit from RSPCA Inspector Travis Cooper she feared RSPCA was coming with a warrant to seize all her dogs. To avoid losing her home and everything from the prosecution, she had most of her poodles euthanased and others were re-homed. Disposing of her top quality dogs was the cheapest option, the alternative was to be attacked like Geraldine Robertson was.  

Yes RSPCA Inspector Travis Cooper did attend with a warrant on the 15 Sept 2009 to seize all Annette Barrell's healthy dogs.  RSPCA are doing it again but with deadly blatant precision. NOTE: Wondai, South Burnett seizure of 260 healthy breeding dogs, plus others. Anna Bligh has rubber stamped RSPCA's prosecutions for profit.

Geraldine Robertson expects RSPCA to again come to her property and again seize property including her computer system and legal files to again ambush her ongoing legal cases in Court. RSPCA did precisely this on the 22 Feb 2008. This is highly possible as Bligh's Government is giving RSPCA their total support to prosecute for profit.  

Geraldine Robertson cannot forget and it will always haunt her, the atrocious behaviour of the RSPCA Inspectors on 9 January 2008, who chocked her sweet innocent poodles with tight martingale leads until the dog's eyes blanked out and tongues turned blue whilst they were dragged out to be shove into an 8 dog trailer and 2 Shire Council vehicles all her 104 dogs included many pregnant bitches on 9 January 2008. She saw them jammed in shivering, vomiting, drooling, defeacating and urinating out of pure fear. They could not moved jammed in together, standard and toy poodles.

Videos footages taken illegally by trespassers from  9.27am to 4.40pm became less than 30 minutes of actual and mostly fabricated evidence with malicious lies were released to the medias. Eight (8) poodles were sold immediately to a member of the Poodle Club of Qld Inc after vet check on arrival to RSPCA shelter at Fairfield. Forty (40) poodles were shipped out to 3 locations north of Brisbane. Poodle Club members were waiting to clip the poodles and film footages were released from about 10 January 2008 to all media and published with vicious lies provided by RSPCA.

The vicious postings on internet forums are posted by RSPCA and Voiceless employees, volunteers and supporters. These postings are designed to incite violence e.g. "beat her to death". 

Professional staff of RSPCA i.e. Veterinarians, Lawyers were proven liars in the Brisbane Magistrate Court. Read it yourself their 99.99% correct vet records. Anthony J Deane (Clayton Utz) at the witness box saying......"it may incriminate myself", and negotiating with Geraldine Robertson's lawyers to surrender all her dogs without prosecution for her. RSPCA did not have the authority to negotiate at all. The Government controls the practicing Certificates of all Veterinarians and provides assistance to farmers with Dr Rick Symond as Animal Welfare Manager? What chances do farmers have for a fair go?

Next Court Dates - all welcome, it is open Court.  

1.   Monday 21 September at 9:00am in the Beenleigh District Court.  Appeal against 2 x penalties and Guilty findings for making an application to have her kennel records returned to her.

RSPCA Prosecuted Geraldine Robertson for the following profits: 

a.    RSPCA created a media event damnifying Geraldine Robertson and conducted a “Save the Poodles” campaign and received donations estimated at $2million.

b.   RSPCA  invoiced Geraldine Robertson $253,999.46 for the "care" of her dogs for three months. It has now been 21 months with the total bill estimated at $1million +++.

Geraldine Robertson received telephone calls informing her that her best breeding stock numbering 49 rare and extremely valuable (irreplaceable) pedigreed Standard and Toy poodles (pregnant bitches, stud dogs and adolescents) were shipped out immediately to four (4) locations. Value of all her pedigreed poodles is immeasurable .

d.   Geraldine Robertson has been told and verily believes that all those people who purchased Geraldine Robertson ’s dogs (called “fostered”) have been told from on or about the 20 July 2009 by RSPCA, that they can now keep those dogs. This is contrary to the Animal Care and Protection Act 2001 as the Decision of the Brisbane Magistrates Court is being appealed. Geraldine Robertson verily believes she has lost her dogs forever to RSPCA ’s profit motive.

e.   RSPCA  planned to obtain a fine plus their legal fees of some $300,000+++. (reference: Ruth Downey) by charging Geraldine Robertson with 149 criminal charges of animal cruelty and breach of duty of care for 109 dogs..

f.   RSPCA had prepared another major fund raising campaign on Geraldine Robertson with their RSPCA Animal Rescue Television show to be shown when the legal processes had finished. These DVDs were summoned to Beenleigh Magistrate Court. Another large sum in donations for RSPCA and another massive attack from the public with death threats etc all over again for Geraldine Robertson . 

g.   RSPCA  used the Animal Care and Protection Act to plunder Geraldine Robertson ’s records and personal property including much expensive jewellery, antiques, cash and much more total value about $180,000. 

h.   RSPCA intent upon profiting by taking everything from Geraldine Robertson , her home, her valuable personal property, her income, her reputation, her health, her right to a fair hearing in the Courts – everything.

