“This is sickening, having any sort of sexual engagement with an animal should be a crime…why the hell would any normal person think it’s ok??? Animals cannot speak for themselves, so we have to…it’s rape with or without penetration!!”
A ruling by the Canadian Supreme Court said an alleged offence can only be classed as bestiality if there is penetration!
It came from a case involving a man who smeared peanut butter on his stepdaughters’ genitals and had the family dog lick it off, while filming the act.
The man, identified only as DLW, was convicted of 13 counts of sexually assaulting his stepdaughters, and jailed for 16 years.
The counts included one of bestiality – but he has now been acquitted of the bestiality charge.
The court said: ‘The term ‘bestiality’ has a well-established legal meaning and refers to sexual intercourse between a human and an animal.
‘Penetration has always been understood to be an essential element of bestiality.’
A 7-1 majority ruled that bestiality required penetration.
DLW, who also failed in attempts to make the dog perform intercourse on the stepdaughter, according to court documents, brought the bestiality conviction to the court on appeal.
Justice Rosalie Abella was the only judge to vote against the proposal.
She wrote: ‘Acts with animals that have a sexual purpose are inherently exploitative whether or not penetration occurs.’
Camille Labchuk, the executive director of charity Animal Justice, toldMetro.co.uk: ‘The Supreme Court’s decision is a wake up call that laws protecting animals are severely out of date.
“PLEASE SIGN THE PETITION BELOW – THIS HEINOUS ABUSE MUST BE STOPPED NOW & THE AG-GAG LAW ABOLISHED. If these men are capable of treating animals in such a vile manner; what are they like at home? probable domestic abuse & perhaps worse! These evil sub-humans need to be exposed not protected by an AG-GAG Law. Think about it, only those with something to hide would want this law to protect them from the public finding out what really happens to its animals. If you’re a meat-eater, are you happy to eat a cow that has been violated & horrifically abused???”

MFA has released never-before-seen undercover video of cows being sexually abused at Bettencourt Dairies, Idaho’s largest dairy farm.
The footage is part of a new online ad campaign aimed at defeating the state’s controversial “ag-gag” bill, SB 1337.
The graphic hidden-camera video shows a worker fondling a cow’s vagina while making crude sexual references. It also shows this and other Bettencourt workers viciously beating, kicking, and jumping on cows in order to deliberately inflict pain.
MFA is urging concerned citizens to contact Idaho governor Butch Otter and representatives in the state House to demand that they reject the dangerous ag-gag bill. Watch the shocking video here:
Viewer Discretion – Dairy Industry Tries to Cover Up Factory Farm Sex Abuse
Published on 18 Feb 2014
In direct response to an undercover investigation exposing horrific animal abuse and sexual assault at Bettencourt Dairies, Idaho’s largest dairy factory farm, corrupt lawmakers have introduced a bill to silence whistleblowers and keep the dairy industry’s dirty secrets hidden from public view. Watch and share this important video. Then take action at www.MercyForAnimals.org/Idaho
In late 2012, MFA conducted an undercover investigation at Bettencourt Dairies that exposed a culture of horrific animal cruelty, neglect, and sexual abuse. The investigation led to criminal charges against workers at the facility. Jesus Garza, seen molesting a cow in this newly released video, was convicted in January 2013 of criminal cruelty to animals. He was sentenced to 180 days in jail, ordered to pay a $500 fine, and barred from supervising or providing any direct care to livestock.
This year, indirect response to MFA’s investigation, pro-factory farm legislators in Idaho proposed an ag-gag bill designed to shield animal abusers likeJesus Garza from public scrutiny. If passed, SB 1337 would make it a crime to take photos or video at a factory farm without the owner’s permission. Luis Bettencourt, owner of Bettencourt Dairies, has been lobbying to pass this bill.
“This legislation is a desperate attempt to sweep evidence of animal cruelty and sexual abuse under the rug,” said MFA’s executive director, Nathan Runkle.
