The trial for six animal rights activists who occupied a slaughterhouse roof in the UK to protest pig gas chambers has been adjourned until December. The activists were charged with aggravated trespass under the Criminal Justice and Public Order Act 1994. The activists protested against the treatment of pigs at the slaughterhouse and obtained undercover footage of illegal activities. The trial has been moved to December to allow time for new expert testimonies to be acquired.

The activists, including Joey Carbstrong, faced the possibility of a custodial sentence, but they are prepared to go to prison for their cause. They believe the justice system penalizes those who speak out against immoral and illegal practices while letting the perpetrators off the hook. The activists are focused on raising awareness about the horrific methods used to kill animals in slaughterhouses.
