A Wausau man has been charged with a misdemeanor count of getting sexual gratification from an animal after authorities say he admitted to performing sex acts on a horse.

Jared Kreft, 30, was charged last week in Marathon County, WKOW-TV reports (http://bit.ly/1zt92ZY).

His attorney's voicemail was full, and a message seeking comment could not be left by The Associated Press.

District Attorney Kyle Mayo tells WKOW the case is unique.

Kreft has also been charged with possession of drugs and drug paraphernalia.
Should the criminal law prohibit people from engaging in sexual activity with animals? (bestiality)

Yes, cause animals can't give consent

not only must this this sexual deviancy be permitted and praised, all those who support homosexual marriage must demand a new definition for animal husbandry...

equality and fairness

all praise the leviathan

-Imp

Not the same thing imp...obviously animals are like children in that there brain is not developed enough to give their consent.

Yes. Obviously.

We must assume they both enjoy it unless one screams "rape". It's a matter not so much of the civil rights that must include relationships with animals but also animal rights. If animals must give their lives to provide sustenance for humans then, by God, they must be allowed to be the recipient of physical love from people. This is just common sense and common decency in a world that has jumped the shark (and I mean "jumped the shark") .


Personally I believe if some prevert wants to do it with an animal then it's his own business providing the animal isn't physically injured and there are no witnesses and no evidence. Otherwise there must be sanctions for the protection of society against miscreants and perverts. People should be able to walk down a street without fear of seeing their dinner in the arms of another man.

Animals do not HAVE to be dinner.

You 2 are beginning to sound nuts...no pun intended.