“Without Mercy For Animals’ investigation, sadistic animal abuse and sexual molestation would have gone on undetected, unaddressed and unpunished. Idaho has some of the weakest animal cruelty laws in the nation.
Lawmakers should be focusing on strengthening these pathetic laws, not silencing whistleblowers in an attempt to protect corrupt corporations.”
We must put a stop to this dangerous legislation. Click hereto sign the petition calling on Idaho governor Butch Otter to veto this dangerous bill.

“Sick bxxxh, needs locking up to protect children & animals; I hope she pay’s dearly for this!”
A Maryland school district worker charged with bestiality involving her pet dog also allegedly had sex with a boy, it was revealed this week.
During a hearing Wednesday, a judge ruled that 46-year-old Stephanie Mikleswill stand trial for allegedly having sex with the family pet between August 1 and August 31, 2008.
Mikles, who had worked for the Hartford County School District, was arrested after a search of her Jarrettsville home has reportedly yielded a CDcontaining a dozen photos of the woman having intercourse with the pooch.
The search was reportedly prompted by allegations made by a boy who claimed he had sex with Mikles, the Baltimore Sun reported.
According to the unnamed minor, after their encounter, the educator showed him a recording of sexual acts involving her pet dog.
Miss Mikles has yet to be charged in connection to the allegedchild sex abuse.
The 46-year-old defendant, who had been employed as a behavioral specialist, working with special education teachers, was placed on unpaid administrative leave. On Wednesday, a district spokesperson said that Mikles no longer works for the school system.
In the course of the hearing, Mikles‘ attorney, Leslie Gladstone, unsuccessfully argued that the charge of ‘unnatural or perverted practice’ is too vague and was rendered unconstitutional by the U.S. Supreme Court.
Disturbing twist: A boy told investigators in 2008 that he had sex with Mikles and was later shown recordings of her engaging in sexual acts with her dog
Gladstone maintained that the charge in question was designed only to punish people for practices seen as ‘abhorrent morally and religiously.’
‘If my client was charged with cruelty to animals, there may be an issue there,’ he said.
Judge Robert Dugan also dismissed a motion filed by Gladstone to supress the photos seized from Mikles’ home.
Allegations of bestiality against Mikles came to light in 2008 when she was investigated for child pornography and sexual abuse of a minor.
In Maryland there is no statute of limitations for bestiality charges so authorities were able to press charges as soon as they discovered the evidence.
The boy had told child advocates with the Hartford County that he had sex withMikles and was later shown depictions of her engaging in sexual acts with her dog.
Acting on that information, officers served Mikleswith a search warrant and seized a CD from her home, which reportedly contained 12 photos believed to have been taken by a third partyof the 46-year-old school employee having sex with an animal.
The defence attorney claimed that officers with the Child Advocacy Centre violated the search warrant’s instructions by failing to inspect the images in a lab.
Miklesis expected to go on trial in August. If convicted of the bestiality charge, she could face up to 10 years in prison and ordered to pay a fine of up to $10,000.
In May, local TV stationABC2 reported that the dog at the center of the bestiality case still lived with Mikles.
“I don’t think any kind of treatment can help here, aside from chopping his dick off!!. After so many repeated rapes on animals, how long before he turns his attention to children? He is a threat & should be locked away in either a jail or mental home; just get him off the streets!!
Cirilo Castillo has been charged with 2 counts of trespassing and 2 counts of animal cruelty. Credits: The Houston Chronicle/ Hildago County Sheriff‘s Office
According to the Monitor.com, Castillowas released from jail on June 25 forpublic lewdness and having sexwith the mare named Nadia.
On June 28, he was caught on a video surveillance camera having sex with the same horse again.
A previous record shows another arrest in January 2012 for similar allegations.
The Houston Chronicle statesHidalgo County Sheriff Lupe Trevino describes Castillo as a laborer with prior arrests for theft and possession of marijuana. The Sheriff stated:
“The guy is practically harmless, except for the horse. I can’t just ignore this and allow it to keep happening.”
The Sheriff is hoping Justice of the Peace Bobby Contreras will order Castillo to get treatment. Bond was set at $35,000.
