Wash. lawmakers to weigh bestiality ban after man dies from sex with horse

A Seattle man died on July 2 from internal bleeding after having sex with a horse.

State Sen. Pam Roach wants Washington residents to stop horsing around with their stallions — and other domesticated animals.

Roach, outraged by a Seattle man's death after having sex with a horse, said she is proposing a law that would make having sex with an animal punishable by up to five years in prison and a $10,000 fine.

"This is a crime against innocent life, and you know that the animal is not seeking this," Roach said. "This is something a human being has decided to commit against another innocent being."

Roach is planning to introduce the bill at the state's next legislative session in December.

The proposed legislation stems from an investigation into an Enumclaw, Wash., farm, where a 45-year-old man died on July 2 from internal bleeding due to a perforated colon resulting from having sex with a horse.

When the story was published, Roach said dozens of residents sent e-mails calling for legislation to ban bestiality.

"While the horse won out in this instance, there are cases where smaller animals are used for these particular acts and its extremely painful for them," Roach said. "The whole realm of bestiality is cruel to the animal because it is unnatural."

Enumclaw police commander Eric Sortland said the man, whose name was not released, was dropped off at a local hospital by an unknown person. The man died before doctors were able to treat him, Sortland said.

Detectives linked the victim to a Kings County farm. They performed a search and questioned a group of workers there. Sortland said police uncovered videotapes of several people, including the man who died, engaging in sexual acts with animals.

"It's quite astonishing that people would participate in this behavior and do so consistently," Sortland said. "That they would subject animals and livestock to this type of cruelty is flat-out disturbing."

Police also discovered Internet chat rooms and Web sites that posted free clips and advertised the Enumclaw farm as a place for people to engage in bestiality.

Despite the tapes, the Web sites, and a man's death, Sortland said no charges have been filed against the farm because bestiality is not a crime in Washington.

If Roach's legislation passes, Washington would become the 31st state banning sexual activity with animals and the seventh to classify bestiality as a felony.

After the videotapes surfaced, Roach said she felt it was important to also make it illegal to videotape, sell or have intent to sell videos of the 'abhorrent' sexual acts.

"Reproducing this stuff seems to be at the same level as partaking in the act, so I think that should be a class C felony too," she said.

Martin Mersereau, manager of the Domestic Animal Abuse Department at People for
the Ethical Treatment of Animals (PETA), praised Roach's efforts to punish those who engage in bestiality and animal abuse.

"It's cruel. That's my stance and that's PETA's stance," Mersereau said. "I'll change my tune when Mr. Ed tells me he likes being raped in his stall by some pervert on a stepstool."

Nationwide problem

Although bestiality crimes often go undetected, recent cases have cropped up from coast to coast.

Moreover, these incidents have forced prosecutors in several states to find applicable laws to address allegations of animal sexual abuse.

Last week, prosecutors in Tallahassee, Fla., dropped animal cruelty charges against a blind man who was accused of having sex with his guide dog. Florida, like Washington, doesn't have a bestiality statute.

Prosecutors were forced to charge the man with disorderly conduct, alleging he was disturbing the peace by engaging in sexual activity with his dog.

In St. Charles, Ill., 37-year-old Noel Huecias was sentenced to 60 days in jail and 12 months of probation for two incidents involving sexual interaction with a dog.

Ledy Van Kavage, a senior director at The American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals said growing instances of abuse show an immediate need for laws in states lacking them.

She said although most legislators are appalled by news of these acts, getting someone to sponsor a bill can be difficult.

"Legislators didn't want to be laughed at on the Senate floor. But it's not a laughing matter. Animals do die from this deviant behavior," Van Kavage said. "I show them news headlines and ask, 'Is this what you want your state to be known for?'"

Mersereau said he hopes cases like the one in Enumclaw will force Washington and other states to take a closer look at their legal stance on bestiality.

"Animals have no real say in this matter and they most likely are trusting of their human guardians," Mersereau said. "Every day without a law like this means more animals will suffer."



At what point do people get so sex deprived that they consider something like this? This is just SICK, SICK, SICK!!!!!!! :eek: :eek:

Absolutley Disgusting!

Oh. My. God.

That may well be one of the most disturbing articles I've read in a long time.

I just don't have words. THat is just sick.

