A ringleader in a global monkey torture network exposed by the BBC has been charged by US federal prosecutors.
Michael Macartney, 50, who went by the alias “Torture King”, was charged in Virginia with conspiracy to create and distribute animal-crushing videos.
Mr Macartney was one of three key distributors identified by the BBC Eye team during a year-long investigation into sadistic monkey torture groups.
Two women have also been charged in the UK following the investigation.

Good strawman.
You should probably actually learn fallacies before using the wrong one where it is not applicable.
I’m okay, like I said, I have no interest in your responses so you can stop.
I’ll stop when the ignorant are willing to learn.
Okay, you must be trolling. No one is this stupid.
Don’t be a cunt.
I’m not. Take your own advice.
You called me a troll and stupid. Yes, you are.
I genuinely didn’t expect to find someone defending the torture king earnestly, I think my words were justified
Except I didn’t defend him. Try again.
Lol you have no idea what a straw man is. Cute.
From your response you clearly do not.