New York, May 12 (ANI): An Illinois man has been charged with animal cruelty after the cops, who were investigating him for a different crime, found out that he had sexually abused his pet peacock.
Authorities asserted that they discovered the pet bird, Phyl, dead in the 64-year- old’s garage on April 28, although particulars about how and when the peacock died were still unclear.
The cops revealed to the publication that they could not talk about the animal cruelty charges because they relate to a case involving a child.
In addition to the animal cruelty charge, court records show that Beckmann faces three other charges of harassment by telephone, two counts of marijuana possession, unlawful possession of drug paraphernalia, attempted indecent solicitation of a child and two counts of battery. (ANI)
A pervert physiotherapist kept films and pictures of him and a woman engaging in sex acts with animals and also downloaded hundreds of child abuse images, a court heard.
Maidstone Crown Court, where Donoghue’s case was heard
The bestiality clips and photos, involving a labrador retriever and horses, dated back several years when such pornography was not illegal.
They were discovered after police raided Anthony Donoghue’s home at Sturmer Court in Kings Hill – along with more than 1,400 child sex abuse images.
Jailing the 54-year-old father for eight months, a judge branded the animal films as “really quite remarkably nasty”.
Judge Charles Macdonald QC added: “They were not criminal when made in 2004 but they are extraordinarily degrading and they were kept for no intelligible reason.”
Donoghue, now of Crawley, West Sussex, admitted six charges of possessing indecent photos of children, two of making them, one of distributing and one of possessing extreme pornography.
“He is an intelligent man. He appears to have lost everything” – Jan Hayne, defending
Maidstone Crown Court heard how using the name Peter Adams, he in March last year was in contact with a man on a gay website and arranged to meet him and “some other pervy mates”.
Bridget Todd, prosecuting, said Donoghue sent the other man pictures of adults engaging in sex or “extreme activity”. He also sent one of a child aged five or six who he claimed he knew.
“He felt uncomfortable about what he had been sent and called the police,” said Miss Todd.
Officers went to Donoghue’s home on March 23 last year and arrested him. Computers, a camcorder and video tapes were seized. There were 66 extreme images.
Jan Hayne, defending, said Donoghue had been frank about his offending and sought treatment.
“What was not at the root of his offending was high risk sexual behaviour,” she said. “He would not behave in that manner again. He is essentially a good man.”
Miss Hayne said the majority of the images had been deleted and there were only 64 “live” pictures.
Submitting a suspended sentence could be imposed, she added: “He is an intelligent man. He appears to have lost everything.”
Judge Macdonald said sex acts with horses in a field at night took place as a precursor to sex with his female partner.
“You have lost your job,” he told Donoghue. “There is nothing which will lead me to suspend the sentence.”
“Take note of this sick EVIL MF…if you see him, know of him or live in the area, keep an eye on your children & your pets! See the cold black empty look in his eyes, he has no soul & no heart, because he made a deal with the devil. Filthy scum needs locking away for good, no amount of jail time will stop him from wanting & needing his repulsive daily fix! Monstrosity’s like him should have their manhood chopped off & the word “Bestial Pervert” tattooed across their heads, so where ever they go; people will know that they are in the presence of a depraved abomination!”
A Ravenswood man admitted to possessing more than 2,500 videos and images of child pornography—some with children as young as one.
Seamus Webb, 51, was arrested Thursday and charged with four felonies for disseminating and possessing child pornography. Policesaid the images includedbestialityand bondage of minors.
Cook County Sheriff’s Police Child Exploitation Unit found Webbin his apartment on the 1600 block of West Carmen Ave and arrested him without incident.
The charges—all class X felonies—include aggravated child pornography, dissemination; aggravated child pornography possession; child pornography, possession of pictures; child pornography possession of movies.
Bond for Webb was set at $100,000. His next court date is scheduled for April 11.
“Sorry I am still playing catch up with a lot of stories due to being hospitalised for several weeks at Christmas, so my apologies for not sharing this good news earlier, although you all probably now about it by now…but I’m still posting just in case a few have missed it!”
