Leah is determined not to give up. The activist explained that she continues her fight because she \u2018cannot bare to live in this world while others suffer at the hands and wallets of my species.\u2019<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/blockquote>\n\n

EMILY BROWN:<\/strong> Leah Doellinger is set to go to court this month to face serious charges related to her protests for animal rights, but while the threat of jail time is a horrific concept for many, for Leah it has become a common consequence of her actions…<\/p>\n

Since beginning her fight in 2016, activist and Meat the Victims founder Leah Doellinger has faced a total of 26 charges, with her latest including charges of \u2018Entering or being in premises and committing indictable offences; Possession of things used in connection with unlawful entry; Contravening order about device information from a digital device and General biosecurity obligation offence provision’…<\/p>\n

With her court date looming, Leah said simply that whatever happens to her \u2018will never compare to the needless violence we force animals to endure.\u2019 On some days, the treatment of animals leaves her feeling \u2018so anxious and depressed\u2019 she feels like she \u2018just can\u2019t take this world anymore\u2019, but with so many innocent beings still in need of help, the activist is determined to keep on fighting…<\/p>\n

Depending on the outcome of the case, Leah is liable to be sentenced to life in prison as a maximum, while the minimum she could expect to receive is conviction and a suspended sentence, according to her barrister and lawyer…<\/p>\n

Either way, it\u2019s a daunting prospect for a 31-year-old looking to establish a career as a dietician, but no matter what punishments she may face, Leah is determined not to give up. Speaking to UNILAD, the activist explained that she continues her fight because she \u2018cannot bare to live in this world while others suffer at the hands and wallets of my species.\u2019<\/p>\n

Through her movement Meat the Victims, Leah and other activists aim to expose the horrific treatment many animals are subject to in the food industry by breaking into farms, rescuing animals and sharing footage of the scenes they uncover…<\/p>\n

Over the last five years, Leah said she has rescued \u2018thousands of animals from abusive facilities all over Australia\u2019, including more than 560 in 2019 alone. She has organised five Meat the Victims actions in her own country, though the movement has become global and resulted in 23 actions in 11 different countries.<\/p>\n

She admitted she \u2018really [has] no idea what will stop\u2019 her, noting it was her public defiance of the law to rescue animals which \u2018created a domino effect of others having the courage to disobey the law, save who they can and share the truth.\u2019<\/p>\n

Meat the Victims wants animal rights to be \u2018taken seriously\u2019 and for the \u2018public to know the truth\u2019, with Leah expressing her belief that \u2018in this world the government doesn\u2019t change the laws or shift the paradigm; the people do’…<\/p>\n

Leah claims animal agriculture has done a \u2018brilliant job of hiding and normalising heinous crimes against animals and our beautiful planet\u2019, and argues \u2018animal rights have never been taken seriously\u2019…<\/p>\n

The activist went on to say she \u2018cannot think of anything more evil\u2019 than events stemming from the dairy industry; forcing \u2018a woman to fall pregnant over and over again only to drag her child away and kill them, usually by the legal and standard method of blunt force trauma to the head, just so humans can have her child\u2019s milk’…<\/p>\n

Though there are legal ways to protest for animal rights, Leah noted that the masses \u2018can\u2019t see or hear\u2019 the animals unless activists \u2018break the law and show the consumers what they are paying for’…<\/p>\n

She claimed \u2018animal agriculture, the government and big pharma are all in bed together\u2019 and \u2018fund bias research, they pay off their crimes, they control majority of the media, and they silence whistleblowers\u2019, telling UNILAD that by enacting illegal activism with the animals, they will be able to \u2018get the animals on the agenda’.