    RSPCA,  has taken the following from Geraldine Robertson,

a.  Geraldine Robertson had her world Famous Pedigreed Neiger Poodles taken from her. Geraldine Robertson’s dogs had twenty plus years of selective breeding with rare irreplaceable imported lineage, bred for temperament, depth of colour, sound genetic health and conformity to the Breed Standard. Geraldine Robertson has been exporting these dogs to the world mainly to increase the gene pool since 1988. In the eighteen months prior to seizure she had exported approximately 200 dogs and had orders for more to be exported some being for puppies. The value of the pedigreed dogs seized were irreplaceable and invaluable. 

     These dogs were sold to people who were "too caring" to pay the market price for these dogs and recruited by RSPCA to join in the defaming of Geraldine in order to keep her healthy dogs. 

b.  all her customers’ pedigreed dogs taken from her - from them also.

c.  Geraldine Robertson specialised in overseas shipping of pedigreed dogs. She had all her shipping customers’ pedigreed dogs on consignment taken from her.

d.  Geraldine Robertson’s loves of her life, her dogs that she so loved and devoted her past 20 years to selective breeding were taken from her.  

e.  The customers that loved and respected her and her dogs. Most of these customers have abandoned her.

f.   Geraldine Robertson has had her good reputation and respect from 20 years of breeding the best quality Pedigreed Poodles taken from her.

g.   Prior to owning the kennels Geraldine Robertson was for 20 years in professional employment as a qualified Accountant, Financial Analyst, Taxation and Audit both in the private and public sectors. Her established good reputation was taken from her,

h.   Geraldine Robertson had her Pedigreed Poodle export business and its income taken from her.

i.    Geraldine Robertson had her export shipping business on consignment, and its income, taken from her.

j.   Geraldine Robertson had her boarding Kennel business, and its income, and goodwill taken from her. Under threat of further raids from RSPCA Geraldine Robertson feels she cannot conduct this business anymore.

k.  Geraldine Robertson had her valued privacy taken from her. Her affairs were made public in Television news, in newspapers and on the Internet. Geraldine Robertson regularly receives calls from people wanting to inspect her property and kennels. Neighbours get requests from Television News reporters wanting to use their property to film Geraldine Robertson’s property. Neighbours were recruited to spy on Geraldine Robertson by RSPCA.

l.   Geraldine Robertson has had her freedom taken from her. The many months of threatening and abusive telephone calls, the nasty letters, the garbage dumped on her drive way and people coming to her property and abusing and assaulting her made her fearful living in her own home. Living in fear she was unable to have her lights on or watch Television at night for fear someone would come to her home and carry out their threats. This fear lasted for 7 months till she managed to persuade a friend to live with her. Geraldine Robertson is still fearful of being on her own in her own home.

m. Geraldine Robertson had her pleasures taken from her. She was unable to visit her local Club or go out in public by herself as people there had come up to her and abused her.

n.  Geraldine Robertson had the convenience of shopping by herself taken from her. She was fearful because she had members of public come up to her and abuse her.

o.  Geraldine Robertson had her emotional well being taken from her. She regularly saw and was alerted to comments made about her on Internet web sites and forums and in the media.

p.  Geraldine Robertson had her good mental and physical health taken from her. The stress, distress, the fear and terror she has experienced and still experiences has taken a toll on her health. Geraldine Robertson had to seek help and medication provided by her doctors. 

q.  Geraldine Robertson had her ability to feel safe in her own home taken from her. She is regularly woken in terror by nightmares of what had happened, is happening to her beloved poodles and people coming into her home to cause her further harm. It has been a very long 20 months since they were "legally" stolen from her by RSPCA fully supported by the Labor Government. A "disgusting act of malicious greed" according to Geraldine Robertson. She will never give up, until "Justice is served".

r.   On the 22 February 2008 RSPCA came with a Warrant and seized her records and other personal effects including jewellery, her wedding ring, cash, antiques, computer system, legal correspondence with her then solicitors, and other personal property. Geraldine Robertson was oppressed and intimidated by RSPCA.

s.  Geraldine Robertson has and is suffering hopelessness from the regular reminding by people who contact her of how she has been portrayed by RSPCA in the media and elsewhere.

t.   Geraldine Robertson has had the protection of the Police taken from her. When she reported an assault upon herself she called the Beenleigh Police and was abused by the Police, she called the Logan Police and they refused help, she called the Jimboomba Police and they came after five hours and would not help her. They did not collect the bottles, stones and cans that were thrown at her and that hit her on the head. The fingerprints on these bottles would have helped identify her assailants.

