Rebecca Woods insisted she only released her truckload of hives to allow the bees to enjoy the “lovely, flowering landscape” near the home of an elderly friend and cancer patient.

She could have done 10 times worse and I would never have voted to convict, had I been on the jury.

I really want to watch the prosecution try to claim she has the power to command bees.
