Previously, the production of the animal torture videos was attributed mainly to foreign countries where crush fetishists – the buyers of these violent videos –abound. The Ridons’ indictment for the sale and production of crush videos under the animal welfare laws is a first in the Philippines, where this form of sexual perversion is virtually unheard of, and where willful cruelty to animals, particularly household pets, is considered an abomination.

The torture of small animals is intentionally stretched for several minutes to an hour. In the Ridon’s crush video website, potential video buyers can choose what the “animal torturers,” mostly underage girls, should be wearing and which small creature they could stomp on or torture to death. They have since posted bail of P104,000 each for their provisional liberty.