“There is a News Link, honest, it’s just a way down because I had a lot to say:)
“AT LAST…see, raise our voices loud enough & they will be heard; thanks to all who signed petitions etc. this is proof they work…or at the very least, the questions get to within governments ears, so they are forced to face the issues raised!”
“However, I personally have many doubts about how this is going to be enforced…just because it has now been banned, doesn’t mean those that engage in unnatural sexual acts with animals, are just going to stop!! The ban will do nothing to suppress their sexual urges…so where are they going to get it??!”
“I’m just throwing my thoughts around here! What about those who are known to police, those that partake in this vile fetish, & who already own dogs or have other animals in their homes, for sexual gratification?? How do we ensure those animals are safe behind closed doors?? We can’t, unless those known to police are forced to give up their animals!”
“Either that or anyone police suspect of committing bestiality within the home, could be made to let a vet make random, spot check ups on the animals…to ensure no sexual activity is being forced upon them. Lets face it, this is not a spectator sport, so the majority of vile acts will be carried out behind closed doors, with those that own their own dogs etc. I just don’t like to think of those poor animals, locked up with those who see them as sexual slaves…will they now make their pets available to others?? This may go underground even more, so it’s imperative that known deviants who own animals are properly policed to ensure the animals are safe.”
” I’m sure once a dog for instance, has been abused in this way, it would be very easy for a qualified vet to detect; but does it depend on how frequently it happens, or how gentle the perpetrators are? I don’t know, like I said, I have all kinds of thoughts running through my head! Some pictures I have had the displeasure of seeing, are of animals that have been brutally raped; therefore it is glaringly obvious to any lay person, that a heinous crime has been committed.”
“And, I am also presuming that any vet, will now have to alert authority’s, if they find any animal that appears to have been forced to perform any unnatural sexual acts…not all veterinarians have to disclose facts like these to the police or animal organisation…but I can’t for the life of me, see why they wouldn’t; surely it goes against all the moral & ethical codes of being a vet!”
“This would have been the ideal time to bring in an Animal Abuse Register too, paedophiles & those who commit sexual acts on animals should be branded as such; a tattoo visible to the public, now wouldn’t that be a giant leap forward in animal protection? But I suppose that’s asking too much, however more states in the US are looking into the prospect of using a register, we can but hope!!”
GERMANY’S upper house of parliament, the Bundesrat, has voted to criminalise for the first time ”using an animal for personal sexual activities” and to punish offenders with fines of as much as $34,000.
It was the final legislative hurdle for a bill the lower house passed in December.
The vote follows months of debate that pitted so-called zoophiles againstanimal rights and protection advocates. Sexual mores seemed not to play a paramount role.
The ban, which carries only a misdemeanor charge, is an amendment to the country’s animal protection law, which, among other things, regulatesanimal testing and the sale of animals, and prohibitsanimal abuse, including ”using an animal for personal sexual activities or making them available to third parties for sexual activities and thereby forcing them to behave in ways that are inappropriate to their species”.
Zoophilesargue that their relationships with their pets, or ”partners” as they prefer, are entirely mutual. Michael Kiok, a co-director of Zoophilic Engagement for Tolerance and Enlightenment (ZETA), said animals were perfectly capable of expressing whether or not they desired sex. “Since last I looked, my dog couldn’t talk, I’m sure that goes for all animals…so how the hell can they express it, flash their bloody eyelashes?? Without a verbal consent, in a court of law…I believe it is still rape!!
Animal-rights groups have criticised the move. But David Zimmermann, who is also a co-director of ZETA, said: ”It’s a sexual aspect that is entirely foreign to most people. They just see a man and think, ‘What terrible things is he doing to that dog?’ “That would be because 99% of normal people do think its sick & a terrible thing to do…it’s not bloody natural & definitely not the way nature intended it to be either?”
