Enumclaw-area animal-sex case investigated
By Jennifer Sullivan
Seattle Times staff reporter
King County sheriff's detectives are investigating the owners of an Enumclaw-area farm after a Seattle man died from injuries sustained while having sex with a horse boarded on the property.
Investigators first learned of the farm after the man died at Enumclaw Community Hospital July 2. The county Medical Examiner's Office ruled that the death was accidental and the result of having sex with a horse.
A surveillance camera picked up the license plate of the car that dropped the man off at the hospital, which led detectives to the farm and other people involved, said sheriff's Sgt. John Urquhart.
Deputies don't believe a crime occurred because bestiality is not illegal in Washington state and the horse was uninjured, said Urquhart.
But because investigators found chickens, goats and sheep on the property, they are looking into whether animal cruelty — which is a crime — was committed by having sex with these smaller, weaker animals, he said.
The farm was talked about in Internet chat rooms as a destination for people looking to have sex with livestock, he said.
"A significant number of people, we believe, have likely visited this farm," said Urquhart.
The Humane Society of the United States intends to use the case during the next state legislative session as an example of why sex with animals should be outlawed in Washington, said Bob Reder, a Humane Society regional director in Seattle.
"This and a few other cases that we have will allow us a platform to talk about sex abuse of animals," Reder said.

July 15, 2005 12:01 PM
UNIONTOWN, Pa. Pennsylvania police say a youth tee-ball coach paid one of his players 25 dollars to throw a baseball at the head of a mentally disabled eight-year-old teammate.
They say witnesses told them that the coach, Mark Downs, didn't want the mentally disabled boy to play in the game because of his disability.
The player he allegedly paid hit the boy in both the head and the groin.
Downs was arraigned today on a number of charges, including criminal solicitation to commit aggravated asault and corruption of minors.
maybe he saw the billybob thornton movie trailers a few too many times.....

Remember kath51 that it's the stories about bad behavior that make the news. The good things that people do for each other never make the news. And animals eat their own. |
