David Graham is a sab with a criminal conviction for perverting the course of justice, whom no one should ever take seriously again.
Perverting the Course of Justice
Graham’s infamous saga began in March 2016 after he claimed to be the victim of assault.
Two landowners, the Milner brothers, who had given a hunt permission to cross their land, rightly tried to escort Graham off their land, for, expectedly, he did not have their permission to be there and was therefore trespassing.
The brothers escorted the sabs off their land, yet days later Graham reported to the police that he had been assaulted, bringing a tiresome legal case against them.
Some two years down the line, in the summer of 2018, the case was discontinued. Leicestershire police had analysed films which Graham had provided as evidence, only to determine that “they had been doctored to present the incident in a different light”.
Manipulating evidence is a serious criminal offence. Graham was found guilty of perverting the course of justice by giving the police this tampered footage that was set to a repeated loop, making it look as though Graham was kicked repeatedly.
He was handed a 12-month suspended sentence and should count himself very fortunate not to have been sent straight to jail for such a serious offence.
A letter sent into the Country Squire Magazine, published in October 2020, describes how “during his trial, David Graham embarrassed himself even more by saying he thinks he was kicked in the face and pinned to the floor but managed to turn over and get up? He says he was scared and knocked out but continued to trespass for another 5 hours?”
This letter shows Graham’s claims to be categorically untrue. Not only did he provide false and tampered evidence, but he also allegedly lied to the jury.
Judge Ebrahim Mooncey, who ruled on the case, said to Graham: "You submitted to the police video recorded evidence which was tampered with – which is perverting the course of justice. Normally people would go to prison straight away but in your case I'm mindful this case goes back to 2016, when you were 30 and now you're 35.”
The case of David Graham’s perjury proves that the West Midlands sabs are more than willing to tamper with evidence, undermining the credibility of any material posted by them, either online or in person.
Fleecing the Public
As well as being handed a 12-month suspended sentence and 100 hours of community service, Graham was also fined £1,000.
Sadly, it comes as no surprise that he and Cathy Scott at once took to social media to accuse the police of committing perjury themselves. Yet even more disgusting was their decision to set up a GoGetFunding page to make gullible people pay for Graham’s crimes:
Funding amounts have since been altered, yet the page’s history records its first donation on 3 October 2020, within two weeks of Graham’s sentencing. Being criminally convicted for perjury is laughably considered a necessary “campaign cost”, according to Graham.
But the West Midlands Hunt sabs regularly fleece their gullible tribe of donors and followers for drone costs, buying a car, petrol costs, buying a new camcorder, and even to “help equip our sabs with cameras”.
This is an all-too-common shameless perversion of public goodwill by a group of extremists, whose sole intention is to cause division, chaos, and violence in the British countryside.
Criminal Connections
Graham keeps good company, being acquainted disturbing sab Richard Williams, who has been in hiding for some time.
In January 2020, Graham thought it wise to encourage Williams to come out sabbing with them to threaten and intimidate hunt members, along with Cathy Scott.
After trespassing on private land during a legal trail hunt, Graham, Scott, and Williams were rightly asked to leave by two female hunt stewards. Just like other sabs, Williams reacted aggressively, with Scott and Graham providing back-up behind him.
But rather than lie about being assaulted and waste police time by perverting the cause of justice like Graham chose to in his moment of glory, Williams unleashed despicably violent behaviour.
Undeniable footage shows Williams accosting a steward and shouting in anger: “I just got out of jail for f**king murder, and I’ll f**king go back in again.”
In the same video, one cannot fail to hear the steward in panic asking Williams to stop touching her breasts, potentially indicating sexual assault.
David Graham’s deceitful actions and choice of company show he has little concern for animal welfare. Instead, his only desire is to stoke division among rural communities of the West Midlands and sow hatred in the countryside.
Even despite all of David Graham's vices, he somehow managed to slip through the New York Times' net...