Mr Zimmermann had a Great Dane with which he occasionally had sex but it died four months ago, he said. Now he lives with his similarly zoophilic boyfriend and their celibate Dalmatian. “So now they have decided the dog is celibate???
”For me, she’s just a good friend that I care about very, very much. There’s no sex,’‘ he said. “So you say, but how do we know that for sure??”
” Everybody should read this…especially those in the position of dealing with animals abusers!! I was always told ‘Prevention is better than cure’. So to prevent a crime in the future, one has to deal with the culprit in the here & now! But the Judicial system is not dealing with animal abusers/killers as they should…why not?”
“It would also help if there was a National Animal Abuse database! Animal abusers could well be future killers…so stop with the ‘slap on the wrist & the suspended sentences’ they do jack shit to prevent the culprit committing future crimes…as is well known & documented. What is said here should apply to the whole world when it comes to dealing with animal abuse!!”
The man who is charged with setting fire to a cat in Bucks County must be severely punished for such a heinous crime (“Bucks man accused of burning cat can keep 2d,” Feb. 2). In addition, he must be prevented from having any contact with any other animals, even if it means depriving his son of another kitten that has been living in the home.
Animal abuse is an ominous sign. In Deadly Serious, which offers an FBIperspective on animal cruelty, Special Agent Alan Brantley recounted numerous profiles of violentcriminalswho had histories of animal abuse.From interviews with other agents, he found that about half of those in prison for murder had maimed andtortured animalswhile youths. And almost all serial killers abused animals as children.
The psychological literature is replete with major studies that have identified the animal/human violence link. When animals are abused, people are at risk. The man who kicks the dog is just warming up. Nine of 10 abusers are male. A batterer’s first victim is often a pet. Among the men involved in both animal and human violence, the most common charges were domestic violence and child abuse. These inseparable forms of abuse must be fought as one battle.
Animal abuse is a national tragedy. We suffer from a myopia regarding the far-reaching implication. The time for corrective measures is overdue.I would suggest a nationwide campaign aimed at treating animal abuse as the serious crime it is. Until the abusers are treated like the criminals they are, we won’t change society’s attitude about the unspeakable nature of this pernicious behaviour. Animal abuse is a warning sign to be heeded. It is not a trivial matter.
Brantley emphasizes the need for stronger anti-cruelty laws and more aggressive enforcement. In a survey commissioned by the Humane Society of the United States in 1997, more than 80 percent of the respondents favoured this concept.
Also, psychiatric intervention is fundamental. Animal cruelty may indicate a family in need of professional help. It may be a symptom of a deeply disturbed family.
The tangled web of animal abuse cannot be isolated. Eighteenth-century philosopher Immanuel Kant said, “He who is cruel to animals become hard also in his dealings with men.” Animal abuse often opens the door to persistent antisocial behaviour toward humans. One’s environment does not excuse this behaviour; it only explains it.
Now we have children killing children. Too often, these youngsters show early and prolific histories of animal abuse. Anthropologist Margaret Mead said, “One of the most dangerous things that can happen to a child is to kill or torture an animal and get away with it.” Stepping in at an early point may very well break the vicious cycle of family violence.
I would urge all Pennsylvanians to contact their state senators and urge passage of House Bill 709, which has already won unanimous approval in the House. The bill, now before the full Senate for a vote, would strengthen the state’s animal-cruelty law in two ways:
Anyone convicted of cruelty to a cat or dog for a second or subsequent time would be guilty of a third-degree misdemeanor, punishable by up to one year in jail and a $2,500 fine. Now, each cat- or dog-cruelty offence is considered a summary violation, punishable by up to 90 days in prison and a $300 fine.
Upon sentencing, the trial judge would be empowered to prohibit or limit the offender from owning, controlling or having custody of animals – or to prevent his or her employment in the business of animal care.
These restrictions could be imposed for the statutory maximum term of imprisonment applicable to the offence even if the offender were sentenced to less than the full term. Now, such restrictions, as in the case of the Bucks County case, can be imposed by a judge only as a condition of bail.
This law would send another firm message that society will not tolerate animal abusers.