:laugh: the horse 'won' :laugh:

That is some sick and twisted sh*t but I know it happens. The poor animals OMG! I could cry at the thought of the poor innocent animals having to endure this torture. I'm sorry to say this but in this instance I'd rather the man have died than the horse...

:shocked: :eek: Buy a doll -- or a hooker. Good lord...that is absolutely disgusting. How is that NOT illegal??

:laugh: :laugh:

Um, this is REALLY distressing too! :shocked:

@#%#&%#$&$#%$#&%$#%$#%#&%$#&%$#&%$#&%$#&&%^&*^%*(%&$#!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11 :mad: :mad: :mad:
What the hell is wrong with men/people? It's outrageous. There truly is no bounds to human depravity.

I have a sick crush on Dr. Drew, of course I listen to it, silly. :p I love that show.

I remember reading...
 

about the horse & this guy last week...I wonder if Mr.Ed enjoyed it? "Ohhh Willburrrr"

"A horse is a horse of course of course"...

After what I just read in my local paper, nothing surprises me. Some people are real SICKOS. :mad:

Lee :mad:

What the hell? That's discusting.

dr. drew is somewhere on my Top5 list of hot,grey-haired, nailable guys. and his voice... i think the show airs on a one-day delay down here and that kind of sucks. did you ever listen to LovePhone? dr. judy and jagger... it was a while ago. anyways, i fall asleep with LoveLine on every night. much love to dr. drew... ps did you know he has triplets? something to be said for that ;)

Dr. Drew so doesn't look 47, either. I should add him to the hotties thread. :laugh:

No, I never listened to LovePhone, just LoveLine. I do watch Sue Johanson, though. I love that chick and the Hot Bag is priceless.

:thumbsup:

LOVE Sue Johanson!!

That woman is such a riot! :laugh: :laugh:

I love it when she demonstrates (in some respects) the sex toys. Although there is something incredibly weird seeing someone who could be my grandmother talking about these kinds of things. :eek:

Sue rawks! :woohoo:

The last time I watched Sue, she hauled out a sex toy from the Hot Bag and said "This is a real winner, I tried it out when I found it last week and I give it three bricquettes. My staff really liked it, too" :laugh:

Arg!
 

Me too! I love LoveLine. Adam totally cracks me up. He's so funny. And I love when they do Germany or Florida. It seems true. There's always weird stuff going on in Florida.

First of all, this whole thing is revolting.

However, I'm confused. The man died of a perforated colon. Exactly how does one get a perforated colon from sex with a horse???

Silly size queens.

If you had a horse's member up your rump, I doubt your body would take to it very well. :o

That's what I was thinking... but then, how does one A) get the horse to stick its member up your rump and B) have it happen without getting crushed beneath the horse's weight?

Ummm.... let's just say the horse was the "pitcher" and the perv guy was the "catcher". :eek:

That's what I'm sitting here wondering... they prolly had some in season filly in the barn, the stud was tied up with Mr. Rump Packer bent over on the ground or something. You wouldn't believe what people do to breed race horses. I feel sorry for the poor horses. Butt this guy deserved what he got, that's for sure. Hope he had fun doing it. Phreak!!

I saw the article while I was on Pasado's website looking for a puppy to adopt. Their version didn't say HOW the guy died, so I've been wondering. I figured it was a female horse and she kicked his as* so hard he died... but this is far worse. I've heard of those women down in Mexico who get paid to put on a show with donkeys. Supposedly they use a sling. Sue Johanson's show said 50% of men (growing up on a farm) have had sex with an animal. I THINK it said "growing up on a farm" - And the guy with the guide dog... brings new meaning to the phrase "man's best friend." Hopefully that guy never gets another guide dog. Deviants like that need to be castrated or sewn shut. Sorry, but that's my opinion. Scuse me while I go hurl now.

It's pretty disgusting, but, umm... *insert some very good and probably wellknown reasons to become a vegetarian here* (I mean the stories about chicken farms etc.)

(I'm only a "part time vegetarian" myself :o Don't have to eat it everyday, but I just like meat too much! I tried it, but lost weight, which is not good for me. I admire anyone who can do it though. Allright, that's it. I'm going to buy more of that expensive meat from the 'good' farms.)
