Huntswoman, who was filmed whipping saboteur 17 times and was facing prosecution, dies in riding accident
A huntswoman, who was facing prosecution after a video of her repeatedly whipping a saboteur went viral on social media, has died in a riding mishap, according to reports. The passing of 57-year-old Jane Goring was confirmed by a Facebook group called Mid Surrey Farmers' Draghounds, with close family members confirming her death as well.
According to the Daily Mail, Goring died after falling from her horse on Wednesday during a drag hunt — an equestrian sport where riders chase a trail of artificially laid scents with hounds. In their post, Mid Surrey Farmers' Draghounds wrote, "We very much regret to inform you that Jane Goring was tragically killed whilst out dragging yesterday at Leigh. On behalf of the masters and members of the drag hunt, we send our condolences and thoughts to Richard and Jane's family at this awful time."
