The death of Mévy: the hour of reckoning has struck

The sessions are linked to the Tribunal de Grande Instance in Paris. To defend the memory and the rights of the young tigress Mévy and to go beyond this and into her killing, within the framework for our direct quotation of a voluntary slaughter of an animal. We have already participated in two hearings this year, the second took place on April 11^th, 2019.

Commercial Motivation

As a reminder, while our complaint back in 2017, immediately after the facts, had been shamefully dismissed, we initiated direct proceedings against the owner of the Bormann circus who detained the feline, let her escape and preferred to shoot her out of sight rather than keep her cornered until the arrival of reinforcements that would have allowed for her capture.

During the hearing on April 11^th, our lawyer was able to speak for Mévy and bring about many elements incriminating her owner. She notably underlined that if the trainer had chosen to kill the tigress, it was only for financial gain. The circus had indeed moved to the 15^th arrondissement. With Mévy on the run, he risked losing his plot and being prosecuted for crimes. So, he preferred to shoot, to eliminate this annoying witness, rather than to wait for an outside intervention ... And commit an irretrievable act.

A life is priceless

Who cares? Since this tragedy, the circus has quietly continued its performances and has received a financial windfall. However, this tigress was unique, irreplaceable. Her value, like that of each living being, lay in a whole other dimension, that of the financial field. She was an individual, she had a breath, she had emotions, feelings and also had a great intelligence.

Today, she is no longer breathing. The one who - by his own admission - had "bottle-fed" her, the one who had deprived her of her freedom to do her thing. The one who had negligently allowed her to escape and eventually kill her, without hesitation with three bullets, while she was lying prostrate at the bottom of a dead-end road. We cannot close our eyes. If we cannot save Mévy, we will fight to the end to represent her, we will attend as many hearings as it takes to plead her case ... and to allow her to end up being heard !

Que celui qui a tué cette tigresse soit poursuivi et très sévèrement puni à défaut de pouvoir appliquer la meilleure loi en l’occurrence ( et celle qui les dissuaderait le plus) pour tous ceux s’en prenant aux animaux.

La tigresse prénommée Mévy appartenait au cirque BORMANN qui était installé dans le 15ème arrondissement de Paris et dont le propriétaire l'a laissé s'échapper. Il n'a pas trouver mieux que la faire abattre par son dresseur loin des regards, plutôt que de la mettre en joue, jusqu'à ce que l'arrivée des renforts qui auraient pu la capturer (il existe des fléchettes qui endorment). Pour ne pas perdre son emplacement et poursuivi pour délits, l'irréparable a été commis. C'est toujours la même chose, on tue, c'est plus facile que d'assumer ses responsabilités. Les animaux sont considérés comme des êtres vivants dotés de sensibilité, en aucun cas, ils n'ont à être exploités et tenus captifs dans des cirques animaliers qui n'ont pas de respect pour les animaux et où le bien-être fait défaut. Nos élus ont le devoir d'user de leurs pouvoirs afin que la maltraitance animale, dans un pays des droits de l'homme cesse une fois pour toute.