u.  Geraldine Robertson had most of her witnesses taken from her. The records seized contained the contact details of the many people who had boarded their dogs with her over the Christmas New Year period prior to the flash flooding that washed debris into her kennels. These people were witnesses to the conditions of her kennels.

v.  Geraldine Robertson had her trust in the legal system taken from her. In her Appeal for the return of her dogs:

1.     RSPCA was allowed to interfere with the three witnesses that did come forward.

2.     RSPCA was allowed to put provable lies into Court and have them accepted as evidence.

3.     RSPCA was allowed to seize her records and other property and ambush her appeal for the return of her dogs by causing her loss of witnesses.

4.     RSPCA was allowed to use pretrial publicity to scare away witnesses and to cause other RSPCA "witnesses"  to harden and fortify against her.

5.     The Magistrate, against the evidence, denied that the Appellant’s kennels were affected by the flash flooding in the week prior to seizure on the 9th January 2008. when in the transcripts:

1.      The words rain and raining appears 403 times in all the transcripts.

2.      The word weather appears 83 times in the transcripts.

3.      The words flood and flooding appears 232 times in the transcripts.

6.     The Magistrate allowed and accepted RSPCA witnesses to point to wet concrete and say it was a sludge of faeces and urine.

7.     There are many incidences and much provable perjury and fabricated evidence and the Magistrate accepted it saying he would consider their evidence when he makes his decision.

w.  Geraldine Robertson had her confidence in the legal profession taken from her. Her then Lawyers attempted to have her certified mentally incapable  with an administrator appointed when she refused to surrender all the dogs to RSPCA. Her replacement Lawyers, could not, or would not, produce an Appeal for the return of her dogs. Geraldine Robertson had to be self represented after having paid lawyers large sums of money.

x.  Geraldine Robertson has been stripped of her financial resources by RSPCA negotiating with her then lawyers for Geraldine Robertson to surrender her dogs to RSPCA when RSPCA had no power to make any decisions to return any of her dogs to her. It was a negotiation that was ultra-vires and a contempt of court as the decision was with the then Department of Primary Industries not the RSPCA.

y.  Geraldine Robertson had her financial security taken from her. When this matter finalises she will have to sell her property as the debt burden is now such that, with her self funded superannuation payments, she has trouble finding the money to live and depends on the charity of friends and some customers who also lost their dogs in the seizure. 

z.   Geraldine Robertson had her lifestyle taken from her. She has to struggle financially to pay her expenses and get by. 

aa.  Geraldine Robertson had her right to all her “defences” in her Appeal to the Brisbane Magistrates Court for the return of her dogs taken from her. Magistrates struck out large amounts of evidence and witnesses were made unavailable to her by RSPCA conduct and trial by media exposure that she was left having to try to show how RSPCA had fabricated evidence and perjured themselves with RSPCA's own evidence.

bb. Geraldine Robertson had her right to live in her own home by herself taken from her. She suffers fear of further abuse made on her by RSPCA as RSPCA did when they raided her. She must have someone else stay with her for protection and peace of mind.

cc. Geraldine Robertson has had her confidence in the Courts taken from her. When she made an application to the Beenleigh Magistrates Court for the return of her kennel boarding records she was found guilty of 1 x animal cruelty and 3 x breach of duty of care (4 charges out of 149 charges). Penalty $250.00. The Magistrate and RSPCA lawyers told her to ignore the Advice of conviction or order, to tear it up, as it was a “clerical error”. Later she received another advice of convictions or order with a penalty of $250.00 from the same hearing. A total of $500.00 in penalty for making an application for the return of her kennel records to enable her to identify and contact potential witnesses to defend the 149 charges laid against her by RSPCA. 

dd. Geraldine Robertson almost had her right to Appeal the above mentioned penalties taken from her by an attempt to deceive and mislead Geraldine Robertson to persuade her not to appeal the above mentioned guilty findings.  Geraldine Robertson has appealed to the District Court against Brisbane Magistrate decision to confirm DPI forfeiture of the dogs. No District Court Judge could return her dogs to her if she is guilty of animal cruelty and breach of duty of care, even if it was caused by a “clerical error” as stated by the Magistrate in the last Beenleigh Magistrates Court mention hearing. 

ee.  Geraldine Robertson has a right to conduct any business that has anything to do with animals. RSPCA had threatened to come again and again and start it all over again if she were to conduct any animal related business.  

     What h appened to Geraldine Robertson is the result of Anna Bligh's Labor Government Prosecution for Profit Policy.  IT COULD HAPPEN TO YOU.
