Deterrent? Jesus if you look at most serial killers they started with setting fires and torturing animals. This scum rolled both into one. Lock him away permanently as a preventative measure.
A man who tortured a guinea pig with a makeshift flame-thrower has been warned he faces a prison sentence.
Daniel O'Rourke, 18, used a lighter and a can of aerosol to shoot a flame at the animal. He also filmed the attack on a mobile phone.
Lincoln magistrates heard the pet survived but suffered burns.
O'Rourke, of Highfield Avenue in Lincoln, admitted causing unnecessary suffering to the guinea pig. He will be sentenced next month.
'Sadistic acts'
The teenager also admitted four offences of injuring, killing or causing distress to chickens, at allotments off Boultham Park Road, Lincoln.
The court heard how the attack on the guinea pig took place in May last year at the home of one of O'Rourke's friends in the city.
Despite being trapped in a cage and having its coat badly singed and its whiskers burnt off, the animal was treated for its injuries and successfully rehoused.
District Judge Richard Blake told O'Rourke he had carried out "sadistic acts" and any sentence should act as a deterrent.

No, you are right Nick, guinea pigs are a staple in some countries although I'm pretty sure they dont try roasting them alive. There are times I think that the punishment should mirror the crime and this is another of them.

Vaguely being the operative word. You have been "had" again Wenchy. It means nothing of the sort.

Budgies are native to Australia. Not much meat on them and somehow I do not see yer average 'Strine bothering to cook one. Sounds to me like the same sort of myth as Kangaroo being Abo lingo for "Dunno" that supposedly being what the natives said when Cpt. Cooke asked them what the animal was called.
And for those who think I am making this up check it out for yourselves:
